I have an epilator but anyone who has one knows how awful that can be. Does anyone have a no-no? Does it work well? :)

    My mother has one. She loves the darned thing. She says the hair stay away for a while. from what I can see it kind of burns the hair??
    I personally get lasered so I havent done the no-no first hand.

    I heard that it burns it off, it sure smells like burnt hair.
    I just want my hair gone though xD

    You dont like your epilator? I hated mine at first... but now its kind of a stress reliver...


    Weird? eh who cares.
    Only other thing is laser, but that can get expensive depending on the area...

    I totally read this wrong...i was thinking hair removal on your no-no parts.

    I'm ready to offer my grooming services.

    Laser although slightly pricey has been quite effective. I barely have any leg hairs left and have now moved onto other parts, including no-no parts lol Its slightly more painful in the underarms and privates. But hurts way less than waxing! I hear epilation is not much fun either.:tongue:
    To be noted laser works best on dark hair light skin.
    The no-no does come with a hair growth reducing cream, not sure how effective it is, but just though Id throw that in there.

    Yeah, my hair's almost black and my skin pretty much glows :P
    And I have a low pain tolerance, so I'm sweating and sick by the time I'm done epilating ahha

    I've read some very negative reviews on it through the Internet.

    Same here. I have gone through childbirth and have large tattoos. Who knew pulling out a few hairs could leave me shaking and dizzy?!
