Can i take my 10 year old for laser hair removal? she is having kids at school make fun of her and i don't want it to influence her self esteem!

Generally no: Laser hair removal is usually only done after 18 years old. The skin and hair is too immature for proper laser safety and effect at ten years old. Instead, try bleaching or waxing the hair until she's old enough for laser therapy.
