I have personally never used it on my underarms, I do regularly use it on my arms. I think it might be pretty painful to use in the armpit area. If you can stand the pain, I am sure it would work!

yes you can. I would advise to shave the area first. Let it grow for a couple of days. Then go ahead Epilator. After that keep at it every two days or so.

I use it on my chest, legs and underarms as well. It works really well and a lot quicker than any of my other shavers. The blade is HUGE!

I use regular deodorant still everyday. I applied the hydrosal every day for several weeks then I applied it every other day. Now I am on my second bottle and apply it a few times a week. It works great and has saved me regarding my issue. You can use it externally on several parts of your body, not just hands or underarms. My dermatologist told me about this product.

Hey Bobby . . . . I used a T-outliner before switching to this (both Andis). Since I've started using this, I've noticed how much easier it is maneuver although I'm no professional barber. Not just squaring off a lineup but getting those round corners is no problem with this blade since it is much shorter in length compared to the T-blade. This machine is also not too large to fit inmy hand nor is it too heavy. It can get a bit warm or hot if you use it for an extensive period continuously. When I'm finished lining up, I'm always super happy with how clean my hairline mark is. No doubt, you would be satisfied with this over the T-blade. It would definitely give you the look you want when lining up your beard, mustache and hairline. However, please not that it doesn't give a clean smooth look when using it for a close shave. I shave all my beard off using a razer shaver. But other than that, I highly recommend it Bobby. All my past barbers use this on their clients. Hope I answered you question and helped you make a great choice.

I use it daily to shave, and weekly to cut my hair. I'm partially bald, and just use the thinnest attachment when cutting my hair. When I shave I don't use an attachment at all, just the blade directly against my skin.My unit has definitely had some problems (see others' reviews) but this thing had been pretty good in the 2+ years that I've owned it.

Yes. I usually shave in the shower and use a regular razor on underarms. Even thought this is good for a wet/dry shave, I don't use it that way.I have used it once and it worked well.

no, I wouldn't try it on the face or other sensitive areas. not even underarms. There are others for sensitive area. I would look at Philips, even Braun could have something with attachments for sensitive areas.

I have never used the Remington, so can't speak of its effectiveness. As for the Tria, I think it would NOT work and would be painful to use. I am very light skinned and it worked for bikini line and most chin hairs, and got my leg hair to be very light colored, but my legs still have quite a bit of hair. It became painful to use when I had a tan. It was working on my underarm BUT I THINK IT WOULD TAKE AT LEAST 5 YEARS to finish the underarms, which is ridiculous.

You don't simply sub it on your body: you have to use it with water. In order to use it for underarms, you'd have to shower with it. Just use soap.

Never tried it underarms but it would be tricky. I use the Epilady and it works there for me.

It works very good on underarms, just use any kind of powder before using the epilator, because the hair sticks because of sweat. Its actually a very good product.

I agree, that yes, it works great for underarms. However, once you use it on your underarms you have to continue using it. Otherwise it hurts with a regular razor. I first used it on that area about 3 months ago, and have been trying to use a regular razor there since!...it still hurts. I would use it all the time, but I don't keep it in the shower, and don't think to charge it often enough.

NoIt says, and I quote, "Designed for use on the legs, arms, underarms, and bikini line, but not suitable for use on the face..." on the instructions. Do NOT use it on your face!

Armpit, forearms, and leg you don't want hair there in the first place for a female so if you are losing it there than that's a plus. But eyebrow hair for more of it to grow out, I think the hair on top of your head behaves differently and grows differently. It may or may not effect eye brow hair. This product is used for men with high DHT levels causing the hair on their head to become shorter and thinner until the hair follicles disappear.

It's odd because the instructions say specifically not to use it above the neckline. I'm not sure if this is because Philips doesn't want to cannibalize sales of their other products or if there is a legit reason. That being said, I've never used it on my face and don't plan to, even though I'm sure it would work sufficiently if needed. It still is a trimming device.

I use this for personal grooming -mustache, beard, around the ears, neckline, general "manscaping". It works fine. You won't get a 'clean shave' with this because it is designed for animals. You can press this up to the skin without getting cut/cutting animal, but you'll get close enough to give maybe 1/32" cut -a "day's growth" appearance" Have had it for 4 years now and still trims the hairs on my dogs' muzzles and ears too. Looking for replacement only because the combs I use for me broke and no replacements are available for purchase it seems
