Alright, for all of those that did home electrolysis. What were techniques you used in order to make it sucessful, 1. How many hairs a day did you do?? please estimate.2. How many minutes between one hair folicle to another hair folicle session?3. Is your skin dry or moist during the session?4. What setting removed the hair?I googled this darn thing but all I seem to get is nothing but consquenses to Electrolysis and maybe some tips, I wish there was a step by step visual manual somewhere. Reason I am asking is because I bought one and want to know everything I should know about it before I use it. Question posted by Tina Fri Dec 16 2005 Submit your answer what about infection

How long or how many times does it take to permanently remove hair? Question posted by Cassie hodges Sat Jul 23 2005 Submit your answer I need help!
I just got this today and tried it out. I followed all of the directions carefully. I started on setting 1, didnt work. Went to setting 2, 3, all the way up to 10. Sometimes I would feel the tingling, so I counted to 15 slowly, then waited another 5 seconds just in case. Not one of about 15 hairs I tried worked. I tried it on 10 and I didnt feel any pain at all. I was thinking maybe Its just broken but I DID feel a tingling sometimes. I have no idea what to do.

Directions:
Please read enclosed instructions carefully before using your Home Electrolysis.
Preparation for use:
* Cleanse skin and stylet tip with alcohol before each session and allow to dry.
* Perform a "sample test" for sensitivity of at least 5 hairs. Wait 24 hours before beginning treatment.
* Do not treat an area larger than 1 square inch (25 x 25 mm) at any one time.
* Moisten fingers with a salt solution (half a teaspoon of salt in 1 cup of water) and hold the touchband with moistened fingers. Moisture is vital to conduct the gentle current necessary to remove hair. Finger must remain moist throughout use, however, do not allow water to drip onto stylet tip, as this will cause it to operate prematurely.
* A magnifying mirror is helpful and good light is essential.
To use your home electrolysis:
* Set Comfort Control Dial to position 1. Push the slide button forward to expose the stylet tip. Hold the stylet like a pen with fingers around touchband.
* Do not squeeze skin adjacent to the hair being removed. Excessive pressure will cause skin damage.
* Note angle of hair growth, insert the stylet tip along the underside of the hair and into the follicle. Use only downward pressure as sideways pressure will blend the tip.
* Hold the stylet tip firmly in place. When proper contact has been made, you will feel a tingling sensation. If you do not feel a slight tingle, gradually increase the setting of the Comfort Control Dial until a tingling sensation is felt. This indicates that the current is flowing. In addition, try gently rotating the stylet tip in the follicle a few times to make sure you are contacting the hair root.
* When you feel the slight tingling, hold the stylet firmly in place and count to 15 slowly. This will indicate that you have treated the hair for approximately 15 seconds. Removes stylet and use tweezers to gently try to remove the hair. If the hair resists, or if the skin "lifts", re-insert the stylet and treat for another 15 seconds. Treatment time will also vary depending on the position of the Comfort Control Dial and upon the area you are treating. Experiment until you find your treat cycle but do not treat for more than two 15-second cycles at a single sitting. |  | Reply by Linda

I felt nothing either - and yes, I did remove the plastic! nothing at all, ever. There was the white liquid that came out of the folicle, but absolutley no tingling and the hair wasn't easy to remove either. I'm starting to think I've spent my money on a fake product. |
