Default Conair Hair Removal System

I just wanted you ladies out there to be aware that there is a product that does not cause ingrown hairs (at least not for me). It is called the Conair Hair Removal System. You can see how it looks like by clicking on the link below:

http://www.walmart.com/catalog/produ...uct_id=3999275

I use this instead of a razor on my legs. I still shave with a razor on my face, though. Maybe we should petition to have them make a smaller version of this product.

Anyways, I hope that this helps some of you ladies out there.

I have a babyliss one of those, and if you over do it even slightly it hurts like a beast.
In fact, sometimes I end up with friction burn from it before it's even got rid of half of the hair. I gave up on it.

Hmm. . . that's interesting. It doesn't hurt at all when I use it. It works by sanding down your hair.

I tried this a couple of years ago on my legs, and ended up with really awful burns. I took it back and got an epilator instead! Not worth the pain, in my opinion, but then I do have sensitive skin, so it might be better for others who aren't so sensitive

I don't have sensetive skin but still got the burns. Oh well. Tried, failed, learned a lesson.
Who'd have thunk epilators would be less painful? But they are.
