I looked for a good hair removal system for a long time and I finally found it in emjoi. I have been using it for almost 2 years now. My only complaint is that it's hard to use on some parts of the face to get the right angle. That's nit picking really cause this is a great buy.

I truly love this product especially because it was a gift to my hairy self. I must admit that it is pretty painful at first, and so I almost gave up and thought of returning it when I thought: I'm not going to get rid of my hair any other best way that I can afford, so I stook with it. I am still mastering it but I am happy!
Emjoi, a great product!

Thanks for a great product! I have been using this product for about 16 months now and haven't shaved since!
I use it on my legs and armpits, and I find that the hair is coming back finer and fewer.
This item pulls the hair quick enough so that the pain from this is very slight.
Keep this product affordable and of the quality it is today.
I want to share this information with those who might be contemplating using this type of hair removal system, it works great~!
love it!

I love this little gadget! Not for wimps - it does hurt a little - but not any more than waxing. Plus, I get to do it in the privacy of my own home, and I can touch up strays whenever I want.
I use it on my underarms, my legs, my bikini line (although the contours of that area are a little tough to get around - I just use tweezers to get the strays), and I have even been venturing into the Brazilian area.
It's fabulous - I'd buy it all over again!
does the job!! my skin is soft again!

This product does just what it says it will do. However, I must say it's pretty painful! But hey, if you decide that epilating is the best option for you, you've got to accept that it's certainly not pain free!! This product is slightly difficult to clean but overall I'm very happy with it- it took a while to do my legs - but I never knew I had such soft skin! And don't worry - the redness does go away after a few hours - just like with waxing! Best of all this site delivers sooo quickly, I'm definitely a hooked customer!
Excellent Product

This is an excellent product. This is the second one I have purchased. I wax my legs at home and I use the Emjoi Hair Removal System afterwards to get any hairs that are leftover. I use it on my underarms, legs, and bikini area.
You have to hold your skin taught otherwise it may catch your skin and it will hurt. If anybody tells you that any hair removal product doesn’t hurt then they must have really really light/thin hair. I have really thick and course hair. My legs hurt after I wax them and after I use this product on them.
I have noticed that overtime when I used it on my underarms that I don’t hurt as bad after each use, and my hair takes longer to grow back because I am getting them at the root instead of shaving.
I hope that this helps anyone who has any questions about this product. I certainly recommend it and I would purchase this product again.
Can't Live Without this Product; LOVE IT!!!

Since I discovered this Epilator I have stopped shaving and never looked back. My legs, underarms, lip, and bikini area are all baby smooth, and the hair grows back so slowly I don't have to use it but once-a-week or less.
Also the hair comes back softer and never with a stubble feeling. And, it really seems like many of the hairs do not come back at all, as if the plucking of the hair damages the hair follicle and kills it or something.
If you are concerned about pain, let me tell you how to go about using this product. The first time will be the hardest as you will have all your hair needing to be plucked at the same time (later it comes in so sparse you hardly feel anything). Shave the hair and let it barely grow out, or cut your hair very short (such as in bikini area) very short. Using this product on long hair IS VERY PAINFUL! Use short brushing strokes like you are flicking dust off your leg.
After you use this product a couple of times you will not have much hair needing to be removed at the same time, (don't let it grow in full & thick before using epilator again however). Then it pain free, other than a prickling sensation which I enjoy since I know I'm getting rid of the hair, and when I can't feel the prickling sensation I know it's all gone.
I've used this product for about 3 years and my ONLY COMPLAINT is that I've had to replace it about once-a-year. The unit will slow down some in speed, but the greatest problem is that the power cord wires break inside and it will not charge again. If we could buy a new power charger instead of a whole new set, it would be much more cost effective.
Enjoy your baby soft hairless skin.
wonderful for underarm area, mediocre on others

I purchased this product thinking it would be "the answer to all of my hair removal prayers." It didn't answer them all, but it did work on my underarms so well that I recommend purchasing it simply for that reason. This product can be hard to clean (I simply turn on the unit and let the hairs fall out of the electric tweezers into the sink or trash can). Overall a great buy. TIP #1 By removing the blue plastic covering from the unit, the electric tweezers can grab hair from a larger area at one time, and at different angles and decreases overall epilating time.
UNDERARMS: 5 STARS. It is not painful (it pinches a little) and the hair grows back thinner.
LEGS: 3 STARS. The Gold Caress removed the hairs after several strokes on the same area but it gave me bumps on my legs, even though I exfoliated as instructed. This was surprisingly more painful than the underarm area. Although pain thresholds will differ from person to person, it was not awful enough to make me not want to use the unit. It is extremeley tolerable, although the bumps and the ingrowns made me refrain from using this on my legs.
FACE: 3 1/2 STARS. Gold Caress is too large to use on upper lip, although it is great at random chin hair. I have a friend that uses it on her cheek area.
A good product that does what it should

This is the second epilator I have owned. The first one was a Remington, and it lasted years. I hope the life of this one is just as long.
This Emjoi model works very well. It's a little noisy, but it leaves your skin very smooth. It's a little bulkier than my Remington model so it can be a little difficult to maneuver it into those nooks and crannies, but it seems to do a better job and gets even really short hairs plucked and leaves my skin smoother than the Remington did.
For those who have never epilated before, yes, it's painful (I don't think those massaging things on the side do much to alleviate the pain, it just adds to the bulk of the product), but if you keep doing it, the level of pain gets substantially reduced. I did my underarms for the first time - yikes. One side actually felt a little bruised for a couple of days, but the results are great and I know that the next time I work on that area, it will be better. Just grin and bear it! It only took a couple of minutes to do both underarms and the results are definitely worth it.
One piece of advice - the instructions say to use short strokes in the direction of hair growth. If that works for you, great, but it doesn't for me. What works better for me is to use a circular motion and work my way gradually into the area I want to remove the hair from.
I would recommend this product.
great

I got this product to remove the peach fuzz on my face, 'cause it seems I am extra fuzzy. Waxing and depilatories did not work. This product worked immediately and effectively, but was slightly painful. Good purchase, nice product.
Purchase for Curves

This epilator is particularly good for the more curvy areas that you may want to epil. The discs in the head are set in a u-shaped curve that is excellent for removing hair on curves such as the inner-thigh, knee or face. For flatter areas such as the abdomen, shin or top of the thigh you will need to go over the areas more to get the same effect. One of the features of this product that I like least is that the head does not separate from the body. This makes cleaning/sterilizing the discs a bit more of a challenge. Overall, I would buy this product again because it works better than anything I’ve tried on the areas I epil the most and I am very satisfied with the machine’s performance. I have also owned the Emjoi Classic, Silken and Optima models as well as the Braun Silk-Epil EverSoft model. As a side note, the Optima is the best for flat areas, especially legs.
a MUST have!!!

I have very thick dark hair and until I tried this epilator I never felt confident in tank tops/halter tops. I use it EVERYWHERE! A few red bumps clear up overnight. I've used it for about 2 years & do notice my hair thinning a little, but the convenience of not having to shave every day or so is GREAT!
It also removes the fine "peach fuzz" on my face and arms. Don't use it like a razor, I rub up & down in small stokes almost like a bar of soap motion.
Enjoy!
Forget waxing!

This Epilator works even better than I imagined. I have medium to fine body hair, and this machine removes it without nearly as much pain as I'd feared. The first bout of hair removal is a killer, but it doesn't hurt nearly as much after that. The only drawback for me is that as the hair grows back (about 2-3 weeks after hair removal) I get little red bumps on my legs. The bumps and red spots last about a week. I'm using the loofa (comes with the epilator), daily, and a product called "Tend Skin" - that helps the hairs come through quicker.
very satisfied

The Emjoi Gently Gold Caress is SO wonderful for bikini area, legs, arms, ect. It was really unbearable the first time I used it but since then it's not been so bad. But when I used it on my face I had a disaster! I have alot of blonde facial hair on my cheeks. It left ALOT of lil red pimple like bumps! I've had similar experiences with waxing but not nearly as bad. Just a warning if you use it on your face try it on a small area near your jawline to see how your skin reacts! The product is really great, just test your sensitivity to it first!

Emjoi Gold: Side-by-side comparison with Norelco Satinelle. Very similar characteristics, Emjoi a bit louder, with less difference between slow and fast speeds than the Satinelle. Otherwise, a satisfactory product, so far performing as advertised.
A great epilator

I've used other epilators before and the others just didn't perform as well the gold caress. The gold caress is faster and leaves my skin very smooth. I would recommend the gold caress to others and I think your product is the best one available.
