Question Argos - Home Waxing Kit Thingy!

Hi girls,

Anyone bought the home waxing kit thingy from Argos? It's like the wax system they use in many beauty salons, that heats the wax and comes with cotton strips. I am thinking of buying it (getting it as a bday present) to use on my legs and arms. I would get my mum to do the waxing part though as I am not that flexible to be able to contort myself and do a good job haha!

Eva - http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Produc...er/4422354.htm there you go!

Alison - ha... I am not the only one who browses the Argos catalogue... it's so heavy though it's like a giant Bible.

I have had waxing done at beauty salons with good results... my arms mainly. It gets quite expensive after a while if you keep having it done, which obviously you probably would do if you are a hairy mary or just a fuzzball like myself. I wonder if it's as good as the salon stuff - assuming my mum can master the art of waxing, she's had a go at it on me before using normal wax strips and was very good at it for some reason. I also wonder if it's easy to get replacements of the consumables - wax, strips etc. HMMMMM!

Girls,

My sister came today for my belated bday celebrations - and she gave me this kit as my present. Have yet to use it as you have to watch a DVD and I haven't had a chance. I have grown my leg hair specially HAHAHA - not... I am so lazy.

Will let you know how I get on.

i get a salon wax done from time to time then use an epilator in between. it hurts to start with but i would deffo recommend it - it deffo gets better over time! stick to it, and within a couple of months im sure you would find it hardly hurts at all xx

Anyone tried the electrolysis pens?
