No matter how you do it,or what you use sooner or later the hair will come back.So$10 or$350its all the same ,just more pain or less.

never tried to remove hair specifically from this area. device is a little large for that. But if you are patient and careful, it's possible.

it is supposed to shave them, but it just pinched me and pulled out random hairs instead (it's NOT a tweezer so this actually hurt). I would spend a little more for a different product

No. They are just like the clippers the barber uses on your hair but on a smaller scale. I have large barber clippers as well and since I only use them on myself, I have never changed the blade. I have had those clippers well over five years. If this unit will be used for personal use, it should take you years and years, (and I mean years) before you ever need to replace the blades as long as you keep the them oiled and cleaned periodically just like the larger ones.

It has rotating cogs that grab hairs and extract them, not individual tweezers. I have used Tweezes for years and, yes, they do have a life span of at least a year, but I have replaced mine every time with a new one.

They say that you can use it on your chin area - but only with one of the sets of tweezers (at an angle) not both.

I don't know - I thought it was permanent!! But if you find out, let me know! arlerose@aol.com

No they are not easy to remove. There is some pulling because of the texture on the roller, so your hair will have this static like effect

on a daily basis yes,plus still need tweezers, looking into the "No No" so hair will eventually be removed.

I can confirm it does not remove permanent hair dye. Cannot attest to temporary solutions.

I am going to say 17 total, if by "tweezer heads" you mean the pairs of metal grippers that rotate in together to catch the hair. It looks like 3-4-3-3-4 staggered. Hope that helps. It is so much less painful after the first go, even in the underarm and bikini areas which are very unpleasant at first. I recommend giving it a try. Do follow the directions to bathe/shower in warmth to open the follicles, then dry off completely before using it.

It took me a while to get used to them, but I sure do like them now. They are by far the best tweezers I've had. You just have to find the right angle to turn them. Sometimes, I hold the blade sideways. Hope this helps.

Like waxing or threading, this device removes the hair by the root. I find all these methods to have similar effect on growth time, which can vary person to person. I enjoy this product because it is quick and travel friendly - I keep it in my purse and use it often (unlike waxing and threading) which is the real benefit, not so much its superiority in slowing hair regrowth. Hope this helps...

No. Just painful hair removal. I've gone to salons and had waxing, and this was worse.

It actually is permanent. It bleaches your hair much the way the natural sunshine does, just faster (and with a blew dryer if you like). It will be as drastic as you want it to be depending on how often you use it. If you like the way your hair looks with sun bleaching then you will like the way this looks :)

I've been using it for a while and it breaks your hair not from root(some of them)...I tried it on my eyebrows it can rip off your entire eyebrow. I think if best to use tweezers for your eyebrows its easier and faster. This spring facial hair remover works with thin hair, but it breaks them. Personally I stopped using it, because the hair I damaged with this tool started growing darker and wilder.

The epilator head, yes, I can see it being usable in the upper lip area (I'd imagine it would hurt a lot, but you'll get used to the hair being pulled out). I've been using it to remove hair in my axillae and rarely my legs. As far as eyebrows, the smaller trimmer head is supposed to be usable to trim that area, but it would require practice - I've only done it once back when I first got this item.
