Default "NO NO" hair remover gadgit......

As seen on TV....I am wondering if anyone has tried this product and if so did you find good results. The commercial sure does look convincining. I have a hair from "H__ L" that I would like to put an end to it's life. LOL

Thanks for the info. I was interested in whether it worked or not too. I sure won't be buying one now.

I have a beautician friend who told me the only way to successfully and permanently remove hair is through electrolysis. I had asked her about laser hair removal. Hope this helps.

Thanks for this information. I did not think of checking the reviews. I guess I shall continue with the method that does work for removal although it must be done constantly and that is the tweezers. No lasting results but does not burm the skin and certainly does not hurt the wallet.

I am a firm believer if it sounds too good to be true it probably is.

I don't think electrolysis works for everyone. Tried a sample once and, aside from the fact that it hurt (!), the specific hairs that were treated were unaffected.

My daughter recently had laser hair removal done on her forearms and it worked very well (and was painless). However, she has dark hair. I was told laser hair removal usually does not work well on forearms because the hair is usually too light a color.

I bought it.... it DID NOT work (for me) and it was like pulling teeth trying to get my money back... I swore I would never EVER buy anything else from an infomercial. My advice... DON'T DO IT!

I just figured this one out - we don't have hair on our legs anymore because we don't use them as much as we used to.
We Do have hair on our chins because our mouths never stop moving - either eating or yakking. Ya think?
