Laser hair removal works best for people with light skin and dark hair.

There are advertisements that claim that any type of skin and hair color combination can be treated successfully with laser hair removal, but most websites and reputable clinics say that the hair must be darker than the skin and red or blond hair will not respond as well to the laser.

Tanned patients with dark hair should wait until their tan fades completely before they are treated.
