Remington Smooth & Silky Total Coverage Epilator, Electric Tweezing System, Pink, EP7010E

Complete change of review. My first review was written when I really didn't understand how to use this. I was epilating my armpits very well after the first few months, but I just figured it out for my legs -- 10 months after purchase. But that's really only about 10 uses later, so that's how I'm justifying the delay. ;)I only the epilator about once a month for my legs. I kept breaking hairs as I epilated, because I wasn't correctly holding my skin taut enough as I epilated. I finally figured that out this last time, and my legs are finally perfectly smooth, no broken hairs (which caused the stubbly feel after epilation). I figured my problem was user error, but I was starting to look around at different epilators, to see if maybe I could more easily use a different style epilator. But now that I've got it figured out, I will not be wasting the money to replace this.First, I soaked in the tub for half an hour. So boring, but thank the Lord for books! I got out, dried off, and got to work on the bath mat. There is always a little initial pain when I start epilating, but I just grit my teeth through the first bit. Then, my body realizes I'm not being injured, and it's all okay. I hold the epilator at a 90° angle, pull the skin taut, and get to work. Since I can go two weeks to a month between sessions with this (depending on where I'm epilating), I will never go back to shaving and having to do my armpits daily and my legs every couple of days.Quick tip for post-epilation: I apply a little jojoba oil to soothe my skin afterwards.

From the get go this device did not hold a charge. It can only be used if it’s plugged into the wall but that wasn’t enough to deter me. The first time I used it, it worked fantastically minus the charging issue. The second time, the plastic guard broke. The third time, I barely got any hair off of my legs despite turning the device up and applying pressure when using it.

Although I have given very few reviews on Amazon, I feel so strongly about this epilator that I simply had to recommend this wonderful product. This is my first epilator. At age 60 something, I have been increasingly struggling to manage my old lady chin hairs. Who knew you start growing WHISKERS as you age?! This has been an ongoing and silently maddening problem for me for several years now. I have been tweezing daily.Finally fed up, I looked into permanent hair removal. My goodness, the expense!!! So I decided to try an epilator before going to such extreme measures. I read many reviews on Amazon and decided to try the Remington. They have been making shavers for decades, so I figured they know a bit about hair removal. I have only used the epilator twice, but after only my second use, my face has been hair free for 5 days! FIVE DAYS!!! It is so amazing, I keep rubbing my chin and mustache area to make sure I am not imagining things!I use the middle size guard thing, set it on low speed, and go slowly, pulling my skin taut like men do when shaving, repeating areas until I no longer feel any hairs being pulled. Having tweezed for years, the pain seemed minimal to me (I do have pretty sensitive skin), but at any rate, I was prepared for some discomfort. This hair problem has had me so unhappy, I was willing to put up with almost any amount of pain, if the hair could be kept at bay.This just solves so many problems for me, especially travel issues. I can pack this with me for trips lasting longer than a week. No more tweezers confiscated at the security check in! No more waking with whiskers! No more five o'clock shadow!I have course and fine hair on my face. I am hoping, as stated in many reviews, the hair growth continues to become less and less as I use the epilator more. I may try this on my underarms and legs at a later time. For me the simple joy of not having to tweeze my face daily, is quite simply a miracle. I plan to buy another one of these and tuck it away for future.If you hate the hairs on your chinny chin chin, PLEASE try this. With lovely Amazon you have 30 days to return it, so what can you lose besides disgusting, awful whiskers?!If my opinion changes, I will write an update, but for now, I am one happy woman!
