After moving to Portland, OR two years ago, I was in search of an Electrologist to achieve some facial hair reduction that had started to recur after several years. I was very fortunate to find Barbara Failing at Broadway East Electrology on my first attempt and could not be more satisfied with my experience.
I am of Indian descent and have always had a problem with excess face and body hair because of my genetics. I had gotten electrolysis in my teenage years and in my early twenties that was fairly effective but as I've entered my thirties, I have noticed some of the facial hair recurring. I have been going to Barbara for a little over a year anywhere from every 4-12 weeks depending on both of our schedules and I have noticed obvious hair reduction in this time period.
Barbara begins each new client relationship with a free consultation in which she describes in great detail the process of electrolysis and answers all questions and concerns. She is extremely professional, always on time, considerate and very kind. Her office is clean and she practices sanitary technique without fail. She is very flexible with regard to client preferences and tries very hard to make her workplace a comfortable and accepting environment. Additionally, she is a very conscientious provider and her integrity and commitment to her profession are obvious from the first meeting with her.
As a physician myself, I know how difficult it is to find the combination of great knowledge base, proper technique and great bedside manner in a health care provider and I have been very impressed with Barbara in all these regards.
Finally, her rates are more reasonable than most providers in the greater Portland area.
I have been very happy with my experience at Broadway East Electrology and will continue to see Barbara for my hair removal needs while I am in Portland.
Pros: Professionalism, Knowledge Base, Effective Hair Reduction
