Painful learning curve
I used to buy "crystal skin polishing mitts (for hair removal)" years ago but they got expensive and then I couldn't find them any more.  I thought this would be a comparable, less expensive (in the long run) and less wasteful alternative.  This left me disappointed.<br /><br />The main body is like holding an old laptop mouse, everything is very rigid.  Even using a constant light pressure circular pattern, the hair removal was sporadic in the same area- there would still be long hairs in areas that the skin was already at irritation point.  Press too hard and your skin is red and itchy, too soft and it just twists the longer hairs until the knot up and pull off.  EVERYTIME my brain glitched and I went at a straight line, it sliced into the skin.  Also cut the skin in bony areas where the hard bone and hard surface of the buffer creates too much friction.<br /><br />There is not enough pliability to the buffer for me, forget nooks and crannies and bony parts, add in the areas that it doesn't remove the hair at all and the pain and irritation while learning the right amount of pressure, it's just not worth it.<br /><br />LSS, it only worked as expected on pudgy areas of my body that had enough skin movement and fat to counteract the stiff structure of the sanding block.
