The Ultimate Laser Hair Removal Guide
So summer has crept up on you, bikini season is around the corner and you’re dreading it. If this is you, laser hair removal may be just the permanent beauty treatment solution you need.
If you’re anything like us, you’ve been dreaming of laser hair removal and all its benefits for years. We’d love to say goodbye to slippery and fiddly razors, painful waxing and threading, and messy depilatory products and say hello to silky smooth legs. Of course, there’s nothing wrong if you don’t want to get rid of hair but if you’re ready to say goodbye to the hair and the hassle, laser hair removal is the permanent and pain-free solution for you.
What is Laser Hair Removal?
In short, laser hair removal is an advanced technology that offers men and women the opportunity to permanently remove their face and body hair.
It does this by using a super strong (but safe when used correctly) laser light that gets absorbed by the pigment of the hair and destroys the hair follicle.
It’s cost-efficient, relatively pain free and is a highly effective treatment for permanently removing hair. Our team is highly trained to undergo this beauty treatment safely and comfortably. Win-win.
What Type of Hair is Best for Laser Hair Removal?
The best type of hair for laser hair removal is thick, coarse, and dark in pigment however, thanks to advances in laser hair technology, nowadays other hair colours and types work well too.
However, unfortunately, if you’ve got very fine hair, are a redhead or have grey hair, the laser cannot, in effect, find the follicle as it doesn’t show up dark enough, and so if this is you, you aren’t suitable for laser hair removal just yet.
Is Laser Hair Removal Permanent?
Yes, this type of treatment is permanent as when the laser hits the hair follicle it destroys it, meaning it can’t grow back.
However, each hair on your body is in a different growth cycle, so you have to have multiple treatments to target each section of hair at each growth stage.
You should start to see thinning of your hair and slow regrowth from just one session but for full removal you will require multiple sessions.
Benefits of Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal boasts many advantages, from permanent hair removal to omitting the need for fiddly razors, wax strips, and hair-removal creams – and don’t even get us started on epilating. This type of permanent hair removal treatment is also cost-effective overall and more ecological, given the amount of plastic, disposable razors you’ll no longer be needing once treatment is complete.
Laser hair removal can also help with in-grown hairs, Keratosis Pilaris (strawberry legs), and improve skin tone and texture. So do you want a low-maintenance and non-invasive treatment to get your hands on all these benefits?

Can Laser Hair Removal Help with Medical Conditions?
As well as cosmetic purposes, there are many medical reasons that someone may want to have permanent laser hair removal. For example, an imbalance of hormones can cause excess hair growth or Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) can also cause unsightly hair growth that many women wish to remove.
Does Laser Hair Removal Hurt?
Truthfully, yes, you certainly feel the laser when you’re having permanent hair removal but it’s not painful, as such. It’s regularly likened to having an elastic band flicked on your skin. Strange and uncomfortable? Yes. Bearable? Also yes.
How Do I Prepare for Laser Hair Removal?
