Omg my lumea is amazing!

My DH bought me a lumea for Christmas after years of listening to me whinge about my body and facial hair. I wasn't entirely convinced it would work well for me as although I am dark haired I also have olive skin and permenant sun tan but OMG is is a bloody revelation. I've only used it 3 times and I have barely any hair on my face or arm pits and my legs, which have hair like a mans, are only patchy and growing back very slowly. I cannot tell you how much this little thing is going to change my life! I am so hairy!

Does anyone else on here have a lumea?

Well I want to know what I'm doing wrong then.
Also, I gave up doing my legs as it takes so long. Each pulse covers such a tiny area and takes ages to get the angle so it actually lasers.

Suffice to say, I'm not getting on with it, but I seem to be in the minority, strangely. You've all clearly got the patience of a saint and non-stubborn hair.
Sigh...

I want one but from what I've read it's not much good if you've got red/blond hair and very pale skin (which I have although the hair on my body is not that pale!). Would it be worth buying one or would I be wasting my time and money?
