5.0 out of 5 stars Long wait is finally over!!
This is a great product - one which I have been waiting for, since a long time. It is very convenient to use. There are some tips to keep in mind while using it.

1. Face should be thoroughly cleaned before using it.

2. Hold the skin taut while removing hair. This eases hair removal and also reduces pain.

3. The time to hold the tweezers varies. The product manual...

2.0 out of 5 stars It might work....if
It might work if you could grab the hair. The tweezer mechanism is very flimsy and quickly loses its "grabbing" power. You have to squeeze the tweezer device so tight that it will sooner or later cause the plastic to crack.

1.0 out of 5 stars Didn't Work for Me At All!, December 19, 2002

This review is from: Emjoi AP-9FEA1 Beauty Forever Hair Remover (Health and Beauty)
I was so excited to get this product because I hate shaving. However, I quickly found out that it wasn't nearly as effective as it claimed to be. I tried hair from all over my body (legs, underarms, eyebrows, etc.) to see if I could get it to remove one hair. Just ONE hair! Nothing doing. I found out later that electrolysis is best for fine, light colored hair. Well, I have plenty of those, but I don't really need those removed - I need the dark, coarse hair! I was really disappointed. On the positive side (if you have fine, light hair that needs to be removed) it is fairly easy to use, although it takes forever, and has clear instructions. The multi-hair remover coil doesn't work so you really have to try and remove one hair at a time. It isn't very painful, I mean you can feel a kind of weird sensation under your skin, but it doesn't hurt - it just doesn't work...

1.0 out of 5 stars The emperor has no clothes, July 3, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Emjoi AP-9FEA1 Beauty Forever Hair Remover (Health and Beauty)
I recently bought this product for my girlfriend at her request. I think the only reason they are able to continue selling this product is because no one has the patience to verify that it does not work. It comes with a poorly made tweezer device that you have to use to clamp down on a hair for 30 seconds before plucking it. Once the hair grows back you will need to do this again and again until it doesn't grow back. According to the instructions it should stop growing back after about four times. You have to be extremely dedicated to invest that much time.

I bought this and a few other products from Emjoi, and the quality of these products is non-exsistant. This one didnt even work. I tried it on myself and others and it never worked once. I read all the directions multiple times and even called Emjoi. It still didnt work. Don't waste your money.

1.0 out of 5 stars Plain and simple...IT DOESN'T WORK, June 15, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Emjoi AP-9FEA1 Beauty Forever Hair Remover (Health and Beauty)
I would have rated it zero if only the scale went that low. These tweezer-type hair removers do not work. Anyone who says they've tried it and it worked is deluding themselves. The hair will grow back. I was suckered into one several years ago before doing the research on it and I will never be duped again. Electrolysis works by inserting a needle into the hair shaft to deliver the (painful) shock which eventually destroys the follicle. The tweezers don't deliver enough energy to do anything. Please don't waste your money or hope on this useless product.

1.0 out of 5 stars Didn't work for me, April 17, 2003

This review is from: Emjoi AP-9FEA1 Beauty Forever Hair Remover (Health and Beauty)
First, its really boring and unmotivating to use this product as you have to switch off the radio/TV etc, before using it.
Second, its very tedious.
If it was effective, it would have probably been worth the effort, but the hair wouldn't come off after more than 20 seconds of holding.

Didn't work for me. I gave up after several tries.

1.0 out of 5 stars RF Technology Does NOT Work, April 9, 2006
By 
I have tried numerous products like this in the past, and after doing hours of research on the technology discovered it is largely unproven and that all this clinical proof they all claim does not exist. The only product that I am aware of that works is the one touch electrolysis pen. Give that a try, or make a professional appointment.

1.0 out of 5 stars BAD NEWS, September 2, 2007
This review is from: Emjoi AP-9FEA1 Beauty Forever Hair Remover (Health and Beauty)
This product doesn't work and hurt my fingers to clamp down on such a small hard wand for 30 seconds. I would NEVER recommend this product. Plus when I went to return the defective product, I had to pay shipping both ways :( :( :( NOT A HAPPY CUSTOMER

5.0 out of 5 stars Long wait is finally over!!, June 16, 2001

This is a great product - one which I have been waiting for, since a long time. It is very convenient to use. There are some tips to keep in mind while using it.

1. Face should be thoroughly cleaned before using it.

2. Hold the skin taut while removing hair. This eases hair removal and also reduces pain.

3. The time to hold the tweezers varies. The product manual recommends holding the hair between the tweezers for 15-20 secs. I found that the coarse hair needed to be held more than the thin hair. Thin hair did not even take 10 secs to come off. So, if you have thin hair you are in luck!!

This product is great for eyebrows, for, now I can shape them the way I want. It also works great for under the chin and upper lip hair. There is hardly any pain. You may feel a slight pinch and immediately the hair comes off.

Overall this product is well worth the money!
