Hair Removal Methods Do-It-Yourself Electrolysis
#1

Hello, i am a long-term guest of this forum.
I want to buy a epilator to my hair removal for my upper lip and chin only. All I want is the result is permanent and don’t hurt my skin too much and easy for DIYer to use.
I really need your help on this.

I have seen a lot of epilator pricing from $300 to $3000
Why this is such a difference? For me a home DIYer.
For example can the above machine can help me to remove my unwanted hair permanently??
If not, could you, please, suggest my a optimum machine to have a “really professional” result and in a good price??
I am appreciating your help. THANKS

I think it is quite impossible to find pro electrologist in Asia
very painful that mean more hurt to the skin?
why is upper lip difficult to do myself? I thought it is more easy to control…
Thanks for your pro suggestion.
I have suffered this problem for a few years, i am gonna crazy.

That is a great buy, I posted it in the legitimate machines on eBay thread. I have never used a Sofblend before but I am sure some of the pros have and can tell you more. (The company that makes it is out of business but Texas Electro can service it I am sure.)

Pro epilators vary in price like other things (computers, appliances and such) based on features. A beginner DIY doesn’t need much, a simple blend machine is fine (though if you can get a newer, fancier epilator cheap hey go for it :slight_smile: )

If you are a woman (GG) you might be better off just having pro electro. A good DIY set can cost $500+, not including all of the books and time you will spend reading and practicing first. A female upper lip and chin is a small amount of hair relatively speaking. I have a whole body infested with hair so it my case it makes some sense. It is also very difficult to do spots on your own face, since you are not only working backwards and it is also hard to keep your eyes focused on what you are doing.

Could that make permanent hair removal?

I am a man. I want to go for a pro electro treatment. But it is totally not popular in my living city. So I have to DIY.

Absolutely. It is a pro epilator.

A male upper lip with an older machine like that can be very painful, EMLA cream helps. But an upper lip is going to be very slow and difficult to do yourself and it will be painful and aggravating after a while, even with EMLA or similar anesthetics.

If you give up a general idea where you are, we might be able to find you a pro electrologist.
