I thought about getting something similar and I still might, but as far as beard/neck goes I just plan on getting it done professionally.

This seems great for everything below the neck though.  I've been epilating the hell out of everything but it seems to grow like wildfire.  Hopefully hormones will help with that, but I won't know for another few months!

If you do get it though, you must tell us all how it works out :)

Pssshhhh, I just read some reviews and I think I am going to buy one now before I talk myself out of it.

I am so sick of my body hair, but I am scared to hell about screwing up my facial hair somehow, or there being some sort of circumstance where I need facial hair and I can no longer grow it.

Sorry, I have a huge dysphoria with facial hair.  It is the only thing that makes me feel like a man, and I know that I should want to get rid of it, but there is something in the back of my mind that keeps telling me "but if it is gone forever then you will never be able to pass as a man again" and instead of that making me happy like it should, it makes me anxious (lots of anxiety issues for a long time here) and I get too scared to pull the trigger and rid it forever.

i feel the same way. i hate shaving. i have an andro voice but my beard is a dead give away and it drives me nuts. imma go ahead and take the risk to lol. i have 6 months to pay it off so its well worth it for permanent results and not spending hundreds for 30 minute sessions lol

Sounds interesting. I've been epilating for over a decade now and while my body hair isn't anywhere near what I used to have (thankfully most of that hair was only on arms and legs, never been as hairy on my torso and chest), it still continues to grow. I'd love to get something like this, if it works, that is works without issues, like without causing skin damage or something, and does indeed eventually stop the hair growth.

I want to do it, but I literally just ordered a new epilator like an hour ago.... but that could always make an amazing gift to someone I love (who likes pain)

*hmmmm ponders*

Okay, I am going to buy one right now, but we have to make a new thread documenting the results! :D

For some reason I thought my screen said $142, not $342.

That makes a big difference in my impulse buying :-\

Okay, now why is eBay so much cheaper?  I never trust eBay, but for a $200 discount.... should I?

is that the actually price you pay and not have to bid?

Yup!  That's Buy-It-Now and that seller has an incredible feedback rating....

I'm so torn.  It costs only $60 more than the epilator I just bought, but epilating just doesn't last long enough for me anymore.  I don't want any hair on my body ever again.

i can tell you this, the pulses last long enough for 2-3 full body before you have to replace the head lol. its 1,500 pulses. the one i ordered though its 30,000 pulses. stupid me didnt look but at least i wont have to get a replacement head for a very long time lol

How much are replacement heads?  I'm looking for a reason to buy this even though I need to be saving my money for much more expensive things that I need... lol

Alright, so I am going to buy one and be an experiment.  I will laser half of my body and epilate the other and then post pictures... I am rather happy with the results of epilation but the idea of permanent(ish) hairloss at this price just seems too good to be true.  I am still not going to use it on my face or neck.  Okay, maybe I will use it on my neck, but not my face.  Or maybe I will. 

UGHHHH

Why do I get so scared to just go perma-girl?  That's right, it's because I'm almost 30 and my (soon-to-be-ex) wife constantly tries to make me feel shameful.
