Is there laser hair removal for redheads?

As long as there is dark hair, laser can be effective, but it doesn’t work on light hair. If you are a red head with dark hair, then you are a candidate for laser hair removal.

Thank you for your question! Laser hair removal is the process of removing unwanted hair by means of exposure to pulses of laser light that destroy the hair follicle. Laser does not work well on light-colored hair, red hair, grey hair, white hair, as well as fine hair of any color, such as vellus. Laser works best on dark hair. In order for the laser to get attracted to the hair, the hair needs to be dark in color. Patients with blonde, red, or grey hair are out of luck with the laser. Dyeing the hair does not help either because the hair under the skin would still be red. A permanent solution for you will be doing electrolysis. Best of luck!
