Firstly, in my experience, this is only a temporary hair removal tool like say a razor, only this burns the hairs off rather than cutting them. Bearing this in mind, you experience a burnt hair smell throughout the time you use it which isn't very pleasant but you get used to it. It takes FOREVER to use and so you need the patience of a saint! It advises you don't go over the same area more than 4 times (and only in one direction) but if you stick to that it doesn't really work. It's easy to use on straight areas like legs but much harder to use on curved areas such as underarms where you have to pull the skin taught with one hand and use the No!No! with the other so it doesn't 'bump' along over your skin. I bought this specifically for the coarser hairs that have sprung up around and under my chin (I'm at that age!)and have found that it doesn't remove these at all - even on the highest (hottest) setting which I found too hot on my sensitive skin. I don't think I'd want to use it on my face.
Personally I wouldn't recommend this as it's expensive, smelly, time consuming and in my humble opinion it is only a temporary hair remover at best.
If you do want to try it for yourself I would recomment you get it from whoever gives you the longest time period to try it so that if it doesn't work for you then you can send it back and get your money refunded.
