Don't believe the hype
I bought this product from the mall. I was assured that after a few weeks of regular use, I would see some results. I did half of my chest daily with this product, the other half was shaved. After 5 weeks of DAILY use, I so no significant difference between the 2 sides of my chest. The product seems to use the same technology as a bug zapper. It has what looks like an electrified cord that skims along just above your skin, burning hairs. The smell of burning hair is strong. The idea is that somehow the heat of the cord travels down the hair to the root and damages the follicle. I am not sure that this explanation is actually plausible (which is why I tried it). I followed the instructions to the letter, and notice no real results. I think the company relies on TV orders because they hope you just wont send it back for the refund. It is quite pricey, so I am sure that even with a significant number of returns, they still profit heavily from those who never get around to mailing it back. I returned mine to the mall. They said perhaps mine was defective, and offered me a new one. They said that it happens sometimes... which makes me trust the product even less. I actually observed two other returns while I was waiting to have mine processed. Long story short: This product did not work for me, as advertised. I am disappointment, but not shocked either.
