its the reference.

the only part on the body that is bushy like a sheep is that area.

maybe it wasnt the intention but it is definitely the imagery for this particular animal

I've heard a lot of euphemisms for that area but none involving farm animals. IDK I think this is a stretch.

I think it's funny, but it's like an ad against laser hair removal, because the sheep definitely looks better before it's lasered.

That’s a strange assumption. Or they have a different sense of humor and taste than you.

I saw the ad last week and found it very distasteful. Did not yet see this week's ad but it sounds even worse.
I see copywriters and graphic artists busy on Linkedin posting how they are so out of the box and a plain ad is a bad ad and I find it terrible. Not all obviously but to any graphic artist out there please keep in mind your audience and their sensitivities and not just the clicks or that yay now you got us to talk about it.

Because while I may have noticed that sheep ad and I did talk about it I am NOT going there for my laser.

Ewww!!

And no , its meant to make you imagine a hairy sheep ie a hairy body, and then the end result which is a clean shaven sheep ie a smooth body.
Gross!

A relaxing peaceful background would be nicer, to advertise their surrounding.


Every frum ad for women is obscure like that lately. It’s a bit jarring as an MO observer, some Lakewood and Monsey clothing and sheital companies advertise in our papers with pictures of an empty store not even showing the clothes or hint to the services.

I don't see the bid deal. Honestly when I think of Lazer hair removal I think of my dark facial hair.

I don’t find it offensive but it is cringy.

I don't get it. Women get laser for all areas.


The optics were not the same tone as typical laser ads.

If you think of laser hair removal as eeewwww, then ok, I guess this ad just reinforces that. But if you agree with laser hair removal in general, surely laser hair removal is just that - hair removal. Obviously YOU dont have as much hair as a sheep, but you still want it removed - just like a sheep wants to be shorn!

The whole point of an ad is to get you to notice it and to spent time talking about it with others - especially the controversial ones. They have us all hook, line and sinker. Well done ad company.

Just for the fun of it, according to Google, sheep are terrified of being pinned down for shearing. Sheep do not enjoy being shorn though they do benefit from it. (Sheep do not understand, this is for your own good.)

Many women don't enjoy or bother with laser removal. They may do it themselves at home by plucking eyebrows, removing their lip hair with wax strips, shavers in some areas, and not really caring about others.

I personally disagree. I have done laser and don't think of it as ewww. I found this ad to just be distasteful the optics just do not convert me into a customer. Which is the goal of marketing not to just have us Talk about it.
In comparison there is another ad by Whisper in the Lakewood papers and that is a calm tone making me think I am going to a spa and a place with top of the line equipment. While there may not be a whole thread about it I would go there as a customer today.
