You know how the church tells us to "accept the bodies" as well as "live with what God gave you"?

I don’t think it’s any different than shaving or waxing on the sin scale, and I don’t think shaving your legs is a sin. Here’s my laser hair removal lessons in case it helps you any =)
Okay… science answer:
You grow in at least 80% of your hair during puberty. When you have laser hair removal the hairs it kills will never grow again. But you still have up to 20% of your normal thickness that will grow in throughout the rest of your life. So people get touch up sessions every 3-5 years after their big 6 treatments. You need about 6 treatments, one each 2 months for a year, because the hair grows in different stages and it can only kill hair in the active growth stage. The laser works by targeting dark color (the hair follicle) and passing through light color (the skin) the hair and skin have to be very different shades of color for the hair to work. The darker and coarser the hair and lighter the skin, the better results you will have.
Okay… Personal Experience:
I’ve had 3 out of my 6 treatments so far. It HURTS! It’s like being poked with a sewing needle over and over, but it’s not as painful as a tattoo, and that’s not as painful as childbirth, maybe that can put the pain in perspective for you =) I’ve had my legs, underarms, and bikini area done. When you get your bikini area done they do ALL of it! Including spreading your butt and vaginal lips apart to laser all the cracks… It’s sorta awkward. After the 3 treatments I’ve had so far I’ve lost about 60% of leg hair, 80% bikini hair, and 80% underarms hair. It’s because the underarms hair is the thinnest and the leg hair is the coarsest. But the legs are the most painful. The more it hurts the better it works.
I spent this much for 6 treatments in each area:
Bikini-$750
Underarms-$750
Legs (toes to bikini)-$2,500
Email me if you have any more questions about it!
It had better not be, because I’ve been saving up for it!
Nope.
Yes and no wearing makeup or cutting your hair!
No definitely not . I follow my conscience not god.Some religions believe in faith healing as contrasted to medical care and they suffer the consequences .
That is not a sin! Not at all.
"Live with what god gave you?" If that’s the case then most people are going to hell with all of the braces and heart transplants and all.
No its not….neither is cutting your hair or wearing make up. People are so ignorant over this matter. The Godly women before the new testament did not cut their hair wore make up or jewlery in order to distinguish themselfs from the Worldly women not because it was a sin. Altho some churches have their doctrine like that…does not mean its a sin. When i first stated going to church when i got saved i wore skirts and no make up and things like that. Not because I believed it was a sin, but because in my heart i felt that i was honoring the Lord. Each person has a different connection with the Lord… You just have to feel wat is right and do wat the Lord wants you to do. Dont rely on man but rely on God for understanding.
This is what sort of confuses me too.Do we have to accept ourselves as God made us.Does he get angry if we change things and better ourselves etc and think were being disobedient to him?
And the church also says things like if God gave a women natural beauty thats great and everything but women shouldnt use makeup and accept themselves as they were made.But i think thats horrible just say you have two daughters and ones beautiful and ones "ugly" do you have to say bad luck God made your sister stunning and you have to just accept your ugly and unnoticed and wear no makeup and deal with it etc?
