I'm so temped by this but it's SUCH a lot of money, I'm quite hairy, stubbly legs by next day after I've shaved, pluck chin hairs every other day, under arms need shaving daily.

But I've got some questions, I have very course hair, always bleed when getting a wax for example and waxing is very painful.

Will it work? Will it be excruciating? Does it last? Is it worth the money?

Thank you

I got one of these ages ago but never really used it. I noticed Rosie on Love Island was using one though so might get mine out again!

It doesn't hurt to use - you can sometimes feel a little 'zing' but it's not painful and definitely not excruciating. Have you had a look at reviews on You Tube? I always find those quite useful.

It does work but you need to be persistent. I recommend focusing on two small areas for the first two months and do them every week. You’ll see results and will be more encouraged to keep going. Legs, leave u til the winter. My chin(and neck!!) hairs are much much better and bikini line is definitely improving.

Also with you face if you don’t want to shave, then just trim the hairs done with nail scissors as close as you can. It works just as well.

As pp said have a look at reviews.
It has worked for me, and I have found it easy to use, just don’t look at the light as it flashes, and it will only light when placed correctly on he skin. I have used it on underarms, legs and face, it does work, but takes time nd regular use, please remember to charge it frequently as posters here have recommended.
