Shaving between laser hair removal treatments

The only thing that is recommended between Laser Hair Removal treatment is shaving. You will notice that the frequency in the need to shave will decrease as your treatments continue.

Shaving in between laser treatments is ok

It is ok to shave in between laser treatments. You can tell if it is working when the frequency of your shaving changes. If you need to shave just as frequently now as you did before starting the laser hair removal, then it is not working very well. Regards
