I thought since she's a child and has a smaller area to work with, it will 1) cost me less 2)it will take less time to do.
It will also spare her future costs and hassles

I think that you should consult a doctor first. They might not even allow a procedure like that for a girl so young. I did look up some information on laser hair removal and here are some things you should probably consider.
1) Not all patients find that it is painless.
2) Long term effectiveness has not been established.
3) Multiple treatements are often required.
4) Improper treatment can cause burns, lesions, skin discoloration that can last several months, or patchy/patterened growth.
5) The lasers affect other skin structures and long term effects are yet unknown constituting an unknown risk.
With these things in mind I would strongly suggest that you wait until your daughter is old enough to consider these "issues" herself and judge for herself whether she wants to take that risk. It would be highly unfair if something went wrong with such an optional treatement and she was permantently damaged because of it. I'm not saying don't do it, but make sure you do your research and feel that it is something that really needs to be done. Good Luck.

She's very young to be shaving let alone having laser removal. Maybe in 5 years or so? Hope I helped!

Are you serious? Are you trying to teach your child that vanity = self-worth? Let you kid be a kid. It is akward for everyone, but it makes us who we are... PS Good luck finding a Laser Hair Removal place to laser your 6 year old...

Hmm, you have a point there in number 3 especially.
Why don`t you explain all this to her and ask if she is willing to do it. Don`t force! Respect childs wish and individuallity.
It`s not your legs you know.

DO NOT DO THIS! AS TIME GOES BY SHE PROBABLY WILL LOOSE THE HAIR AT LEAST GIVE HER ANOTHER FIVE YEARS AND THEN LOOK AT THE DIFFERENCE IN HER LEGS.
