    So I go to a well established beautician for waxing, very good service. Enquired about laser and is three times the price of two other places advertised in the advertiser...Do you really get what you pay for with this I wonder?

    Go for the cheapest.
    They all use the same lasers:
    Argon: 488 nm (DeepSkyBlue) or 514.5 nm (Cyan) (no longer used for hair removal)
    Ruby laser: 694.3 nm (OrangeRed) (no longer used for hair removal; only safe for patients with very pale skin) [10]
    Alexandrite: 755 nm (Red) (most effective on pale skin and not safe on darker skin at effective settings)
    Pulsed diode array: 810 nm (Near-Infrared) (for pale to medium type skin)
    Nd:YAG laser: 1064 nm (Near-Infrared) (made for treating darker skin types, though effective on all skin types)
