Thank you so much for your honesty. I would have bought this and struggled with stinging myself for and hour a day twice a week, for 8 weeks. Only to see the hair grow back and I’d still be shaving. Thank you so much for saving me from that.
Thank you so so much for taking the time to do the trial, videos, and being vulnerable to share this. I'm broke and would of wasted what little money I do have on this. Plus i would of gone nuts after 8 weeks with no resolution. Lol. I appreciate your honesty! Thanks! - your new subscriber
Quality video and concise update, which is highly appreciated! I had high hopes this thing would work, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Thanks for saving the wife and I 8 weeks of wasted time. Thumbs up!
I've been using the device pretty consistently on my underarms for longer than recommended and haven't seen a difference. I've also burned myself and gotten zapped, which was not fun. I've been debating returning the device and your super honest and well done review has validated my decision. Thank you!
I found it worked great for me on superfulous hair(hair that’s not supposed to be there) such as chin and face. It has also worked on my big toes! As far as pubes and underarms, I’m sure it will take longer. I’m happy w my purchase.
I’m specifically hoping it will work for my face, as I have pretty intense sideburns and get more than an average amount of dark hairs on my chin/neck area. So this is encouraging, thanks for sharing!
This was actually given to me by my anxious cousin who purchased it and was then too scared to use it 😂, and I’m so glad I came across your videos! We love an honest queen. I’m going to try it out still but I do appreciate your honesty it’s very refreshing, thank you for taking the time to inform us!!
@@rylee2048 I’m gonna be honest I tried to do this, but I’m just too lazy and also too busy with more important things, to shave this frequently and then do this whole process as many times a week as it requires. Maybe one day when I’m not working full time and in school I will get to give it a go but for now it’s just too time consuming & more important things come first…and in my little bit of free time I do have, you can BET I’m not doing this😂😂 sorry I can’t be very helpful!
Appreciate your straightforward review. As a guy, I've been weighing options, and it looks like sticking with the razor or some kind of depilatory cream. Keep up the good work 🤙
Just watched your video about Jovs and save me a lot of money. So Thank you for that. Getting everyday emails from them offering discounts got me thinking and starting searching info and that’s how I found your video. I’m considering buying an ipl device, read a lot about it, even scientific research and even with 80 J/cm2 the results after 3 months were 30% less hair, in 2001. So with common 5-6 J/cm2 on home devices it’s gonna be long road. I’ve got my mind on Philips or Braun, not sure yet. And they explain after a few months of regular treatments followed with several top-up sessions once a month or twice then will appear bald patches that will become bigger. So if high brands say it takes that long….you can imagine for fake products… I should mention that I’m having some hormonal imbalance and there are places where I almost don’t have hair but the bikini area is multiple hairs in one follicle which is horrible. In December I have birthday so I might make myself an early present 😊 In my experience when it comes to expensive devices it’s either the best or nothing at all 😂 Women’s problems - we want the best but not too expensive with the best results, in a flash 😊
I’ve had my armpits professionally lasered - it hurts 100x worse than this device (bc they obviously use a much stronger laser professionally) which makes me believe that using this will take several more sessions and more time. I have had 9 sessions done professionally on my underarms (spaced 6-8 weeks apart) and while with each session the hair grew slower and thinner, I still do have some patches that grow very slowly. I find it strange that the device worked better on your legs than your bikini/underarms bc typically thicker & darker hair actually has a better result because there is more contrast that the laser can attach to. I bought this device for my legs with the expectation that it would take several more sessions than what I’ve had done professionally to see any lasting result - I’ve been using it for 3 months now and I think I am starting to notice some change but I am wondering if it is only because the laser is destroying the hair follicles temporarily until they are able to grow back (the reason you wait 6 weeks in between professional laser appointments- because that is about how long it takes for hair follicles to repair themselves and grow normally again).
I think it would be interesting to see if it might work after 16 weeks. It is one of those things that would be a good deal if it did work, but I am skeptical for sure.
Hair grows in different cycles. Since you age a multitudinous amount of hair follicles in any one given area, each follicle is in a different cycle. The is one one area of the cycle where this type of procedure works during the cycle of growth. This is why it is recommended to use this for an extended amount of time. 2 weeks is NOT near long enough to see a difference!
Per the instructions, maintenance to make it permanent is 1-2x a month for a year or more, no? Its like after braces, if you just take them off your body just goes back, which is why people wear retainers for years after they get their braces off. Not as drastic as the braces, but necessary till your body stops trying to go back to how it was.
Have you tried an epilator? I started using one back in 2009/2010, and now I can go months without using it. And whenever I DO use it, I don't have to for very long because most of the hair is already gone.
I epilate also! You’re so lucky it’s months in between LOL. I’m naturally a hairy beast, I’m probably every other month. My armpit hairs aren’t as full, but I have some ‘survivors’ I have to take care of monthly. But it’s so much better than shaving!
@@moonrise1035 Well, to be clear it took a little while to get to that point of going months in between. First it was a couple/few weeks, but then it extended the longer I epilated. If you're rather new to it, eventually it should end up like that for you too!
i had to use IPL weekly for 4mths (16wks) before any visible results. and my legs took a year (though at 4 months, i started to use the laser only monthly) and now the hairs are 80% gone. (im light skinned with dark black hair which IPL is generally effective for) as for armpits, im in my second year using it (i use it every other week still, in my second year) but it hasnt really stopped any growth. but, it certainly slowed it down to turtle speed, so i only need to shave once every 2-3 weeks
Were you using it at the highest setting and going over each section 3x each time? I have seen different people using the device and they don't say what level or that they flash each spot 3x,so it makes me wonder if it was just a problem with that. The product instructions are listed several places but they aren't consistently saying to do it 3x in each spot.
Yes, I used it on the highest setting and I went over each section 3 times. I only saw the instruction of going over each spot 3 times mentioned in one place. 😬
If your skin has no adverse reaction to using it indefinitely then why not continue with a top up routine? My issue is that I want lots more tattoos but I also want a hair free body. Some have said they had in office laser and after 6 years of stopping treatment it barely grows anymore but then for others it comes right back. Luck of the draw I suppose
I don't know why they say permanent results at 8 weeks because the nature of hair follicles makes it impossible for any hair removal technique to achieve that in less than a year. Of course there will be fresh hair growth if anyone stops after only 8 weeks. Without further treatment, it'll soon look like the first phase never happened. I'm at 7 weeks and wondering if I should continue using it on the same schedule for longer than 8 weeks or just give up and return it. I've emailed them about it.
@@KathySanthouse I think they know this too. 90 days is too short of a window for something like this. I have about 4 weeks to go before my window closes but it's looking like a return so far.
@@GinTemoshawsky I feel like it’s definitely part of their strategy. It sounds really good that they have this return policy, but I’m sure a lot of people don’t actually return it.
Well, hair will 100% grow back especially if you stop using after 2 months....it's supposedly permanent if you continue to use with touch ups and coarser hair will take longer.
So this wouldn’t work on men’s facial hair, then… I was really hoping I finally had a way to get rid of my facial hair permanently without spending a ton of money on electrolysis
I spent thousands on professional laser hair removal and it also grew back after a few months. I think the body just really likes to make annoying body hair.
They have such a crass ad that I'd never buy from them. I know they and many think it's cute but that's no substitute for cleverness. Idc who scoffs. I know I'm not alone.
So, I actually don’t think this is a bad product- I just hate how they marketed it. I’ve gotten professional laser done, and even estheticians tell you that the hair doesn’t fully disappear- it just blend better and it isn’t so obvious to see (in my case, dark dark brown hair on extremelt fair skin 😅). I feel as though nood should have marketed it as just a hair removal product, not a PERMANENT hair removal product because not even laser is fully permanent…
I bought it to use it on my butt hole but it takes too much time to flash every single spot so I decided to use it on my foot instead to try it out. I been using it for over a month and yes it slows it down but not permanently removes it and I’ll be returning it and getting a full refund. I have a strange feeling this thing is going to give a lot of people cancer, due to the flasher being very strong .
That is not permanent. It last for couple of weeks only if you stop using it. The only way to get a permanent hair removal is only by removing each individual root too… sorry 🤷🏻♂️
Terrible misleading review. The product does not promise permanent removal after 2 months. It says you may see it, but can take much longer. This is meant to be ongoing treatment until completely gone.
Thank you for getting straight to the point and not being long-winded. You definitely saved me some 💰

Hair has a growth cycle. I got electrolysis as a preteen and depending on when you zapped the hair in it's growth cycle has a lot to do with it.
I have heard that! It makes sense. ☺️
