Emjoi AP99

Pros: Fast, virtually painless, thoroughly removes all hair, shaver and travel case included

Cons: hurts a bit when epilating underarms, corded would have preferred it to be cordless

The Bottom Line: An efficient way to get rid of hair without the mess of waxes, the expense of electrolysis, or the drudgery of daily shaving.

Review: I came on here last November and researched the epilator reviews. I really wanted one for Christmas.
I've tried everything in the last 6 months for something to replace shaving. I was using wax strips made in France, and they seemed to work pretty...

Pros: removes all hair, relatively fast, improved results over time

Cons: painful at first, ingrown hair

The Bottom Line: Once you try it, you will wonder how you ever did without it

Review: I think this epilator is great! Shaving for 10 years led me look for a more effective hair removal method, so I tried sugar wax first. It ok, but:

1. Its a mess!
2. You have re-heat the wax over and over
3. You cease shaving for a...

Pros: Clean up a snap; one-time investment, nothing else to buy; very good results.

Cons: Hard to get into nooks, results not as long as wax, hurts more than wax.

The Bottom Line: It's worth the one-time investment for the ease of clean up and the joy of getting rid of all the hair at once at my convenience.

Review: It does hurt some, but all hair removal hurts some. I got this to avoid the mess of cleaning wax off of my skin and every surface in the bathroom (and I always found sticky spots on the floor after I mopped with special wax remover stuff). I also hated ...

Pros: Ultra smooth legs, quick and easy to use, relatively inexpensive versus waxing regularly

Cons: Somewhat loud, fear inducing, possibly painful

The Bottom Line: Works well but you must be willing to give it a chance and work through any discomfort. Do small spaces at a time and get used how it feels.

Review: I hate stubble; I mean hate it BAD. So I began waxing my legs - myself. Even with salon quality materials it was a messy undertaking. So I began having my legs professionally waxed, but you have to let the regrowth reach a certain length prior ...

Pros: Two rows for smoothly across skin. Strong motor & quiet. Skin Safety feature works.

Cons: Universal voltage would be a nice plus.

The Bottom Line: Yes, there are a few ways to rid yourself of hair but it still comes down to practical application, doesn't it?

Review: I've used other Rotary Epilators (Philips and Remington) over the years and they are great machines for pain, if your into that sort of thing and they never did work very well.

However, this Twin Rotary Epilator works smoothly, has a strong...

Pros: Gets better with time. Don't give up!!! Think smooth.

Cons: loud and corded

The Bottom Line: It is probably the best $100 I have spent on myself in a very long time.

Review: I bought this product after reading the previous reviews on this website. I was looking for an epilator that was the least painful and that I could use on my underarm hair. Living in FL, I am frequently in sleeveless outfits and I really wanted to use a ...

Pros: Little pain. Quick and efficient.

Cons: Corded. Travel case is bulky.

The Bottom Line: If you want silky, hairless skin with little pain try the Emjoi Optima!

Review: Don't hate me. I am one of those rare females who grow very little hair on their legs. I shave my le ...

Pros: Works great and not much pain. Stops spinning if it grabs skin.

Cons: It died on me after one year.

The Bottom Line: Yes, but be aware it might die within a year.

Review: I bought this about a year ago after reading a lot of these reviews. I've used it about once a month since then and it worked great. The one time it caught my skin behind my knee it stopped right away so it didn't really hurt. It leaves little red ...

Pros: Easy to use. Two heads.

Cons: Slight pain takes a little getting used to.

Review: I owned an older model of an Emjoi previously and when my cat chewed through the cord I decided to upgrade. I did some research and thought this would be the way to go since it offers 2 heads - one for shaving like underarms and bikini area and the ...

Pros: Large epilating area, 2 directions (less painful & quicker), interchangeable razor head

Cons: No cordless option

Review: I had an old Silk Epil by Norelco for several years and when it finally died I searched for the best epilator. I am very happy with this one, and it exceeds the quality of my old Norelco! The large area and 2 sets of tweezers that go in opposite ...
