🎙️ SEASON 3 FINALE IS HERE!
You know how to treat the follicle.
But do you know how to build the business around it?

For the Season 3 finale of Electrolysis Unplugged, Stephanie & Joanie are breaking down:
⚡ How to plan your electrolysis business
⚡ Home studio vs. salon suite vs. commercial space
⚡ Business names, LLCs & EINs
⚡ Business banking & bookkeeping
⚡ Insurance and protecting your practice
⚡ Equipment and startup expenses
⚡ Fixed costs vs. variable costs
⚡ How much money you should have saved
⚡ Pricing, booking percentages & income projections
⚡ Planning for growth without expecting Day 1 to look like Year 3

And yes — we’re sharing some of the mistakes we’ve made along the way, too.

Your first treatment room doesn’t have to be your forever treatment room.

Your first schedule doesn’t have to be full.

Your first version of your business doesn’t have to be perfect.

But you need a plan.

We’re closing Season 3 by taking everything back to one big question: What are you building?

We are back with Season 4 Oct 18th!

What does a “normal” healing response after electrolysis actually look like?

In this archive episode of Electrolysis Unplugged, Stephanie Shields and Joanie Gonella unpack electrolysis as a controlled dermal injury and explain why inflammation is part of the repair process, not automatically a complication.

They break down common post-treatment responses like redness, swelling, tingling, and small pustules, including what can be expected during healing and what may signal concern. The conversation also looks at why androgen-dense areas like the upper lip and chin can respond more dramatically, especially when endocrine factors such as PCOS or insulin resistance are involved.

The key takeaway: inflammation isn’t the enemy. Misinterpretation is.

Clinical judgment comes from understanding the biology behind what you see, knowing when a response is proportional, and recognizing when something needs a closer look.

We are so proud of our electrology community. 💙

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.

We have officially surpassed our first survey participation milestone—and exceeded our initial hopes for the number of responses we would receive. We know that is because of your advocacy, your willingness to share this project, and your commitment to advancing our profession.

And an especially important thank you to your clients.

Thank you to every client who took the time to complete the survey, who was willing to share their experience and their story, and who trusted us with their perspective. Their voices are at the heart of what we are trying to learn.

We also want to thank everyone who helped extend the survey beyond our immediate electrology community. Every time you shared the survey with a colleague, another clinic, a client, a professional organization, or someone who could help it reach another person, you expanded the reach of this project.

Please keep the surveys coming! Every additional response helps us build a broader picture of the experiences we are studying.

As we begin gathering and reviewing our findings, we will continue sharing updates about what we are learning. This work will help inform the research poster we are preparing to present at WPATH this November.

Please follow the Electrology Education Coalition (E2C) for updates as this project continues.

To our electrologists, our clients, our colleagues, and everyone who has helped carry this survey further than we could have on our own: thank you.

This milestone is a powerful reminder that when we share our experiences, advocate for one another, and work collectively toward better understanding

we are stronger together.

With gratitude,
Stephanie & Joanie

Real-world electrology questions don’t always come with simple answers.

In this archive episode of Electrolysis Unplugged, Stephanie Shields and Joanie Gonella revisit a Mentorship Hour filled with practical questions from working electrologists, including:

Superbills + consistent billing policies
Post-treatment skin reactions after blend
Stubborn hairs that don’t want to release
Hair growth changes during and after menopause

This conversation is all about clinical judgment, clear client communication, protecting the skin, and making thoughtful treatment decisions when there isn’t a one-size-fits-all answer.

Want to be part of these conversations live?

Mentorship Hour gives electrologists a place to bring real client cases, treatment questions, business concerns, and those “what would you do?” moments directly into the discussion.

Laser doesn’t replace electrolysis, and electrolysis doesn’t have to compete with laser.

When we understand the strengths and limitations of each method, they can work together to better serve our clients. The key is knowing when laser may be effective, when electrolysis is necessary, and why electrologists must remain part of the conversation.

With continued research, education, and more professionals speaking up, we can help clients make informed decisions based on their individual hair removal needs.

This isn’t about being anti-laser. It’s about understanding why electrolysis matters.

⏳ 5 DAYS LEFT TO PARTICIPATE & SHARE!

We are preparing to close the first phase of our anonymous electrolysis research survey so we can begin analyzing the data and completing our first poster and research paper.

📅 Please participate or share the survey before September 15, 2026.

The Electrology Education Coalition (E2C) is conducting research on the psychological and personal impact of electrolysis. These findings will help inform our upcoming WPATH research presentation and our continued research into the role and impact of electrolysis for:

• Gender-affirming care
• PMOS/PCOS
• Hirsutism
• Hormonally influenced hair growth
• Other reasons people seek permanent hair removal

IF YOU ARE AN ELECTROLYSIS CLIENT:
We would greatly appreciate your participation. The survey is completely anonymous and open to anyone who has received electrolysis, regardless of the reason for treatment.

IF YOU ARE AN ELECTROLOGIST:
Please share the survey with your clientele. We are hoping to gather responses representing a broad range of clients, treatment experiences, and reasons for seeking electrolysis.

The survey explores the impact of electrolysis on areas including confidence, emotional well-being, social comfort, daily life, and overall quality of life.

🔗 ANONYMOUS SURVEY:
https://form.jotform.com/Electrology_Education/psychological-impact-survey

Please participate and share before September 15, 2026.

Every response helps us better understand, quantify, and document the broader impact of electrolysis & and helps build the evidence base for the work our profession does every day.

Thank you to everyone who has already participated or helped us share this research.
