Why is continuity important in electrolysis sessions?

Continuity in electrolysis sessions is crucial because it ensures that hair is treated in the appropriate growth cycle. Hair goes through different phases—anagen (growth), catagen (transitional), and telogen (resting). Electrolysis is most effective during the anagen phase when the hair is actively growing and is firmly rooted in the follicle. Consistent and regular treatments allow the electrologist to catch hairs as they enter this active growth phase, leading to more effective and permanent hair removal.

If sessions are spaced too far apart, clients may miss the opportunity to treat hairs at the optimal time, which can prolong the overall treatment duration and effectiveness. Maintaining a regular schedule also helps build rapport with the client and keeps the treatment process on track toward achieving desired results.
