I was 21 when I first got laser hair removal, and I was mesmerized by the results.
Persian and hairy, I felt like I’d discovered magic. I loved what laser did for me. What I didn’t love was how I was sold the treatment.
I was a college student, and I got pressured into buying a $4,000 package. I didn’t have $4,000. But I signed up anyway and went into debt for it. So yes, my laser ended up costing even more once interest joined the party. Love that for 21-year-old me. Lol.
Years later, when I found myself in the laser industry, I still remembered that sales pitch. When I opened Prickly Spa in South Austin, I knew exactly what I wanted to do differently.
Can you pay for laser hair removal one session at a time?
At Prickly, yes. You book your appointment and pay for that session. There’s no required package to buy before you can start.
I never want someone sitting in our spa doing mental math about a purchase they can’t afford while feeling pressured to say yes. Ask your questions. Look at the prices. Decide when you’re ready.
Why not sell a package if laser needs multiple sessions?
I understand why packages exist. A laser hair removal plan can involve 6 to 12 or more treatments, depending on your hair, area and progress. But needing several appointments doesn’t mean you need to pay for all of them on day one.
Some treatment plans stretch over two years. Spreading the cost across those visits makes it easier to fit laser into your life. I wish someone had offered me that option at 21.
How much does pay-as-you-go laser cost at Prickly?
Our laser hair removal prices range from $79 to $299 per session, depending on the area. Underarms are $79, Brazilian is $199, and full legs are $299 per session.
Your total cost depends on the areas you choose and how many treatments you need. We explain your plan at your first appointment, and you pay one visit at a time.
