Once upon a time, the only way to get rid of unwanted hair was to yank, shave, or wax it away – a cycle of pain, stubble, and irritation that never seemed to end. But, a miracle happened and science stepped in and said, “Enough is enough!” And thus, the magic of laser hair removal was born. 

But how did we go from old-school razors to the ultra-high-tech, pain-minimized treatments like the ones we use at BARE & PURE? Let’s go through the motions and see the story of hair removal – from the 60’s to today!

Hair in the Swinging Sixties!

Picture this: It’s the 1960s, and lasers are fresh on the scene, mostly being used for science experiments and, probably, villainous plans in spy movies. But in the ‘70s and ‘80s, scientists started realizing that lasers could target and destroy hair follicles—without setting the whole face on fire. The problem? Early lasers were kind of like a bad boyfriend: unreliable, unpredictable, and sometimes just plain painful.

Fast forward to the ‘90s, when the first FDA-approved laser hair removal system hit the market. It was a game-changer, but there was still a catch: it worked best for people with light skin and dark hair. Anyone outside of that combination? Not so lucky. But don’t worry—beauty tech was just getting started.

Fast Forward to 2000: When things got smooth!

As the 2000s rolled in, we saw a major shift in smoothness. Laser hair removal became faster, more effective, and (thankfully) much less painful. Newer lasers meant that people with a wider range of skin tones could finally say goodbye to endless shaving and hello to long-lasting smoothness.

And let’s talk about pain for a second. If you tried laser hair removal in the early days, you might remember feeling like a thousand rubber bands were snapping against your skin. Today? Most treatments are virtually pain-free, with cooling technology making the process way more comfortable. Oh, and we can zap an entire leg in under 30 minutes now. Talk about an upgrade.
