EpiladyLegend 4 | Cordless Epilators Hair Removal for Women, 2 Speed Bikini Trimmer, Electric Shaver for Women, Rechargeable Body Hair Remover

This baby takes some getting used to, and definitely requires trial and error as well as patience! The first time I used this, it left a red rash all over my legs that took a day or two to go away. I realized after that I had tried to epilate lag hair that was not quite long enough, which ended up in me just rubbing and rubbing my skin with the epilator which caused irritation. The second time was much more of a success, and I only did one leg on one day, and the other leg the next day. I let my hair grow out a lot more the second time, and the epilator took the hairs right out! There was and still will be a little redness/red bumps each time I epilate, but since I learned how to use the epilator correctly, the redness goes away in the same day.A few TIPS to newbies: When you first open your epilator, read the instructions FIRST before anything. This is my first epilator and I'm so glad I took the time to read the instructions and other reviews on here. This epilator requires at least 12 hours of non-stop charging before the first use. 12 HOURS. Yes, you read that right. Just like a new phone, it needs to be charged fully before using and to increase the battery life. (Also, the light on the front stays red when plugged in, even when fully charged for 12 hours. It doesn't ever turn a different color than red unless it's turned off/unplugged.) So set a timer or keep track on your own and don't rely on the light to alert you. After your first or second use, or whenever you start to feel the epilator lose power or sound like it's becoming more quiet/dying, just plug it back in. Other charge times won't take 12 hours and you can use the epilator while plugged in as well.HOW TO USE: Another tip is to hold the epilator so the letters are upside down (obviously lol), with the more open end of the V shaped blades facing the opposite way your hairs grow. (So for legs, basically starting at ankles and working upwards in circular motions.) Circular motions seem to work best and may have to be slower or faster circles on different areas of the body. Sometimes you'll have to go over a spot more than once to get stubborn hairs. This is a very lengthy process, and can take up to an hour or more for both legs depending on your comfort levels. You may have redness for a couple hours afterwards as well, so DO NOT epilate your body right before...or even the same day as a hot date! :P Give yourself time and space.PAIN: I try to always use the epilator after a hot shower on dry skin, so my hairs and skin are more flexible, which decreases pain. Speaking of pain...this is not for sissies! It helps to try to hold skin tightly or pull skin in opposite direction/stretch skin of epilator. I would rate this at about a 6 or 7/10 pain level for legs, and about a 9/10 for armpit...I have not been brave enough to try on my bikini area. The more you use an epilator, the more used to it you become and the less painful it feels. I'm also aware that a week or so before a woman's period, her skin is a lot more sensitive, which can be even more painful. So be considerate of yourself and your schedule! A good test for pain before buying an epilator is to take a tweezers and try plucking a leg or armpit hair, or any hair that that you plan on epilating. This is similar to the feeling of using an epilator, because it literally plucks your hairs out. (Which is why it works so well!)RESULTS: I have gotten pretty great results from my epilator and I only have to use it about once a month on my legs (and my hair grows FAST...let me tell you!) There have been little stray hairs that I just have to shave off later that day, but the epilator gets about 98% of hairs for me at least. My skin is so smooth! After the redness and red bumps fade that is. It's also great to apply a non-irritating body moisturizer to areas after epilating.

Yep - there's a small amount of discomfort but that is to be expected. This product does what it says it will do - highly recommend. The one thing to remember is to pay attention to the direction that the head is rotating. Going the opposite way (against the rotation) gives you the best results. Recommend.

Delivered on time. If you follow the directions, this works pretty good. Not perfect, but can’t ask for better considering the price

This is my 2nd time purchasing an Epilady product (full body epilator). My first one was similar, red & white, same style rotating head. It was a little smaller, and was not rechargable, you could only use it with the cord attached, which I did not mind. But I’ve had it awhile (maybe 3 years?) and it was starting to sound funny, like it was close to petering out soon and I did not want to be without my Epilady!! I really depend on it. So I ordered this one during Amazon’s Prime Deal Days and got a little bit of a discount, which was nice. This model is really similar to my first model, but it’s slightly longer in length and can be used with the cord, or without, once it’s fully charged. That will probably come in handy. I had read other reviews that said this model worked even better than the one I had because it had adjustable speeds and removed even the tiniest bit of hair regrowth. Meaning you do not have to wait until you LOOK like you need to shave before you can epilate your stubble. I was curious to see if that was true, so I used my old Epilady yesterday and sure enough, I could still feel a little stubble afterward. I got my new Epilady gen 2 today and went back over everything again with the new device and it was true! It pulled out even the tiniest little bits of stubble left behind by my 1st gen. device that I had just used the day before. Now I feel completely silky smooth - legs, arms, underarms, you name it, it worked great! And it will stay that way for about a month. No pinching of the skin, either. This is an amazing product and works like it claims. I’m extremely pleased with it and told my sister about it as well. If you are not sure, just take the plunge and go ahead and get it. It really works!
