This works for me and it does take a week or more for the hair to grow back. It's just the pain factor that's a problem.
Otherwise I would suggest getting a free consult to see how much time and money it would take to get your hair lasered off.
I would consider Laser if it wasn't for the cost, at the moment I cant spare that amount of money.
the last time I tried my epilator the pain factor almost had me in tears, and I actually have a high pain tolerance for anything else.
and I did use the included spray to deaden the skin, unfortunately its effects wore off in about 20 seconds and didn't work worth a darn again afterwards.

However, you may find it easier to accomplish if you trim your hair to 1/8", or even a little less, before you use the epilator. The instructions should have mentioned that. You'd be surprised how short the hair can be and it will still get a hold of it.
The Instructions said 1/4" to 1/2" minimum if I remember.

Bryony states that she breaks a few on her under-breast area, and I almost always break some around my kneecaps. But, I understand that, as nature made the skin a little tougher there, so it makes sense that pulling the hair would be more difficult. It won't take long and you will notice a reduction in the amount of hair that grows back, as well as the coarseness will be reduced. That was my experience before I started my boob quest, and after that, with the things I was taking, it only made it quicker.
well, i'll give it another try, but I will have to wait a bit the hairs are only about 1/16" atm, should be 1/8" by tomorrow afternoon/night at the latest.
at least I already have the area around my nipples tweezed so I wont have to get close to those with it.
now to figure out how to epilate my own back.....
