INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Laser hair removal works best on light skin with dark hair. If your hair is too light, the laser won’t be able to find your hair follicles (which is how the laser works). If your skin is too dark, the laser might confuse your skin for hair follicles, which could hurt or even permanently burn you. New lasers, like the Nd:YAG, work better with darker skin types, but make sure you call your local laser hair removal location and confirm they have the Nd:YAG laser. The average price for a laser hair removal depends on whether you want a bikini or Brazilian laser hair removal. The average price of a bikini laser hair removal session in the US is $150, but it can be as high as $450. The average price of a Brazilian laser hair removal session in the US is $250, but it can be as high as $500. Laser hair removal requires that hair follicles be intact and inside your skin, and waxing removes hair follicles. Make your laser hair removal most successful by refraining from waxing for at least one month prior to your removal. In order to get the most out of your laser hair removal experience, you need to shave all of your vaginal hair the night before. Avoid using hair removal creams to remove hair before laser hair removal, as the chemicals can interact and cause irritation or pain. You might feel nervous or even mildly wary about being naked from the waist down in front of another person, but don’t worry! Your laser hair removal technician is a professional. If you need to distract yourself from the awkwardness, focus on the sound the laser is making. If your laser hair removal technician ever does or says anything inappropriate, end the session as soon as you can and report them to a manager or the police. Laser hair removal generally feels like slight, mildly uncomfortable prickling. If you feel any pain or intense heat, ask your technician to turn down the intensity. Don’t worry about “not getting your money’s worth” -- if you feel prickling, it’s working! Laser hair removal isn’t immediately visible. It takes about 2 weeks before the removal starts showing effects, and until that point, your hair will be growing normally. After 2-3 weeks, your hair will start falling out. At this point, it’s ok to shave. Laser hair removal can require anywhere from 1 to 10 treatments to fully and permanently remove hair. The average treatment length is 6 treatments.

SUMMARY: Don’t plan on laser hair removal if you have light hair or dark skin. Budget for laser hair removal. Do not wax for at least 4 weeks before your laser hair removal. Shave (don’t use cream) before your treatment. Let go of any awkward feelings. Tell your technician if you feel intense pain. Don’t be surprised when your hair falls out. Prepare for multiple treatments.
