Is their such a thing that pulls hairs out from the roots that doesn't hurt I've had the reminton i-light for about 4 month but only used it once as it was like needles pricking my skin and I'm suck a woose so have plucked up the couarge to use it again I'm off on holiday soon and I'm determined to be hair free before then
Shavin doesn't work as my skins so light and my hairs are so dark

Honestly, I don't think there is anything - unfortunately. Waxing at a salon isn't too bad. Epilators are, IMO, agony.

Epilation creams should work but I'm very dark too and the hair/regrowth is visible within a couple of days.

Epilators do hurt, but, hey, not as much as childbirth Grin. You can also get ones with ice-packs, vibrating heads and other pain-reducing features - have a look around your local Boots.

I've found some areas hurt more than others. Most of the leg area is OK, apart from the side of the knee for some reason. And the bikini line - YOW! But at least it's a small area.

CointreauVersial you must be able to handle pain well lol I used to have an epilator with the ice pack it wasn't just a little pain it was wow very sore lol I go get my eye brows waxed at salon but that pain is over in seconds plus I don't need to do it to myself my problem is pluckin up the courage to use them because I no I'm going to feel pain :(
