I have tried, spending something like 800 bucks so far, on electrolysis and such getting my facial and other hair to go away. The results have been, hardly noticeable. So in February I broke down and took a risk. I got a home hair removal system.

iLIGHT® Pro PLUS Quartz Intense Pulsed Light Hair Removal System | Remington Products

Uhm, ladies (and gents who might want to get rid of a few places) this thing works.

Seriously.

I zap every thursday, been doing so regularly for 4 weeks now. My upper lip is nearly hair free, my chin is getting there as well. My chest from the diaphragm up is hair free. I haven't shaved under my arms in a month.

Does it hurt? On highest setting it's certainly not pleasant, but you don't have to use that level. I do it on the beard. Because I want it gone. It's working. I did a test run on my calf and now have a noticeable strip that's mostly hair free after one run. ONE.

So if you're tired of shaving your legs, this is something I would suggest investing in.
 
This thing would be great for my balls.

Yeah, TM, it feels like a rubber band being snapped against your skin. I wouldn't really recommend ball zapping. At least not sober.

hm, that is wonderful

I have heard of the No No...I think that's what it was called

Decades ago I started using an epilator on my legs. It rips the hair out by the roots which does eventually kill the roots but it takes years.

good luck on your soon to be silky smooth body

The NONO I didn't trust based on what I read, and while there is a Tria 4X that some think is a little better, I decided to go with the Remington.
 
so what's up with the nono?

If, like me, you watch too much late-night TV, you’ve probably given some idle thought to ordering the No No, a handheld hair-zapping device sold in direct-response ads. This product promises to painlessly remove and lighten your body hair. The ads leave out two key facts: the No No costs almost $300 and doesn’t work all that well.
At least that’s what our smooth and supple colleagues down the hall at Consumer Reports tell us. They bought a batch of the device and sent female employees home to zap one leg and shave the other for six weeks. Their verdict: If you enjoy stubble and the smell of burning hair, this product may be for you.
Treated areas of the testers’ bodies were never hair-free, and the word “prickly” came up a lot. The electrified hair-zapping wire wasn’t painful, but there was that burning hair smell.
Also, as we’ve discussed regarding products as varied as computers and lawn mowers, buying from certain vendors can

Will No No Remove My Hair for Good? | No No Hair Remover Reviewed

It doesn't actually work. Oh it might remove your hair for a while, but it's not the permanent solution.

for 400$ you would hope the thing works. but then again , that hasn't stopped some products in the past.

Maybe Taco would like a rubber band snapped against his balls... :lol:

I have used an epilator for many years and the hair is still pretty thick. I have been thinking about trying laser hair removal.

I doubt it hurts any more than nicking your scrotum with a razor.

well truth be told, I was never very hairy...except on my head, omg on my head hair...but if I was hairy I would for sure try the laser...nothing to lose...well, except for a few hundred dollars...meh, it's only money:mrgreen:
 
Is there a "reverse" mode to make hair grow where it stopped growing, like on top of my head?
