What does laser hair removal on your head do to you? Would it kill my brain cells?

February 18, 2017
Asked By:balboa12 in Everett, WA

I heard that getting your whole head of hair with laser hair removal is a bad choice cause it kills your brain cells and possible other stuff that might make you retarded and other things. I was wondering what it would do to me if I get it cause I've read it is possible to do it without bad things happening to you.
