Okay ladies...we all know one of the awful embarrassing and really ahrd to remove/keep up with problems with pcos is...facial hair. I have some on my chin and little bit of a side burn. Weather you have a little or a lot....this thing works I wish I knew about this years ago. THE EPILATOR. It works so good. Its a nifty little machine and it had about 50 mini tweezers on it and it looks like an electric razor but its not.....it tweezes the hairs out from the root and it works so good!!! Your skin will be smooth and nothing will grow back for about 2 weeks! It way better than wax because i know when i would wax it wouldnt get everything and you can only wax over the same area one or 2 times before you get a rash. Also with wax you have to wait for the hair to grow back to a noticable state before you can wax it off..this thing gets hairs that r reeeally short!

Oh this thing is the sh*t. I jsut thought I would let anyone in on it that doesnt know about it. that is all :)

I have a little hand held called  Emjoi Tweeze. It's an "as seen on TV" product. It works pretty good. But man does it fricken hurt! How much did this epilator cost you? That one has to hurt equally I'm guessing!

it was like fifty bucks but so totally worth it...i used to wax so really it didnt hurt that much for me! It was a remington and i got it at target.

I ordered one from Amazon.com a couple of weeks ago, but haven't gotten up the nerve to try it yet! Keeping my fingers crossed that it works!

I have also used babying teething gel.  It will numb the area and it will not hurt so bad.

I couldn't agree more!  Using an epilator was by far the BEST at-home method of facial hair removal for me.  It's not messy like waxing is and it gets more of the hair.  The only problem I had with this is the ingrown hairs...not as bad as when I waxed, but they were still there.  It does hurt a little, but totally worth it.  Mine came with a cooling pack to use afterwards and I didn't need it at all.   

I have recently given my Epilator to my cousin that has the same problems, because I was SUPER fortunate to have a laser hair removal place in my town do a Groupon.  i have had three of the eight treatments and it's AMAZING.  I got my sideburns and under my chin for $200. 

If you can't afford the laser hair removal...the epilator is the way to go!
