Default NO NO Hair Removal System?

Has anyone ever tried this? Does it work? Does it hurt? It's pricey approx. $200. I see some pretty bad reviews online. They say the customer service is really bad. There was a trial period and people had a hard time returning it after they tried it. But maybe they improved it and their customer service.
I'm tired of wasting my money on these much hyped informercials on TV

Default I haven't used it

but have also read the bad reviews. And I have read the good ones which I wonder if they are from real people without an agenda.

I have had my fair share of bad luck with hair removal systems so I tend to steer clear of them lol.I have used systems where you use the sandpaper like exfoliator and if I didn't rub enough or hard enough, the hair didn't come off, and if I did then I had road rash. But since this has a heat source that essentially "crystalizes" the hair and then delivers heat into the follicle, maybe it really will work.

I looked on YouTube and found a review which I thought seemed real.

But there are a lot of others which are very promotional.

I really wish I had a better post for you but this video is pretty informative. She mentions that since the hair grows in cycles you will see hair grow back within a week or so, so you have to stay consistent with the treatments to affect each follicle while they are active, just like with laser.

If you get it, let us know I already wasted my money with the Wellbox so I am not going to purchase any large ticket items like this any time soon.

Default My experience with hair removal systems

...is that waxing works best short term and electrolysis is the best for removing it long term. Expensive and painful, however, but laser hair removal didn't do a thing for me except make my wallet lighter along with being painful!

Default I decided NO, against the NO! NO! system

Too many dissatisfied customers saying that its not worth the money, or the cost to replace the blades . Also that it takes too long. Instead I put my money into trying an airbrush foundation system. Wrote a post about it here "Skincare & Beauty"

I bought, I faithfully tried....I admit to wasting my money. Saw a very positive review on a morning news show.....but didn't see any difference at all.
