Should I wrap this gift?

So I got my sister laser hair removal treatments. She has had a problem with a patch of hair on her chin for some time now. She always talks about wanting to take care of it but she is a broke college kid.

Should I wrap that? It is the only thing I am getting her....kind of pricey. Do you think it would be embarrassing to open in front of everyone?

    Nobody has to know WHAT she's getting removed, could be leg hair.  If you said in front of everyone it was for her chin hair, that might be a little embarrassing.

    I think it depends on your sister's personality. If you aren't sure I would wrap it but give it to her when she's not in front of everyone. And maybe if she doesn't want people to know you both can tell others it is a massage Gc (if they ask).

    It's a good gift though, right?

    I think it's a great gift. I would be excited if someone who I was close with got me that to her rid of annoying hair. Now if it was a relative I was not close with it might be awkward. :)

    That is a really thoughtful gift!

    I'd give it to her in private. She may not be embarrassed, but perhaps she would be. I wouldn't bother risking it.

    I think it's an awesome gift. I would love it if people were practical about stuff instead of giving us stuff we don't need. I put lipo on my Christmas list ;)

    1) will you be my sister
    2) hope you didn't go to ALC 
    3) I would not give that in front of everyone. She certainly could be getting anything done, not that patch of hair on her chin that everyone would probably assume it's for... but it's probably for that patch of hair on her chin that everyone will assume it's for anyway. KWIM? 
    4) see #1

    also it hurts like a motherfucker! I didn't do chin but holy shit armpits & Brazilian were like the debil!

    My SIL's husband gave her laser hair removal for her chin last year, and she was freaking thrilled. She said she could finally be rid if the family beard.
