Emjoi Light Caress Corded Epilator

I have but there are tender areas on a mans back that it hurts like the lower back near the waistline. But if you try doing this take an hot shower and let the water run in the areas you want to try this dry off and do it right away after words it seems to help a little more with the pain.

Yes you can. You just need to buy a voltage converter to comply with the voltage in India. The converter comes with the right plug.

I found that a product like Olay Facial clenser works well to stop the ingrown hairs. Actually, Lava hand soap and a washcloth does a better job of cleaning off dead skin and leaving it smooth. Don't over do it and scrub off all your skin. Go lightly with face and body lotions afterwards.

YES!!! This is going to sound crazy, but my wax specialist told me to use a pummice stone -- yes, the same one you might use to scrape off the dead skin on your foot. You obviously don't use nearly the same amount of pressure on your softer skin parts. Do it in the shower: apply lathered soap (from your washcloth or sponge) then gently drag the pummice stone across the problem areas. Do this during every hot shower you take. The stone basically exfoliates your skin, not allowing it to grow over the hair folicle which is how ingrown hairs form. I'm telling you -- it works. If you do it during every show, you'll see the difference in no more than 2 weeks. And the few ingrowns you may still have, will just pop out as you gently squeeze then with your fingernails. I thought my wax person was crazy -- telling me to drag a stone across my bikini area, but if I had it -- i'd give that woman a million dollars for the advice that makes my skin look 100 times healthier. No more dark spots from messing with ingrowns -- nothing. I use the stone on my bikini area and my lower stomach, as well as my inner thigh and my lower legs -- where my hair grows most.l Don't ever stop using the pummice stone. When you do, you'll see how the ingrowns come back!

Hi, For ingrown hairs or to prevent ingrown hair, I would suggest exfoliating with a salt scrub and moisturizing your skin a lot. I Don't like the idea of a pumice stone to exfoliate as it it can collect skin cells and surface dirt form your skin and is now trapped in the stone since it has little holes. You are risking getting infections. Fungus likes to grow in dark,warm,and moist places and a pumice stone fits that. You can even just go to the dollar store get a bag of sugar and use that it is cheaper as well. Ideally a good sea salt body scrub would be best. That is what I use and it is great because it has oils in it as well so you get the moisturizing at the same time. Good Luck.

I've had mine for over 2 years and it's still going strong. I've never had any problems with it yet. I love it. I have the Gently Gold Caress and use it on my bikini line. It's great and totally worth the money.

I have had mine for about 10 years, and it is still working. Right now I am thinking about getting a new one, but sort of feeling guilty because the old one sill works fine.

Honestly, mine lasted for approximately two years before the tweezers stopped rotating. However, with the cost of having your legs waxed professionally, it paid for itself in only one two uses. I'm getting ready to purchase my second one.

The results are basically the same; the hair takes longer to grow back and when it does it is noticeably finer. I went to get my underarms waxed, but the hair wasn't long enough, so I decided to try my epilator. I used it under both arms and a few hours later (3-5) I noticed the waxed underarm was still stinging while the other was not (since it pulls the hair not the skin.) In response to your second question, yes, you do move it pretty much like a stick of deoderant. Oh!! One more thing: Unlike waxing, your hair does not need to be very long to remove. I was told not to shave for a week at least, but I can use my epilator as often as I need to regardless of the hair length.
