Review (5/5): First time I have used one and I love it
I have been looking for an alternative to shaving. I decided to try an epilator for the first time and was a little scared of the pain. The first time I used it on my legs, the pain wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. There was pain, but I loved the way that I didn't have to do anything for days! I have only used this dry, so I don't know if I will get better results when I try it wet. I can see fine blonde hairs especially on my knees, but you cannot feel them. When it was time to do this again, it did grab the shortest hairs and did not hurt nearly as much. So I decided to use this on my bikini line....PAINFUL!! I suffered thru it and do feel it was worth the pain. However, you can only go down so far as it starts grabbing your skin especially in areas where you cannot pull the skin taut (which by the way makes it so much less painful). I have only done this dry also. When I first did this, I was worried as it left these red bumps where the hair had been pulled out, however, the instructions say wait until overnight and they were right. After a full day had passed, it cleared up. The more you use it, the less it hurts. The results are so worth it. I also love the brush attachment. I used it on my face and all over my body. I think it is really helping to prepare my skin for the exfoliation. I love this product.
