Product Description

Amazon.com

This electric device plucks hair from legs, face, underarms, and bikini lines to give you smooth skin for up to six weeks. It operates at two speeds to deal with different hair types and removes hairs as short as .5 mm, so it can even be effective just one day after shaving. To minimize pain, the device uses tweezerlike disc sets to gently stretch the skin before plucking hairs at the root, and the head curves to fit the body. An interchangeable shaver and long-hair trimmer attachment is included for touch-ups. To complete the kit, Emjoi includes a carry case and loofah sponge. --Fred Brack

Product Description

Top of the line dual opposed tweezer disc operation to remove unwanted hair more efficiently and faster.

Poor Ergonomics April 8, 2004
By DCH
I've used a few other "epilators" and I liked this one least for several reasons. I found the tweezing plates revolving in 2 directions, as opposed to one, rather uncomfortable. Also, the plastic pieces at ends (bordering the tweezers) were sharp and often scratched my skin. The biggest reason that I don't care for this product is it's size and shape. It's small and thick and difficult to hold comfortably, often grazing my fingers during use. While this wasn't painful it was certainly annoying. Of the products commonly found on the market, I prefer the emjoi "Gold Caress." It's easier to hold and use, and it's less expensive. (The Gold Caress, however, doesn't include a shaving head.)With this model you also have the choice of AC or rechargeable. Hope this helps.

No more shaving! July 20, 2004
I love this product! I was so sick of shaving that I decided to give this a try. I have a low pain tolorance and I have to say that it did hurt ALOT the first 2 times. (I admit I had a glass or two of wine before doing it the second time lol) but after that the hair is much finer and since it grows back at different speeds its not as concetraited in one area...which is why it hurts. I use this all the time now. My legs are soooo smooth. I usually do this once a week while watching tv. It actually lasts for 3/4 weeks or so however since hair grows back at different speeds and depending upon how much of the hair was taken out by the root or if it just broke off I like to use it weekly. It doesnt hurt at all now...although I read someone used this on their underarms. I tried it and will NEVER do that again...that was painful!!! the bikini line is less painful than that. This product works great and I'll never go back to shaving!!!

I've always considered myself someone with a high tolerance for pain...but after getting this thing, I may have to rethink that. First off--the thing works. You want to get rid of a huge amount of hair from the root, this little baby will work wonders! You want it to be painless...FAT CHANCE. When I first used it, I did not em-joy the amount of pain issued by this little bugger.

The first time you use thing thing, the only thing coming out of your mouth will probably be AAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGHHHHHHHHH! (and if you're creative like me, a whole lotta expletives as well!) You *will* have red, and possibly bumpy skin afterwards...and if you're really lucky, you may even have a few little pinpoints of blood where more stubborn hairs used to reside. But rest assured, all of those pesky side effect will go away--and yes, the pain does get less each time you use it afterwards. If you have a low tolerance for pain, can't pluck your brows without crying, or can't even pull a hair on your head, it probably would be best to stick to a razor or nair. I've had my Emjoi for over 2 years now, and I have graduated into bikini area and underarms Emjoi-ing...a good tip is to use the Emjoi, then take a good warm shower. I've found that Tea Tree Soap and a good lotion after the shower helps the pain subside greatly as well.

Help-a question, not a review
I have read many of the reviews but none specifically mention the chin. Can you use it on the chin/face? Is it effective on the coarse black hairs?

Painful but worth it!
I've had my epilator for about 2.5 weeks now, so not long, but I already love it. The first time I used it I did my armpits and it was absolutely beyond painful. Read more

Excellent transaction
I have used this same epilator for several years, and this purchase was because my other one was worn out. For me this product works, does what I need it to do.
