My mom purchased a coiled spring epilady contraption when I was pretty young and we all tried it, and then it was promptly stored under the sink, never to be seen again. It was SO painful and absolutely AWFUL. The pain was unbearable and you were still covered in hair!Now, about 15 years later I stumbled across the new and improved epilator of today. I didn’t see how ripping ones hair out could be any less painful than it was 15 years ago but I’m at a point now later in life where I have 4 children and I simply do NOT have the time to constantly be shaving my legs. The appeal to have smooth hair free legs was too much to pass on, especially for $17! However, I was still terrified and traumatized by that archaic epilady from 15 years ago. I kept telling myself, if I could endure natural unmedicated child birth 3 TIMES, I could certainly manage this. Right???
Yes. This epilator is SO awesome and the pain is very minimal. It is NOTHING compared to the old spring style types. My legs and underarms are hair free and still have no stubble. I can’t vouch for how long as I’ve only had it a few days. The pain is not bad at all, I would definitely compare it to getting a tattoo. It stings at first and then it numbs somewhat and is very manageable. I did not shave prior to epilating but I think that would definitely make it more manageable for users with a lower pain threshold.
As far as the epilator it does a great job of removing hair. I found that the shaver had a tendency to catch and pull hairs resulting in more pain than the epilator would have caused since it didn’t pull the hair out, but rather snagged it and wouldn’t let go, forcing me to yank it out. The concept of having the shaver on one end and epilator on the other is very cool.
My two main complaints about this product is the length of the cord (maybe 4 feet), and the melty sticky dark pink sections. It feels pretty gross to the touch and I’m sure will catch all kinds of nastiness! I intend to put packing tape over these sections to cover them and try to keep them from getting too yucky. I don’t see why they wouldn’t use a better coating on these parts??? When it does get too gross I intend to purchase the Braun 5270 Silk-épil X’elle Body System Epilator instead of this one. I was really leaning towards that one but fear of the pain lead me to purchase this one due to the sizable price difference between the two products. This one definitely gets the job done but they could do a better job on the quality and workmanship of their product.

I was excited to try an epilator out, so I chose to get this Revlon one since it was an inexpensive risk I could take. The epilator did not disappoint- it works really well to remove hairs, you just need to go over sections a few times because it doesn’t catch them all (which I’m sure you would have to do with any epilator). It’s loud, someone in the next room will hear you using it and it hurts but it’s worth the results. I’ve had the epilator for about three weeks, and I have no negative comments to make about the epilator/shaver parts themselves. However, the rubber on the sides, which I thought were great at first because it helps you hold a nice grip has started to melt. At first I didn’t know what was going on- I thought that dust was just attracted to the rubber. I tried cleaning the rubber off, scraping it and using a damp cloth. Then I realized that the rubber was actually melting, and that was why it had become such a sticky surface. I guess I’ll just have to purchase a new epilator when the rubber fully melts/gets too gross, but it works for now. -

This little epilator is great — it really didn’t hurt much at all, it isn’t too loud, and as a very hairy spanish girl I can tell you — it really works! I wish I had tried one sooner in life, by now I’d probably only be doing it every month or two. As it is, the results last two weeks. The shaver end also gets a very close shave, perfect for underarms or bikini areas that the epilator may miss.Love it, love it, love it. For the money, the shaver alone is worth it.
I have since used my SIL’s more expensive emjoie which has a lot more tweezers on it, but frankly I found the noise overwhelming, and the epilator itself scary. It hurt way more, and I was constantly scared it wasy going to cut me. It didn’t feel safe the way this one does. I’ve even tried it on my underarms!

This was my first experience with an epilator, and after several decades of shaving in the morning and having picky legs at night I have to admit I’m in crazy love with this thing! Does it hurt? YES! Another reviewer compared it aptly to having a tattoo. The first time I started to use the epilator on my legs (with about 3 days of growth, as I wanted to be sure there was enough hair there for the machine to grab), the first minute or so had me convinced I could never endure finishing my entire leg. I was reminded of the tattoo comparison…I’ve had several tattoos, and felt much the same way during the first few minutes. But then my body’s natural pain killers kicked in and I managed to get through the rest without too much wincing.Why put yourself through all that? Well, now that I have endured that initial epilation, I find it easy and almost painless to keep it up. I give my legs a quick once-over every few days to nab the few hairs that I might have missed or those that have grown in. The rest of the time, my legs feel incredibly smooth and touchable, far more than they ever felt even right after shaving. Better still, it lasts and lasts!
This definitely isn’t for everyone. If you have a low tolerance for pain, you’ll probably have a real hard time enduring that first encounter. But if you’re able to buck up a bit and get through it, you’ll like the results.
This is a good little machine, and I really like that it is both a shaver and epilator (I haven’t the courage to epilate my armpits…well, not yet anyway!). The instructions could have been better, but the device is pretty straight-forward. I would recommend it, but not for the faint of heart!
May 2010 Update: My little machine is still going strong…it still works effectively and reliably. And I finally mustered the courage to epilate both my armpits and my bikini line. Painful? Oh, yes! Doing my armpits was by far the most uncomfortable. But, just as I discovered after doing my legs, the results make it all worthwhile. The process leaves my skin incredibly smooth. Best of all, there’s no danger of painful nicks, razor burn or skin bumps with epilation. I picked up an after-epilation lotion (a product made by Emjoi, and also sold here at Amazon) that soothes my skin after epilating and discourages hair regrowth.
So, I’m still in love with my little machine and definitely recommend giving epilation a try!

Im very happy with my new toy!!!
I did it after shower and a exfoliating with Olay, and it worked just fine. It did hurted, but after 2 minutes I did no feel much pain at all!
Tip: Keep a wet warm towel close to you and rub it into you skin once every 5 minutes, it helped me not to feel much pain.
