“Very pleased with the laser loft! I ended up here because the last company I was using closed mid treatment for me. The laser loft has far superior lasers. They were less painful and way more effective. The technicians are very diligent in covering the entire area so you won't end up with missed patches of hair. It's been a great experience and I wish I knew about them from the beginning!” - M.B.

“Amazing place! I’ve been going to the Laser Loft for almost 4 years now and have worked with Kelly and now Sara. All of them have been so kind and knowledgeable. I moved away and still drive 3 hours there for my appointments because they are the best! I used to have dark facial hair that I was so uncomfortable and insecure about, but now I am much more confident and even able to wear my hair up without worrying! I highly recommend them for your laser hair removal needs!” - E.M.
