Laser Hair Removal – Answers To Frequently Asked Questions

By Mike Jones

How does laser hair removal work?

Laser hair removal systems emit a gentle beam of light that passes through the skin to the hair follicle. The hair absorbs it, the energy from the laser is transformed into heat and the hair follicle is disabled.

How does laser hair removal compare with electrolysis?

Electrolysis can be a tedious, painful process destroying each hair follicle one at a time. This can sometimes require treatment over years at regular intervals.

Laser hair removal on the other hand can treat hundreds of hair follicles simultaneously so the process is much quicker.

Is laser hair removal for anyone?

Coolglide Technology

With CoolGlide’s unique design, there is now the flexibility to treat all skin types with laser hair removal. Before CoolGlide, tanned patients and persons with darker skin could not expect good results from laser hair removal treatment.

A CoolGlide device has a longer wavelength which allows it to treat all skin tones. While patients with fair skin still respond the best, medical studies indicated that patients with tanned or dark skin can now achieve hair reduction equal to fair skinned patients without undesireable side effects.

Other Laser Hair Removal Devices

With some laser hair removal equipment, an absolute requirement is that the hair must be darker than the surrounding skin.

White skin with dark hair responds best. Persons with dark, coarse hair are the easiest to treat as dark hair contains melanin, a dark pigment which attracts the laser light so more laser energy is absorbed. Fewer sessions are needed.

Light colored hair is more difficult to treat and blonde and red hair are very difficult to treat requiring multiple laser hair removal sessions with varied results.

Anyone on a diet high in beta-carotene will need to change eating habits if they want best results from laser hair removal. Beta-carotene, found in vitamin A, carrots, squash and other vegetables produces a yellow or orange color in the skin which absorbs the laser energy and interferes with it reaching the hair follicle.

As beta-carotene can remain in the body for months, an adjustment in diet may be needed well in advance of laser hair removal treatment for optimum results.

Persons with light skin are the easiest to treat, requiring less laser hair removal sessions as the results are faster.

Persons with dark skin or sun tanned skin take longer to get results because melanin, the dark pigment in hair, is also present in skin. Melanin absorbs some of the laser light.

There is the danger of dark skin being burned in these instances so a laser beam with a lower energy level is used. For this reason also a higher level of expertise is required on the part of the laser hair removal clinic.

How long does laser hair removal treatment take?

The time involved with laser hair removal treatment varies from person to person with skin, hair coloring and coarseness of hair all affecting the time.

Here are some estimates which can give an approximate guide.

Back 1½ -3 hours
Shoulders 10-20 minutes
Underarms 1-2 minutes
Bikini Line 8-10 minutes
Upper lip less than 1 minute
Chin 2-3 minutes
Legs 1½ -3 hours

At least 2 or 3 treatments are necessary, and hair that has been waxed or removed with tweezers could need from 5 to 8 treatments.

Why are repeated laser hair removal sessions necessary?

Hair goes through cycles. Anagen refers to the growth stage of hair. Laser hair removal treatment works best on hair that is in the anagen stage.

While one laser hair removal treatment may have long lasting effects, repeated treatments are necessary for best results to catch all the hairs as they enter the anagen stage.

Is laser hair removal safe?

Yes. The laser uses a wavelength of light which passes through the skin. Unlike x-rays, there is no residual left in the body.

Skin may appear pink or red after treatment. This disappears – in some cases after some minutes, in other cases after a few hours, or in still other cases, a few days. Use of cold packs will speed up the recovery time.

Is laser hair removal painful?

This varies from person to person depending on their sensitivity. Some have described the sensation of laser hair removal to a slight sting on the skin. Others say it feels like a pinch on the skin.

When can I expect to see results from laser hair removal?

After the first treatment hair will gradually fall out over the next two months. Repeated laser hair removal treatments are necessary to catch all the hairs in their various stages of growth.

How much does laser hair removal cost?

This depends on the size of the area needing laser hair removal treatment. A consumer guide on laser hair removal treatment gives $500 per treatment session as a reasonable average with 3 to 4 sessions often necessary.

The whole area on the back or the legs can cost considerably more while smaller areas such as the upper lip can cost less. Individual consultations are necessary to establish accurate laser hair removal pricing.

Is Photo-Epilation the same as laser laser hair removal treatment?

Photo-Epilation or pulsed light devices use the same principle as lasers but they are not lasers. An intense pulsed light is used to disable hair follicles with minimal side effects.

It can be effective in hair removal but requires a higher level of skill in operating as it is more difficult to adjust than lasers.

Due to it’s larger spot size, large areas of the body such as the back or legs can be treated rapidly. One study showed a 50 to 60 percent clearance of hair in 12 weeks.

How To Get The Perfect Wedding Hairstyle

By Lydia Cooper

Every bride deserves to look her best on her big day. One way she can achieve this is to perfect her wedding hairstyle. All eyes will be on the bride and everyone should take notice of the way she looks, the way she acts and the way she is dressed; therefore it is essential that she look her best. Getting the wedding hairstyle right is an important part of creating the perfect bridal look, but as there are no rules when it comes to styling bridal hair you can literally do whatever you want!

The way you look on your wedding day will be captured for all time on the wedding photographs and of course you want to look your best. Get the weeding hairstyle right and you are well on your way to looking amazing on your wedding day! A bride should nothing short of perfect on her wedding day, everything must be right from her dress, to her veil, to her shoes, to her makeup, to her hair.

However, finding the perfect wedding hairstyle can be a tricky process for many brides as there are just so many options available. There are lots of things for a prospective bride to consider when picking the wedding hairstyle: should I wear my hair up or down? Should I let my hair grow or just use hair extensions? Should I have my hair curled or straightened?

There is no right or wrong answer when it comes to choosing a weeding hairstyle. This is why many brides struggle with the choice, but it does mean you can choose a hairstyle that you really want and no one will question it! When choosing your wedding hairstyle you need to consider some other factors. Firstly, the wedding dress. The wedding hairstyle should complement the dress and mirror the style that the bride has gone for. It doesn’t matter whether the style of the wedding gown is glamorous, dramatic, simple or elegant; the wedding hairstyle should reflect this style.

When choosing a suitable bridal hairstyle, a bride needs to consider her gown, veil and headpiece. The wedding hairstyle should never compete with the gown; it should not obscure the gown in any way, especially when the bride moves. The wedding hairstyle should also complement the bride’s makeup. As with the gown, the hairstyle should not take any attention away from the bride’s face.

The location of the wedding will have an effect on the wedding hairstyle that the bride chooses. Long, loose, romantic curls are perfect for a garden wedding in the day time. However, a formal updo is more appropriate for a wedding in a grand cathedral or a church taking place in the evening. You also need to consider the weather, for example if the wedding is going to take place on a beach where it could be quite windy, a loose hairstyle could be a bad choice as the wind could ruin your style.

The final thing a bride needs to consider when choosing her wedding hairstyle is what she is going to be doing on the day. After the ceremony the bride will probably be doing a lot of socialising, dancing and dining and will need a hairstyle that is going to last all day and not fall flat. You may also wish to change your hairstyle to something more casual after the ceremony so that is another thing to consider.

Choosing the right wedding hairstyle is a big part of getting your style right on your big day. Once you’ve got your style sorted, you are well on your way to looking amazing on your wedding day!

By Yolanda Nash

Your hair style should be just as elegant as your wedding dress. So just be sure to use your usual stylist that you are comfortable with. Remember this is your big day and you should have a lot of confidence in your stylist. So below I have put together some tips that you and your stylist should put into action. I am sure you can think of other ideas that will benefit you and your stylist so just write them down for later use.

You should plan 6 months in advance. The earlier the better. The earlier you plan the better idea you will have when choosing your hairstyle. Also you will be able to put more of your ideas into action will your stylist.

You should clip out as many hairstyles as possible out of magazines and discuss these styles with your stylist.

Conditioner is a must. You should start a every other day conditioning treatment. Use luke warm water instead of hot water when washing hair. Hot water damages the hair if used frequently.

Ask your stylist of some of the good points of your hair and ask them for suggestions.

Every time you go to your stylist take a camera with you so you can take several pictures of the style and use as a reference. Show this picture to your family and friends and ask them for their honest opinion.

Stay away from harsh styling methods such as dying and bleaching atleast 4 months before the wedding.

When your hairstyle is chosen have a simple trial run with your stylist atleast a month or two before the wedding.

Book your stylist after your style has been finalized and a trial run has been performed.

If you are getting your hair styled the day of the wedding make sure you wash and condition your hair the night before. Just washed hair makes it harder for your stylist to manage and style your hair

Make sure to bring your brides emergency kit with you to the wedding. In your emergency kit you should have all styling necessities. Your necessities should include bobby pins, hair brushes, hairspray, mousse etc.

Just remember whatever style you choose be confident and know that you are beautiful.
