Preparing for your Laser Hair Removal Appt

So you’ve decided to get laser hair removal and of course picked us - I mean we are the best price in Toronto for laser along with no memberships and no packages. Let’s get you ready for your laser appt:

The machine has cool touch technology so don’t worry about pain, you likely won’t feel anything
If you are someone who has been doing waxing up until you decided to try laser hair removal cancel your next wax appt - you will shaving from here on until all the hair is gone
Shave the day before, the laser finds the hair follicle and kills the bulb of the follicle, shaving gives the laser the opportunity to find the follicle
Don’t use creams or anything else right before your appt
No tanning, that is why most people start laser hair removal in the fall so the skin is not exposed to the sun to get a tan. They do laser fall and winter and by the time the spring comes the laser sessions are complete.

What to Expect:

If you have tried laser hair removal before and it hurt then that means the salon you went to is using an older machine. The new machines come with cool touch technology to make the experience pain free. The new machines also come with a very large “head” so the laser technician can do larger areas making the appt much faster. You can expect that if you did underarms, full leg and brazilian to take less than an hour.

There is no downtime, you can go back to your regular day right after the appt. Avoid saunas, creams, hot hot baths for 24 hrs.

The laser attacks the bulb of the hair follicle and kills it, when it dies it sheds off like a dead skin cell - you won’t see it. You will notice you are patchier in the areas you had done even after one session.

From now on shave the hair when you need to and of course shave before your next appt

Book your next session before you go so you stay on track, we recommend every 4 weeks for the first 2 to 3 sessions then 6 weeks after that. As you progress you will notice you have less and less hair that grows
