4.0 out of 5 stars Great product but difficult to use, March 1, 2004

By A Customer

I have been using this product to treat the hairs on the facial area, like on my beard and eyebrows. The product really seems to work, you can actually feel the hair follicle disolve inside your skin. I have tried other products in the past from SharperImage and Verseo and none of them worked. Unfortunately, however, treatment with the Vector is very painful and messy. You have to apply special conductive gel or otherwise the treatment will not work. Also, I wish the wires were longer so it would be more comfortable to do the procedure.

Overall, this is a great product (probably the only one that works) but it could definitely use several improvements in some areas.

4.0 out of 5 stars Works, October 24, 2004

I purchased this sytem about 2 years ago and I have used it on various parts of my body and I have to say that it definitely works. The hair that was treated did not grow back and in fact hair does not grow back after just one treatment, even though the company recommends 2 - 3 treatments.

Although, I have to say that the Vector System is really not practical for large areas. For example it would take forever to remove all the hair on the legs since hair is being removed one hair at a time. The Vector is perfect if it is being used on facial areas or areas where only a patch of hair needs to removed. On these areas the hair can be removed quickly and you never have to deal with the hassle of tweezing anymore.

So for this reason I am going to give this product 4 stars since I can say I got my money's worth.

Also, the company offers terrific customer service with very fast reply to emails.

3.0 out of 5 stars Requires some time committment, December 29, 2006

Southern Chick (SE, USA) - See all my reviews

I purchased this product about six months ago to remove about 20 -30 dark, coarse hairs from my chin. At the time I was thinking about going to go to a professional electrolyst (sp?), but figured that it'd be cheaper and more convenient to remove these hairs on my own with this product. The product documentation says that permanent hair removal will take 3 to 4 months.

For the last six months, I've been dutifully using this product weekly for about 20 minutes. Most of the hairs have gotten a lot finer, but they are still growing back. Now that they're finer, they're actually harder to "zap." Here's why: According to the directions, you grip the hair and pull slightly before you turn on the electric current. When the hairs are really fine, I end up pulling them out before I can turn on the current.

My advice to anyone who's considering shelling out the money for this product is to ask yourself if you can commit to using this product weekly for 6 to 12 months on a relatively small area.
