    Let me start off by saying, I love this thing. I've tried sooo many hair removal things before but this is exceptional. Waxing however, really is the better or best way to remove hair but this is a follower. This is a more affordable alternative option. I know, it is super pricey etcc but it's worth it and you dont have to rep-buy it like every month.
    Overall not at all in comparison to a razor, nope, not even cuz of the cost.

    Efficient, gentle to skin and long-lasting. The massage roller head is really useful. There's a shaver head in the package as well I tried it, but maybe a normal shaver is better. I use it for my legs and it really worth the price!

    I've used this product for over a year now. I wish I never shaved because shaving caused my hair to become thicker. If I started with an epilator, my hair would probably be just as fine.

    I use this on my legs and underarm. It hurt the first time I used it but it's tolerable after several uses. Sometimes I use it after a month and it gets painful because the length of the hair has grown much more than anticipated.

    Overall, it does its job and leaves some redness for about a day.

    This epilator works well. It gets the hairs off pretty well. Some of the smaller finer hairs are harder to get though. I have used other brands of epilators in the past and this one seems to be more painful. Braun does make more expensive models than this one though, so maybe those are less painful.

    This thing hurts like hell at first, but it pulls out the hair well. When I used it on my bikini area, it kept it hair free for about 5 days, which was nice. Way more cost effective than waxing, but hurts more. If you have a high pain threshold you'll be fine, but I wouldn't recommend it for the squemish.

    I like this device. I use it on average every two weeks as my main hair removal. It's much better than the old versions, and very effective. I cannot wax, I find it excruciatingly painful, and shaving is not the most effective option for me, so this device comes in handy. In the beginning I too, found it painful and it took forever to do my full legs, but with time, I started using it on a reguar basis, and I don't seem to get as much hair growth and the pain is not a problem anymore. Maybe I just got used to it. On the other hand, it doesn,t remove everything, as any other depiltory device, it dosent catch all the tiny hairs, I do get ingrown hairs, although much less than before, it takes longer and I cannot use it in the bikini line area... it actually ripped my skin of, and I get a lot of really bad ingrown hairs.
    Overall, I would def. recommend it! It's my main hair removal technique, very effective a much better alternative to shaving and if you can't wax for whetever reason.

    I have been a regular waxer for years and I used to epilate, but found that most did not work well or would pinch my skin. This epilator is the cream of the crop! It met all of my expectations and more! Packaging is nice, but whatever, let's get to the good stuff. It is well-designed, comfortable bean shape that fits nicely in the palm of your hand. It allows for good grip and control, especially with the components on the inside rumbling around.

    Having tried every kind of hair removal out there, I was excited when I received this item as one of Ali's Top Ten contest items, so that I could try. At first it looked like a torture device (I don't understand why my boyfriend wouldn't let me practice on him?!), but once I got it started there was hardly any pain. I would say that it hurts less than waxing, and takes about the same amount of time. So far I have only used the lower speed, but I can't think that the faster speed would hurt that much more.
    It does leave little red dots from where the hair was removed (but much less than waxing), but they usually disappear by the next morning.
    I have found that it doesn't get every hair with one pass, but then it could be my inexperience with epilators.
    I like that it also comes with a shaving attachment, which worked well for my bikini area. I don't think I would want to try using the epilator there or anywhere on my face. I am still waiting to try it on my underarms.
    Overall I would say this is a great product and really effective. When you take the cap off you can see all the hairs it pulled out. I never realized I was so hairy!

    I have used this on and off for about 8 years now or maybe more now that I think back to when my cousin excitedly introduced me to this... It is quick and effective without any messy spillage (like from wax, tho' I LOVE waxing too)... I usually wax or shave if I have been lazy and not done it in a while and then use this a week or two later for "maintenance"... Luckily, for my skin this does not cause any bleeding... So be careful with that...
