RemingtonSmooth & Silky Total Coverage Epilator, Electric Tweezing System, Pink, EP7010E

Great product. I am not experienced with epilation. I have researched it on the web but this is my first time using one. My advice is do read the instructions. I figured that it was self explanatory so the first time I used it a few days ago I just ran it across my leg like a razor. The instructions recommend using small circular motions. I would say that I have fairly thick hair that grows on my legs. When I initially did it with the same motion I use for a razor I did indeed notice that the hair was being cut off and not pulled from the root. This in turn left me with a wicked ingrown hair on one of my legs. I am a single mother of 2 with a hectic daily agenda so I did not have enough time to do more then the one leg that day. I later read the directions and when I found some time tackled my other leg. This time, with the more precise small circular motions, I noticed that I would say over 90 percent of the hairs came out with roots intact. As far as pain, as I said I have 2 kids and a few tattoos therefore the pain was not as bad as child birth but I can easily compare it getting a tattoo. It has a pinch feeling with a mild burning sensation afterwards. As most people using hair removal products know beauty comes at a price, small amount of pain to endure with the possibility of only having to use it once a month or so. So I would give this product 5 stars and recommend to a friend. Great product, great style.UPDATE: I have now been epilating for a few weeks. I am enjoying the end results very much. At this point all I can say is that my pain tolerance has gotten significantly higher or the skin that I epilate is getting tougher. I can say that I am no longer having any issues with ingrown hairs. Also that there are certain areas of the body that are going to hate having a epilator on it (arm pits and bikini line). On an additional note, I have read in previous posts about epilation where people say they are very hairy and once they epilate that they no longer have to do it except for once a month or so. This is something I find to be untrue. I would say when it came to shaving I had to do it everyday to keep any hairs from growing back, with epilation my legs still need to be epilated every 3 days, I have noticed that my arm pits and bikini line (where hair is obviously thicker) need less epilation (every 5-7 days) which to me is a win, being a fulltime mom, employee and part time student anything less frequent is better :) Hope this review helps with your purchase!

I bought this because I have used Remington for several years and my epilator stopped working. It did a great job and rarely grabbed my skin. This one grabbed my skin every few seconds and left these marks all over my legs. As far as I am concerned, it is dangerous to use and I will be returning it. To say the least, I was extremely disappointed! My opinion would be to buy another brand and I won’t be buying Remington again. ☹️

Complete change of review. My first review was written when I really didn't understand how to use this. I was epilating my armpits very well after the first few months, but I just figured it out for my legs -- 10 months after purchase. But that's really only about 10 uses later, so that's how I'm justifying the delay. ;)I only the epilator about once a month for my legs. I kept breaking hairs as I epilated, because I wasn't correctly holding my skin taut enough as I epilated. I finally figured that out this last time, and my legs are finally perfectly smooth, no broken hairs (which caused the stubbly feel after epilation). I figured my problem was user error, but I was starting to look around at different epilators, to see if maybe I could more easily use a different style epilator. But now that I've got it figured out, I will not be wasting the money to replace this.First, I soaked in the tub for half an hour. So boring, but thank the Lord for books! I got out, dried off, and got to work on the bath mat. There is always a little initial pain when I start epilating, but I just grit my teeth through the first bit. Then, my body realizes I'm not being injured, and it's all okay. I hold the epilator at a 90° angle, pull the skin taut, and get to work. Since I can go two weeks to a month between sessions with this (depending on where I'm epilating), I will never go back to shaving and having to do my armpits daily and my legs every couple of days.Quick tip for post-epilation: I apply a little jojoba oil to soothe my skin afterwards.
