Full body hair removal is an increasingly popular beauty treatment, especially as more people seek permanent, effective hair removal. Women and men of all skin types and tones are looking to achieve smooth, beautiful skin that they can feel comfortable in. The good news is that most people can certainly be candidates for laser hair removal. However, those with very light or blonde hair are more challenging to treat. That’s because when it comes to permanent hair removal, it all starts with the pigment. But with the right treatment, lighter-haired clients can toss their razors and cancel their waxing appointments for good.
Traditional laser hair removal works when the heat created by the laser focuses on the pigment in hair, making it unable to grow. The darker the hair’s pigment, or color, the more the heat is attracted to the hair follicle and the more effective the treatment becomes. But with hair that has low amounts of pigment, like blonde, red, or grey, the process isn’t as efficient and hair often regrows.
But there is a solution. New innovations in laser hair removal technology have led to advances with higher intensity lasers that can target the limited pigment and still effectively disable the hair follicle from producing more hair.
At Body Details, we use the Candela Genlemax Pro Laser to treat all skin and hair types. This top-of-the-line laser is effective for light hair in the hands of an experienced laser technician. We also use the Fitzpatrick skin type chart to sort you into one of six hair and skin combination categories, which will help us better address your needs. The right technician will know how to provide the most effective, customized treatment for you.
Even though the hair is finer, thinner, and lighter, blondes still need to properly prepare for laser hair removal. Without the proper preparation, the effectiveness will decrease and the results will not be what you’re looking for.
