Philips Epilator Series 2000, Corded Epilator for Legs and Body, Hair Removal Device for Women, Model BRE227/00

Writing a review because this machine deserves more credit than 4.2 stars. TLDR: loud but does it's job. think of it as a "tweezing machine." it does just that. it's gonna pinch a little if you don't like tweezing and have low pain tolerance. but me and my friend used it- no hassle. compact. you can do it literally sitting anywhere. note: hair doesn't catch inside and does land on skin or on the massage add on lip. but I'd rather vacuum and easy wipe with a paper towel than all the prep/clean up other hair removal methods take. Full: (I'm an asian women with thinner body hair. I've just noticed that as I'm aging into my 30s, I noticed more hair follicles and longer strand growing on my arms and legs. People would say "there's nothing there" but I myself just don't want to see it so I started looking into methods.) Shaving was such a chore and I really don't like how it feels prickly and spiky after a few days. I didn't consider laser bc of cost (diy/at home type of girl), I don't really have a lot to get things done professionally, and much like the gel nail polish, I'm just a little slower to warming up to new methods of beauty and it's long term effects. I've gotten into but didn't enjoy sugar waxing because of the prep, the clean up, the mess. so when I saw the stars on this, I was skeptical but used it last night. worked like a charm. I also love that I can easily "just shave my legs" without like mentally booking a day/ mentally readying myself for all the hassle of waxing or taking more time in the shower to shave and not slip. it's a no nonsense gadget. I love it. It feels very analog and brings me back to like practical machines in early 2000s where one machine did one job and you see how it works. I would recommend it to my friends.

Llego antes de lo previsto. Es un excelente depilador, cumple con su función. Es un buen sustituto de la rasuradora porque dura más tiempo en salir el vello. Sí duele, dependiendo de la zona del cuerpo duele un poco más o menos, pero recomiendo depilarse cuando el vello es pequeño. Los poros quedan irritados un poco, se llegan a observar incluso zonas enrojecidas que duran 2 o 3 días, pero nada grave. El cabezal si tiene buena cobertura, entonces se depila un tanto rápido, dependiendo de la cantidad de vello. Buen precio para la función.

So the product is not for indian houses returning it on day of receiving the product

I wont lie to you, this sucker hurts, especially on areas of more sensitive skin. However, it works like a charm and I am OBSESSED with it. Listen, I'm a girl who suffers from PCOS and excessive body hair. I am also a professional cosmetologist and I have access to various high quality and professional hair removal methods. Hear me out: I hate shaving because it causes ingrown hairs and makes my facial hair grow back darker and thicker and much more obvious. I have used DOZENS of different shaving methods an still have this issue. Having someone else wax my face is expensive, especially for someone like me who genuinely needs it on a 10-14 day cycle. I can, and do wax myself at home, but hard wax or soft wax, it is very time consuming, messy, and expensive to buy the products needed as frequently as I need to use them. I am not over exaggerating; I grow a TON of hair ridiculously fast. Of course, tweezing each individual hair is even more time consuming and I have reached a point in my life in which trying to keep up with my own hair growth just to feel female is completely overwhelming. I decided to give this epilator a try and I am HOOKED. It is such an easy, simple, mess-free and speedy way to remove my facial and body hair without killing my bank account! It pulls the hairs right out like a wax, providing a longer-lasting hairlessness than shaving. It's like a ton of electric tweezers all moving together to grab multiple hairs at once. It even cleans the peach fuzz! I can't lie, it's not painless. I always hate waxing my upper lip because it hurts like the dickens and this was much worse in terms of pain, especially because you can feel it snagging each individual hair instead of one quick rip like wax. I am so desperate for the hair to be gone in a more manageable way though, and it is so 100% worth it for me to endure a few minutes of discomfort so that I can enjoy multiple days of smoothness. This might not be everyone's cup of tea, especially with so many more modern forms of hair removal today, but I seriously couldn't be happier with the results. No woman should have a beard like man, haha!

Literally stopped working after first use
