    I had no idea, I don’t really think of my family as having dark hair - but our hair is brown. Why are blonde hair follicles unaffected by laser treatment?

    Edit: it seems like it’s less to do with them being unaffected and more to do with how the targeting system for the lasers work? That seems like something that could be improved one day.



  • If you’re interested in dealing with them once and for all, there are treatments (I think they use lasers) that will kill the hair follicles and prevent them from growing hair anymore.

    My mom had it done on her legs and she hasn’t had to shave since, not sure how expensive it is but it might be worth looking.
