How are IPL/ laser hair removal and skin tone related?
IPL/ Laser Hair Removal, Skin Tone, and The Fitzpatrick Scale
The treatment approach to IPL/ Laser hair removal depends on skin tone.The most commonly used guide for selecting the skin type for LASER and IPL treatments is the Fitzpatrick Scale. This guide helps us predict the skin’s rate of aging, risk of cancer, and reaction to UV exposure. The Fitzpatrick Scale ranges from level 1 – 6, with level one being the lightest and level six the darkest.
Different treatment approaches for different skin tones
Levels 1-3
Because lighter skin tones contain less melanin, they absorb less energy and release it faster. As a result, they are less likely to react adversely following LASER and IPL treatments. In addition, less energy absorption allows us to use higher settings in the early stages of treatment which translates into a higher rate of hair reduction.
Levels 4-6
On the other hand, melanin-rich tones absorb more energy. Therefore, a lower setting is required, especially in the early stages of the treatment course. Easing the skin into the treatment reduces the risk of burns and hyperpigmentation until it builds tolerance to the energy. Although we can safely treat darker skin, the rate of hair reduction decreases in darker skin tones.
In short, advanced IPL / LASER operating systems can effectively treat a wide range of skin tones. However, there are limitations to treating beyond a Level 5. Adverse reactions such as burns and permanent scarring can occur due to the pigment in the skin absorbing the energy emitted by the laser.

Michelle R.- EyEnvy user
EyEnvy Conditioner is great for use on sparse areas of the lash & brow line to help promote new hair growth.
Processing, cleansing, cosmetics, and sun exposure can cause moisture loss which can cause premature colour fading and brittle lashes. The added nutrients in EyEnvy are perfect for post-care as they lock in moisture and extend the life and efficacy of your service!

The Lash Lift is loved by people who desire the appearance of longer, more feminine lashes. The lash lift does not add lashes. Instead, it curls the natural lashes using a gentle lash perm solution.
Different sizes of silicone pads are used to “lift” each lash individually and create a subtle, natural looking curl, giving the illusion of length for a full, natural yet perfect look.
This treatment takes 45 minutes with results lasting 6-8 weeks.
Do lash lifts ruin your eyelashes?
While the perm solution used is safe for most people, it is recommend that clients wait 12 weeks between lash lifts. This allows you hair to recover and regenerate new growth.
The adhesive used contains latex. As a result, people with sensitivity to latex are not recommended to have the service.
If you have ever reacted to artificial lash glue used for strip lashes, you are at risk of having a reaction. Typical allergic reaction will cause the eyes to swell for up to 72 hours.
Lash care tip: Use EyEnvy Lash and Brow Conditioner after a lash lift. EyEnvy conditions and hydrates hair follicles for stronger-than-ever lashes. It contains a combination of nutrient rich vitamins and peptides that elevate hydration and nourish the hair shaft.
