I’ve been getting laser hair treatments on my legs

Question:
I’ve been getting laser hair treatments on my legs and bikini area for about 2 years, with just a few touch ups now and again after my initial treatment. Now, when I go, all I have left to remove are these little straggly hairs. It almost doesn’t seem worth it to go in for just these few hairs. Will I just have to keep getting laser treatments or shaving these hairs forever?

Answer:
After two years of laser hair removal treatments you with what sounds like very good results, I think that you would agree that there will be occasional hairs that will simply not respond to the laser no matter how high the energy is. I would suggest either shaving or waxing these small hairs rather than continuing laser hair removal treatments unless you are touching up other areas at the same time.
