Review (5/5): It lasts for almost 4 weeks before I have new hair growth re-appearing.
My mother -in-law bought me my first epilady in 1996. I used it until it died on me several years later.
I saw it being advertised on an American Airlines product magazine while flying one day. Checked with Amazon and found their price comparable to the supplier but of course I got free shipping with Amazon so I purchased it from them.
I do not use razors. I only use Epilady Tri Coil Epilator on my legs, arms, bikini area, and underarms. It lasts for almost 4 weeks before I have new hair growth re-appearing. I will never use any thing to remove body hair except this epilator.
At first use you can feel the hairs being pulled with the epilator and it almost stings and makes the skin itchy for a few minutes, but the body soon adjusts and becomes tolerable. It does pull a lot of the hair from the roots though some break at the skin. Bikini area hair has to be trimmed a little before using the epilator.
Sometimes I use it on my upper lip and chin but it still leaves the fine hair that has to be waxed to achieve a clean look. They do have a smaller epilator for upper lips and chin but I have not purchased it.
