AFTER PUTTING UP WITH RAZOR RASH FOR TWENTY ODD YEARS I THOUGHT ID GIVE AN EPILATOR A GO.
I HAVE VERY SENSITIVE SKIN AND COARSE DARK HAIR WHICH USUALLY GROWS BACK WITHIN 24 HOURS SO AFTER READING THAT EPILATORS REMOVE HAIR FOR UP TO 4 WEEKS I THOUGHT ID BUY ONE.
IT COST Ģ55.00 FROM THE MARSHALL WARD CATALOGUE BUT THEY ARE READILY AVAILABLE FROM LOTS OF ELECTRICAL STOCKISTS.
ON MY FIRST ATTEMPT I HAVE TO SAY IT WAS PAINFUL I USED THE ICE PACK THAT COMES WITH IT BUT TO BE HONEST I DIDNT FIND IT MUCH HELP.IT TOOK NEARLY 2 HOURS OF STOPPING AND STARTING TO GET BOTH LEGS DONE BECAUSE OF THE PAIN BUT IT IS TRUE AFTER THE FIRST COUPLE OF TIMES IT DOES GET MUCH BETTER.AS FOR HAIR FREE FOR UP TO 4 WEEKS WELL I HAVE TO DO MINE TWICE A WEEK AND DOESNT SEEM TO GET EVERY HAIR YOU HAVE TO GO OVER THE AREA A FEW TIMES AND MINE STILL GROW BACK PRETTY QUICK THOUGH NOT AS QUICKLY AS SHAVING AND YOU DONT GET THE SHARP STUBBLE IT IS A LOT FINER YOU SHOULD MOISTURISE AFTERWARDS AS MY LEGS WENT REALLY DRY AFTER EACH USE.THERES ALSO A SHAVER ATTACHMENT WHICH I USE ON MY UNDERARMS I HAVENT BEEN BRAVE ENOUGH TO EPILATE THEIR YET BUT I HAVE USED IT ON THE BIKINI AREA AND ITS REALLY NOT THAT BAD.
I THINK I WILL KEEP USING IT AS I DONT GET THE ITCHY SPOTS LIKE I DO WITH SHAVING AND IT DOES LAST SLIGHTLY LONGER I SUPPOSE DIFFERENT HAIR TYPES WILL RESPOND DIFFERENTLY.

A good review but the capitals are very off-putting, making me not really want to read it, I know you've stopped doing this in your other reviews though so I wont say anything else :)

Capitals are not reader-friendly.
