Well the title of the thread says it all..are they worth the money? Do you have to let the hair grow long? How long do the results work for? Thanks girls.

I have the Emjoi Optima and I like it. The only drawback is that it takes a LOT of time. And doesn't work well on really fine hair (the face) or really sensitive places (underarms and bikini line). It works great on the legs and keeps them looking smooth for 2-3 weeks for me. If I would take the 1/2 hour to use it!

Perhaps it is your brand of epilator but I've had huge success with my underarms. I no longer have the underarm darkness that used to be there as the hairs are finer and are no longer visible underneath the skin.

The first time I did my underarms it hurt like hell and bled. Now its easy peasy and takes less than a minute to do once or twice a week.
My legs too forever the first couple of weeks but now if I keep on top of it, it just takes a few minutes once a week. I'm slowly working up the leg too, I'm up to above the knee now! lol

Its definately easier than shaving and the results are much more satisfying. I wasn't keen (or financially able) to fork out a lot of money for a new one so I bought a second hand one and its been great. Its a Braun Silk-Epil and its meant to be rechargable but no longer holds battery life so I have to keep it plugged in to use it - if I was to buy a new one I'd definately get a rechargable one, its a lot easier to use without having a cord getting tangled up around my leg!

februarystar--I use the Braun Silk-Epil too! I am on the second one and want to get the third soon(eventually I find it gets duller). I have been using it for a few years now. I have found the hair growth on my underarms and legs much less than it was before. I use it once at week at the most and even then there is not a lot of hair. I love that thing!
