Happy with my Emjoi
I decided to give up shaving legs and underarms after 45 years of shaving, because of several scars from a broken ankle. I simply could not shave without also shaving off parts of the scars. Painful and lots of bleeding!  So I read a lot on line about epilators before I took the plunge and bought my very first one, Emoji eRase -60. There are several brands rated favorably, but I chose this one because I wanted electric instead of battery for most consistent power. Emjoi is in the front runners for epilators, and this model of Emjoi was less expensive than the 72 tweezer model. I wasn't sure I would have enough moxie to use one, and didn't want to be out too much money for an experiment. I screwed up my courage, and started epilating legs first. The first time using it was bracing to be sure. But it is more of mind over matter than anything else. I now use it once or twice a week and have no problem with the twinges from the tweezing. I admit the mustache area hurts more, but so does tweezing there by hand. This is faster, so the pain is over quicker. I'll never go back to shaving. Ever. So far this product is working great. I hope it lasts a long time. I know it has plastic gears, as other reviewers have commented, but I bet they all do. I am very pleased with my purchase. I would buy it again.
