Great Product

I've never used one of these before and was pleasantly surprised. It rips hair out like a chainsaw. It does hurt, especially the first time you use it but it seems to lessen with subsequent use. You can see the root on many of the hairs that are pulled out which obviously helps extend the amount of time that it takes for regrowth. It also takes some time to learn how to apply the correct pressure but once you get used to it is worth it.
LOVE IT! LOVE IT! LOVE IT!

I just received my Emjoi Gold Epilator and I love it! Being used to a lot of pain with my old epilator, I grabbed the towel I usually bite down on when I epilate. To my surprise I no longer need it. This Emjoi Epilator is wonderful. Not only is the pain a great deal less, but it does an excellent job of removing the hair. I used it both under my arms and on my legs with great results. It removed even the tiny hairs. It did take a pass or two, but so did my other epilator. I'm an older lady and my underarms are no longer where they used to be. Needless to say, I sag. And this was a concern I had when I ordered this epilator. I had read where others said the curve of this epilator caused problems for them. But I did not find this to be so for me. It fit nicely and I was able to epilate without much of the stretching of the skin that I had to do with my other epilator. I'm extremely pleased with it.
Good Investment

I have been having my legs waxed for about 5 years and I decided to look at cheaper alternatives. I did a lot of research on which one of these would be a good choice and the Emjoi Gold Caress kept coming up on top of the list. I was nervous about the whole idea but decided with the guarantee is was worth taking a chance. I am completely delighted. I don't think that it is as painful as waxing. I take a hot shower or a hot bath just prior to using it and it works great. It removes the hair as well or better than waxing. I am very satisfied with the results and I wish I had done it about 4 years ago.
Great product!

Really grabs all those fine short hairs on face and anywhere you choose! Easy to clean. Beats waxing! Hair takes awhile to grow back. Really glad I purchased this!!

Hurts as ** but works great!!!!! Used it all over my body, pulls out very thin light hair as well as hard darker ones. Its worth to go through the pain, which is not worse than waxing. Just did my bikini which I could never wax unless I had it done. I am very happy with this product and my smooth body ;) A+

I have been a Epi-Lady user for years, so when I saw an add for the Emjoi Gently Gold Caress Hair Removal System, I thought I would give it a try. totally awesome, so much faster than the Epi-lady and a lot less pain.

I rated this 5 stars because it is gentle on the 'ouch' scale. Instead of yanking out the stubborn hairs like previous models, it seems to not grip them as tightly. Those stubbon hairs will have to be tweezed by hand or shaved. Everything else comes off smoothly and painless for the most part. Guys, I use this on my face and all over except armpits and 'down there'. I love it. I wore out the previous model. I use it about once or twice a month. If you catch the hair at the right growing time it will pull out the follicle, too. No hair ever grows back there. Use Ambosol teething gel on your skin to deaden pain if you are new at this. Do not try to remove all your mostashe at one time unless your you-know-whats are made of cast iron. Pic 1 is 4 yrs ago, 24hr beard growth when I started. Pic 2 is 4mo later with 2wk beard growth. Think of the time I wasted shaving all my life before this.
Loved It

Excellent product. Much cleaner and easier than waxing. Very little pain for me, when I first used it, I wondered if it was working because I could hardly feel it! My daugher on the other hand is not used to waxing, and thought it was very painful, but for me I thought it was the best invention ever!
This gem is well worth its purchase price!

Seriously... it would have been a bargain for twice the price. I absolutely love this gadget! I was terrified to try it, having heard many a horror story about the torture instrument known as the epilady. Once I got my Emjoi Gently gold Caress, I never looked back! So yes, the concept of a mechanized super-tweezer pulling out your hair is sorta scary, but it sounds far worse than it really is. On a pain scale of 1-10, with 1 being stubbing your toe and 10 being childbirth, I'd give it the following ratings: For lower leg use, 2. Underarms, 2.5~3. Thighs and bikini area: 3.5. Mildly painful, yes, but no more so than waxing and tweezing. Unlike waxing, you can work at your own pace, take a break if you need to, and then continue. There's no mess, so sticky gunk on your hands and legs and delicate areas, and it's very very easy to get the hang of. I've been using it for about 3 months, and I've already noticed a significant increase in the time it takes hair to grow back in. The hair on my legs and underarms is also much finer than before, always a good thing! I highly recommend this product. It's been a lifesaver, especially in the winter. I always get nasty, dry, itchy skin when I shave in the winter, but this little wonder has never given me a rash or ingrown hair. I would definitely buy this product again. Hope that helps!
