⚡️ **MEET CHERYL — THE FACE BEHIND THE CURRENT ELEMENT** ⚡️

Hi, I’m Cheryl! 👋🏻

I’m the owner and electrologist behind **The Current Element**, where I help clients work toward permanent hair removal through personalized, one-on-one electrolysis treatments.

I know that unwanted hair can be more than just a cosmetic concern. It can affect confidence, comfort, and the way you feel in your own skin. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable, respected, and completely at ease throughout the process. 🤍

Electrolysis is precise, individualized work — and every client’s journey is a little different. Whether you’re dealing with unwanted facial hair, hormonal hair growth, PCOS-related hair growth, or simply hair you’re ready to stop thinking about, I’m here to help.

✨ All skin tones
✨ All hair colors
✨ Personalized treatments
✨ Permanent hair removal

I’m so excited to introduce you to **The Current Element** and to continue helping people feel more confident in their own skin.

⚡️ So… how does electrolysis actually work?

If you’ve ever wondered what happens during an electrolysis appointment, here’s the simple version:

✨ A tiny probe is guided into the natural opening of the hair follicle.

✨ A small amount of electrical current is delivered to the follicle.

✨ The treatment targets the cells responsible for hair growth.

✨ The treated hair is then gently released from the follicle.

Unlike laser and IPL, electrolysis works by treating individual hair follicles and is used for permanent hair removal. It can also be used regardless of hair color or skin tone.

And yes — there is a lot more to it than just “zapping a hair.” 😉 Precision, technique, timing, and experience matter.

There is conflicting data as to the percent of population who are allergic to gold often result in conflicting numbers. Even so, we know the following to be true:
* Individuals are allergic to gold are often also allergic to other metals such as nickel and cobalt.
* Because of this confluence, it may not be immediately apparent whether someone is having an allergic reaction to gold, or if it is present in combination with other metals, the other metals in the alloy.
* People who are allergic to gold are almost always knowledgeable about this allergy by the time they reach adulthood.
Because of this, it is prudent for electrologists to include questions about nickel AND gold allergies on the client intake form.

How’s your insertions?
Incorrect insertions and the wrong needle size will cause, bruising, blanching and scarring.

Hello everyone, I have an Electrolysis client that has pretty reactive skin. After her first treatment she some mild redness and swelling in the treatment area, nothing abnormal though. The redness went away by the next morning but the swelling lasted for about 3 days.

I have been using thermolysis only with Protec Isoblend probes. She has very coarse, stubborn hairs that have very large roots. I have adjusted the settings several times trying to drop it as low as possible because while still being effective. A small bit of lymphatic fluid comes up with each treatment for almost every hair unless I drop the settings to low to treat well.

Each hair removal seems to be leaving a small hole at the skin surface, no matter what I change. I even changed the probe to an insulated probe and worked with the settings again and still got the same results.

She is aware she has sensitive skin and doesn't mind the treatments or post treatment swelling, but I'm concerned about pitting. Do I dare try blend? Or could that be worse? Thanks in advance for the suggestions!

One challenge faced by electrologists is helping new clients understand why multiple treatments may be needed for "the same" hairs. So... wow them with facts! And keep client compliance high while targeting those anagen hairs during their active growth phase!
