Laser hair removal will not work on white, gray, or light blonde hair follicles. Light hair is very difficult to treat on all skin types. Multiple treatment sessions are required, and results are variable.

The laser energy is attracted to the melanin in your hair. The greater the amount of melanin, the better the results. White or gray hair does not contain any melanin and, therefore, does not respond to the treatments. However, some hair that many would call blonde or red actually does contain enough melanin to be treatable. That is precisely why we offer a complimentary consultation, so we can evaluate your hair and skin type and discuss your options.

Your hair will need to be bleached to a pale yellow. If you have dark hair, you may need to bleach your hair twice in order to get to a pale yellow color. You don't want to bleach your hair past this stage, don't leave the bleach in until it is actually white because then you will have damaged your hair beyond the normal bleaching damage. Once your hair is bleached to a pale yellow, you will then need to tone it using a semi-permanent ash/violet based toner. You may need to tone more than once.

Most hair bleaches will lighten your hair in the following stages: black, brown, red, orange, yellow blonde, light blonde, white. Yellow tones can be counteracted by using the relevant Special Effects Toner. Bleaching can seriously damage your hair for further information and help click here

Melanin is the pigment that determines your natural hair color. As we age, the levels of melanin in our body start to decrease which in turn causes your hair to go gray.

The energy in the laser is attracted to the melanin in your hair. Darker hair usually responds better to treatment because it has a higher concentration of melanin. White and gray hair does not contain any melanin and does not respond to treatments. Some blonde and red hair does contain enough melanin to be affected by the laser. When you come in for your consultation we will evaluate your hair and skin type to determine your options.

White or gray hair in any complexion skin cannot be treated successfully with laser hair removal. Since lasers are attracted to the melanin in hair and gray hair has no melanin, lasers are not efficacious in treating gray hair. In fact, some people erroneously think that the laser treatments turned their hair gray. However, the laser has successfully removed the hair with pigment, leaving the gray or white hair remaining.

Lightening dark hair is the most difficult of the color changes. It does the most damage of any of the hair color changes. For this type of service we strongly recommend a professional hairdresser!

Absolutely not. A “boxed” hair color will lighten your hair about 2 shades depending on the brand and strength. Those of you brunettes out there that have tried to go blonde with a boxed drugstore hair color are probably familiar with the brassy orange it will give you when the developer does not have the strength to lighten properly! In order to lighten hair’s natural color more than 2 shades or so, it must first be bleached, which cannot be done with pure plant products.

Yes, we can accept donations of gray hair. Because we only provide hairpieces to children, we cannot use this hair in a hairpiece but will sell it to offset our manufacturing costs.

If you have blonde or red hair you will need to have a consultation with a clinician to determine whether there is enough pigment in the hair for you to have a successful treatment. Grey or white hairs are usually not suitable for this type of treatment, as they usually do not contain sufficient melanin to absorb light. Some people find a number of grey or white hairs remain visible after a course of IPL treatments.

Not exactly... the term "dye" causes a lot of confusion, but dye generally means making the hair darker. To make the hair lighter you must use a special bleach. Hair bleaching is permanent and cannot be rinsed away. It can be dyed back to it's original color however, but the bleach does damage to the hair. In extreme cases, where the hair was dark brown or black and is bleached to blonde, the hair becomes very thin and resembles the texture of cotton.

Yes. In some cases. Hair Grow Miracle supplies nutrition not only to the hair follicles, but also to the melanoctye to generate melanin, a pigment in the hair. As a result of that, some gray hairs can be restored to their original color, but some cannot be restored, such as albinistic white hairs.

Traditional, light-only based hair removal systems are not able to treat blond, gray, red, and white hair at all. This is because these hairs contain little to no melanin. However, the Comet also is able to use radiofrequency to destroy hair follicles, and radiofrequency is a “color blind” technology. Thus, the Comet is the only permanent hair reduction system on the market that is able to treat these types of hair.

The laser energy interacts with pigment or "melanin" in the hair root, and these hair colors either don't have much/any melanin in them, or it is of a type (pheomelanin) that does not absorb light as well as the other form of melanin (eumelanin).

Blonde hair aways gives a very natural result. However, blonde hair is often finer than dark hair which doesn't cover as well. Blonde hair also doesn't show up as well. So generally, blonde hair does need more transplantation to show as much improvement, as dark hair does, hair for hair. Since 10% of hair follicles are in a resting phase and thus not producing hair are you able to locate those follicles and implant those.

Green hair makes it's appearance every summer. With more and more spas and Jacuzzi's becoming popular, it is starting to be a year round event. The green color is most noticeable in blonde hair although it can coat and damage any hair type.. Most people assume it is from the chlorine used to purify the water in pools and spas. Chlorine itself is colorless, but greenish compounds form in the pool/spa environment and are readily absorbed by porous hair strands.

It is white because it has no pigment, melanin gives most people colour in their eyes, skin and hair.
