This particular laser, can travel through the epidermis. Which is the top layer of skin. Into the dermis, which is the second layer of skin. And where hair follicles grow. This particular laser targets pigmentation.
And since the hair follicles, have the pigmentation from the colour of the hair. The laser is able to see the hair follicle. And then, destroy it with the concentrated beam of light.
Most people say that they feel the sensation of the heat from the laser. As well as the sensation of the hair being destroyed. And that it feels almost like a zap, or like they are being snapped. By a rubber band on their skin.
