Laser hair removal works by shooting the laser at your skin and the hair. You have to have hair that absorbs a lot of light, and skin that does not. So if you have dark pigment in your skin, it will burn
I have a somewhat tanned, chocolatey colored butthole, does this mean I can't get laser hair removal on it?
EDIT: It's kind of like the color of a coffee icecream
She is a Targaryen / Viking blend. Shock blonde and light skinned except for leg, pit, and groin hair which is up for laser removal. Just gotta solve the shave a few times so the treatment works.
Those details don't tell me much. But yes, light skin and dark hair should be fine. If you're worried tho, you should be able to just ask a clinic that does this kinda work.
If you're worried about the price, philips makes a portable one called lumea. I haven't tried it myself tho
They aren't worried about her hair color or skin color, she is more worried about them giving her dry shave touch ups so it's better to just get a good shaving result before her appointments. I want to get the right combination of lubricant and razor to minimize her discomfort.
I do some... Non ideal things to clean up my body hair that I would not do on someone else's sensitive areas.
