Best Laser Hair Removal Chicago (2024 Update)

I am a skincare lover and have been getting regular dermaplaning at my go-to spa for the past few years. However, with price increases lately, shelling out the $200 (with tip) was painful. I love that the Dermaflash device costs less than one single treatment at the spa, yet delivers the same awesome results. It is easy to use, comfortable to hold, and leaves my skin feeling super smooth! I also notice that my serums & treatments absorb much better with weekly Dermaflash use. The only downside is that the blades as single use, but it makes sense, and it still saves me so much money over regular trips to the spa.Melissa G.

WOW! I'm absolutely in love with it! I have some peach fuzz on the side of my face, and on my chin and above my face, little tiny blond hairs that didn’t bother me much but I’ve been very curious about trying Dermaflash and now I’m in total awe! I’m amazed at how much fuzz it took and the stark difference it made – I look younger which really surprised me! My skin is more luminous and it’s incredibly soft! It felt incredible to touch it and apply lotion which I feel absorbed into my skin much better after use. I also got some little blonde peach fuzz hairs off my belly button! I love it so much, this will definitely be part of my new skin routine!!Elena K.

I recently tried this Dermaflash Luxe+ and I can say that I have been very impressed by this product. It is a simple and straightforward product too that gently exfoliates the skin. It easily removes the fuzz peach. I love that it's lightweight and charges easily. I like the skinprep that comes with it. I wish that the microfine edges were somehow made reusable. Other than that, it's a nice staple to use weekly. I am very pleased with it.Naffy

I have never used a hair removal product and I needed to remove my chest hair (and I am a bit hairy). I tried this one after a minimal amount of research. I followed the instructions exactly and not much happened. I did it again later with more time and my hair just kind of came off-it was weird. Bottom-line, it worked.iHerb Customer

I bought this because time is short with a 1 year old in the house so trimming is not currently an option. Here’s the lowdown. It’s £9, stinks of rotting flesh. Tried shoulders, hips and feet. Of which the latter two – nothing happened. Shoulders were patchy – not even 1/3 came off. Apparently results only last 5-7. Which begs the question- why bother even if it did work? It’s not often I’m disappointed in something. How do I get a refund? The only think this gets rid of is the £10 I binned in good faith.James1982

Okay, this is probably going to be a little bit of an embarrassing review. I feel that sometimes it's super important to do one of those every now and again. So I went online to look at YouTubers who have tried different hair removal creams. I have very coarse hair on my legs, armpits, and the nether regions. I came across this guy who uses this in his sensitive areas. He said that he also had coarse hair and that normally he gets bad ingrown hairs when he shaves down there. I thought, if it's good enough for him, it's good enough for me. So I ordered mine online through Amazon and waited for it to come. When it finally came I ripped open the package, read the directions, and prepped myself for pure pain! I've tried nair down below and I thought my who-he was going to completely burn off! First thing I noticed that I liked is that it was a thicker formula so where I put it is where it stayed. Second thing, is the smell isn't their initially but as it starts burning the hair off, it's not the greatest smell. Most creams don't smell good and I'm okay with that. I first tried it for the minimum 3 minutes… That did nothing! Since I'm not a first time hair cream removal person, I knew to try it for a little bit longer and give it another shot. I waited 24 hours so I didn't have any reactions on my skin and the next day I put it on for about 4 minutes 30 seconds. I checked a small portion before fully removing it and I left it on for another 30 seconds. Apparently this is allowed to stay on for 6 minutes total. When I left it on for 5 minutes, It did amazing! I've been using it on all areas that have hair and it's done a great job for me! I always have ingrown hairs and so far, nothing! I'm going to continue to use this for the next couple months and see if I still feel the same way. I'm pretty happy about this, I also decided to try it on the rear end. It did a great job in that area too! Normally I end up having a rash because of the friction of my butt cheeks lol. All in all unpleasantly surprised with this product and I will continue to use it!emily.t

I am a 75 year old woman and I have trouble raising my arms to groom my hair between cuts. My hair is short and layer cut – almost as short as a man. This worked really well. I was impressed with how it worked to help keep my hair neat and trimmed! The fact that it extends was helpful in getting the back of my hair.me-me

I am a woman who had been going to a barber since 2019, as I wear my hair extremely short, funky, shaved. Unfortunately then there was the coronavirus, so I did not get my hair done for 15 months! Now we have the Delta variant, so I contacted my barber that I was going to put off getting my hair cut for a while. Needless to say, I could tell he was not happy. He did not return my text, which was unprofessional!! I knew I had to do something, so I purchased the Titanium Trimmer; received it yesterday and the batteries were included; and I just used it and it was fabulous! I did it entirely solo! Very easy to use! Very easy cleaning! My hair looks great! So I will no longer get my hair professionally done ever again! I 100% recommend the trimmer!SEXXYLYPPS

I have always had to shave every day–sometimes twice! It seemed like the moment I stepped out of the shower, I already had stubble. On top of that, I have keratosis pilaris, so shaving was very irritating to my bumpy skin. I had wanted to try laser hair removal for a long time, but it's so expensive to treat all the areas–it would be at least $2,000 to treat everything. I figured if this device could even just help reduce the amount of shaving, it would be well worth the price. Since the hair on my legs grew back so quickly, I decided to take the extra time to carefully do individual pulses, especially on my calves. I figured out a really efficient way so that I get full coverage in less than 10 minutes for both legs. The results have been beyond my expectations! Even after the first treatment, my legs stayed stubble-free longer. After each treatment, it just kept getting better and better. I could see patches where there's the cycle of growth that showed me how much growth I would have normally had without shaving. Now I can go for a whole week and still not really feel like I need to shave! I also used it on my armpits and bikini area which always had razor burn. Not anymore–it's truly amazing! As someone with keratosis pilaris, I've never loved my skin and would cover up as much as possible to avoid comments from strangers like "oh, you have a rash!" Nope! That's just my skin–thank you! 🙁 Since kp is a build-up of protein that blocks hair follicles, you can understand why this device would not only help reduce hair, but reduce kp as well!!! I've also used the device with the attachment for my upper lip and after a few treatments I'm no longer plucking! My daughter has kp, too. Although she doesn't care about the hair on her legs so much, she is embarrassed by all the bumps. So I convinced her to try the device and she could immediately tell the difference. She is so excited to continue the treatments! I tried so many products in my teen years to reduce my kp–I wish I would have had this device at her age! I'm so thankful to be able to help her–if you suffer from kp, you understand! If you use this device correctly and consistently, it will absolutely work. My legs have never been smoother. It's so amazing to not have to shave every day, to not have razor burn, to have a huge reduction in my kp, and to have a more even skin tone overall because of the reduced irritation on my skin from shaving. The value and convenience is incredible. I highly, highly recommend this device!!Hillary G.

This was my first experience with IPL, so I was very nervous, but definitely excited. The instructions for the SmoothSkin Pure Fit IPL Hair Removal System were very simple and easy to understand. There are only 3 buttons on the whole machine, so you feel very confident that there's nothing you'll forget to do or do incorrectly. Once you turn the machine on, it's instantly ready to go and you can place it against your skin. The machine automatically determines the best setting strength for your hair color and skin tone, so there's no guess work. You can then choose one of 3 settings with the simple push of a button and you're ready to start! I found the machine to be very quiet and the actual process was somewhat uncomfortable, but it varied each time and depending on what area I was treating. I tried my legs, underarms and bikini area and mainly treated my underarms and bikini areas exclusively. Sometimes I felt the process wasn't painful at all and other times, there was a slight zapping sensation accompanied by a warmth. I don't feel that it wasn't anything that couldn't be tolerated. The process was very fast and each area could be done within seconds to minutes. I have completed a total of 4 weekly treatments so far and each time I've noticed my hair is growing back much slower than it used to. I've also definitely noticed a decrease in the amount of hair I had. I'm very excited to keep using this for several more weeks to see where my results will be then, but I can personally see and feel the difference. If I consider how little time I've actually used this so far (just a few minutes each week) it's really made an impact for me.Littlepinkheart09

The SmoothSkin pure fit IPL hair removal system in black is a real game changer for in home hair removal. It is comes in a very nice boxed presentation in case you want to give it as a gift. I am laughing because would that be an insult to give this to someone, I do not think so if they ask for it as a gift. At any rate, the manufacturer produces and sends with the box contents a very thorough user guide that helps one figure out how to make sure that their skin tone works with the system. There are a couple of different ways to engage the laser light hair removal system. I personally like the button that allows for a continuous triggering of light to fry the hair follicles along the areas that you wish to remove hair from. The thing that I really like this time is that it came with an end cap that really helps target and minimize the light for smaller areas such as over the lip and facial hairs in tighter areas, plus under arm. I want to remind people reading this review that this is hair removal is not only for ladies but also men who have unwanted hair on their backs, their chests, etc. So, this is at least a 6 week process and commitment which also requires maintenance every so many weeks as hair tries to grow back. The user must first remove hair from the areas that are to be treated by either shaving, waxing, or tweezing. That gets the area as smooth as possible and then by doing a weekly treatment with the IPL, you gradually kill the hair follicle and thus, stop hair growth. However, those pesky follicles can come back so that is why a maintenance program is recommended. Clearly, it will not be a s much or as aggressive hair growth as in the beginning of the process, but there will be some regrowth and you tackle that as is necessary. I definitely love this model with the new end cap that allows you to target stubborn and smaller areas.KansasMeddlingMom

I used this product with my wife. We have been using the SmoothSkin Pure Mini once a week for about 4 weeks now as the directions instructed. The manual says that you can do a full body treatment in as little as 10 minutes, but it took 10 to 15 minutes to do both full legs. The product has 2 settings, regular and sensitive, the difference is the brightness/strength of the light flash. There is an internal fan because the bright light does produce heat, it sounds like a quiet hair dryer. It is very easy to use, just put the window side flush against your skin and push the button (either regular or sensitive) and it will emit a bright flash against your skin. There is a sensor that detects if the window is completely flush against the skin and if it isn’t it will not flash. For areas where it is not flat skin (ex: knees) there is a magnetic attachment that fits over the window that makes the window area smaller allowing for the product to be flush against the skin and flash. There was no discomfort, redness or irritation when using the product. After about 10 minutes of use the flashes do get warmer and warmer which can cause discomfort, I just waited a minute or two for it to cool off a little and continued the treatment. We used the sensitive setting on the inside of the thighs and on the back of the knee area since these are more sensitive areas and the flashes on the regular setting were a little hot. My wife has light skin and light hair on her legs and the instructions say it works best on darker hair, so she was a little skeptical on whether this would work for her. It wasn’t until after her second treatment (week 2) that she noticed a change in the growth of hair on the treated area compared to the non-treated tattooed area. The hair was not growing back as quickly in the treated areas because it was shorter than the tattooed area hair. I noticed that some of the thicker hairs were not coming as thick and a little squirrely (not straight) which made me think the treatment was affecting the hair follicles. We will continue using this product and doing the weekly treatments for the full 12 weeks and I will update this review when the treatment is done.PaulieB1

Home IPL devices for hair removal can really be hit or miss. Sometimes they work great, but suffer from slow speed or the bulbs don't last very long. Other models just don't work very well at all. With the Smoothskin Mini those problems don't see to be an issue at all and the results are great. The device itself is incredibly compact, making it very easy to manuveur and get it angled exactly how you need it to get both large and small areas of skin. It's comfortable to hold and overall the design supports an easy use. The Mini has several really amazing features that help make the entire process effortless. The first being the skin contact sensor that measures your skin tone before each light pulse, which makes sure you are using the strongest but safest light pulse for each pulse. It also sports several intensity and comfort settings to make sure that you have all the control and aren't in pain while using the device. All of this with a very quick firing light makes using the Mini effortless and incredibly quick compared to previous IPL devices I've used. The results are really great. After about 6 weeks I've seen really noticable results and because it's so easy to use is one reason I think the results will last. I don't dread using it and don't have to commit an hour to a treatment so continual use will be no problem. As far as home IPL devices go, this one is easy to use and all the features give great results that seem to be lasting.Clshipp91

Smoothskin Mini IPL hair remover does what it says. Instructions are clear and easy to understand. Comes with 2 comfort modes and three intensity levels for sensitive areas and more stubborn thicker hair and an attachment for precision it comes in handy for smaller spots. It has an automatic detection for skin tone so it measure what light level is needed. I am covered in tattoos so I did try it first on a small part of a leg tattoo that could easy be fixed if it damaged the color of it but had no issues using it on them. I love the compact size but I do wish it was wireless so I could use it anywhere in a more convenient comfortable spot in my house rather then plugged in the cord is long enough but that’s just me prefer cordless. I started with my armpits and bikini area once a week as directed those spots have the thicker hair on my body I noticed the difference of less hair growth in about 3 weeks but feel like if you had more thick corse hair it will take longer, I’ve shaved my armpits less often the hair also that grows back is thinner I hope eventually I won’t have to shave at all yay! I did my legs which the hair is very thin it takes about maybe 15-20 mins to do both legs entirely I’ve seen the difference with hair growth much more in a few weeks some spots hair has not grown back at all I do rub vitamin E oil on my legs and other areas on my body about 30 mins after to soothe my skin although it’s nothing like waxing no skin irritation at all. I’ve been very pleased with the Smoothskin brand. I high recommend if you don’t want to keep paying to go have it done or for in between sessions.pinkbat

I previously used one of these products. I had it for several years. It just stopped working. I decided to purchase another one. It is reasonably priced. I haven't used it much, but I will when I need to. It's your choice whether to purchase this product or not. It worked good for me.BB&B Customer

This one is just o.k. It's pretty noisy, and the edges at the ends of the razor stick up, rather than being even with the cutting area. So I have to press down more on my skin for it to work. Have only used it a few times, so durability is an unknown. Probably would not buy again. (The light seems like an unnecessary gimmick.)BB&B Customer

I bought this product to use on my facial hair and eyebrows. I have a very hard time trimming my hairs with this device. The blade I guess you can call it barely even touches my hairs. Secondly, if it does grasp a hair it doesn't seem to shave the whole hair off but instead mostly trims it in half. I have to go over areas multiple times to remove my hairs which causes irritation bc I have sensitive skin. And I do not recommend this product to trim or shape eyebrows.Roxy

Works for my needs, but unfortunately it doesn’t work for very long. 1st one purchased lasted about 6mos. 2nd one purchased lasted about 1 month. Poor construction I am guessing. Always seams to be something with its internal wiring. I use it to trim my eyebrows, so use it about 3- per month. I’m guessing it should last longer….not going to spend another $10bucks. Looking at other products nowTrish Shannon

Truthfully, it works best for nose hairs. I had bought the 'flawless' model for the fine hairs around my lips & jawline & it is great – 5 stars. But it isn't shaped to get at nose hairs. This one is, so I got it, too. Both have become an easy part of my routine. (I dealt with the depilatory creams so long & dreaded using them. Very happy to toss those.) Now, every few days I take (literally) about 1 minute to go over any area that needs attention. Not only is the hair not growing back thicker, it's also not growing back as fast. That was a nice surprise. I have one for the master bath & one for the guest bath, which will go into my travel bag as needed.Vikki

I have purchased at least four of these to share with family and friends. It has become an awful, cheap product. Arrived very late without some attachments and trims nothing!!! I threw it away. Do not waste your moneyEmily

✨ Flawless Hair Remover ✨ I've been actively using this product for a few years now and I’ll probably never stop… it's just THAT good 👏🏼 The Flawless Women's painless hair remover is simple to use: remove the cap, slide the switch on and gently press the head of the unit flat against your skin. Continue making small circular motions to remove any unwanted hair. Best part, it DOES NOT hurt and does a great job removing the hair quickly. Can we say, LIFE SAVER? 💯🙌🏼 How does it not hurt you may be wondering? Well, this product uses a butterfly technology that erases hair by microscopically paring it down through a spinning head. It stores that hair under the 18 karat gold-plated head that you can empty out once full. Since I've been using it for a long time, I only use it on my neck (sometimes I get tiny hairs) and my mustache. My best tip for anyone trying it out is to always make sure you clean it after every use. I notice when I don't or if the area that I am working on isn't clean I'll break out. Nothing crazy but it has happened and I want to give you a friendly heads up! My flawless is older, and recently they have came out with a new updated one that is much better I’m sure 😊 ⭐️Product Rating: 4/5taylor.g

This is my second time buying this product after my first one died on me after 4 years of use. I absolutely love this product. It is a wholleee staple in my life. I grow facial hair on my whole face (thanks to my hispanic father) and this right here gets rid of that in 2 seconds. The hair on my face will generally start to grow back around 2 weeks or so later before I take another two seconds to rid of it. No pain (seriously.ZERO PAIN) The light is useful for seeing. You wont get nicked with this. The price is around $17-19.99 depending on where you go (thats a great price for magnificent quality). It’s gentle on the skin (I have sensitive skin). If you feel like it’s not working like it used to, change the battery. I think in the 4 years of owning my first one, i changed the battery maybe 3 times. I highly recommend this product. I don’t only recommend it, i am TELLING you to buy it. If you needed a sign, this is the sign. Side comment: please take note that the new version has the word “flawless” on the side. The old version works just as fine but I bought the new version this time for the same price. So ya might as well go with the new version. Extra side note: the newer one is also double ringed for quicker hair removal. The back of the box indicates the double ring (if youre looking for the newer one)alondra.m

So I've bought two of these in the past year, (the flawless white, then the blue flawless pro) and now I'm having to potentially buy a third one because no matter how long I charge it, clean it, it just straightup stops working after a few months. It'll glitch a lot and then just stop working entirely. BUT the reason that irritates me so much is because when it's working it works great!! It is the best product I have found for my aggravating peach fuzz, as my skin is sensitive to anything else. You don't feel a thing, it really gets it all, you just have to be patient and sometimes go over a spot several times. But it will take care of all those annoying hairs eventually. Just wish it was more durable, hence I take away a star. seems like a waste of plastic to have to replace it constantly. Gonna look for something better first.Gurltime

My friend since pandemic. During pandemic when most salons were closed and that's when Flawless Hair became my friend. No pain no gain they say but this product is no pain but gain only. Perfect for facial hair and works like a champ. This is not an epilator so it doesn't hurt and gently removes your facial hair. I love that removes hair in a extremely gentle way. I have highly sensitive skin and never any irritation from using Flawless. I highly recommend this product to all the ladies.sana.a

I want to love all of the manscaped so bad. What I do love, is the blade and how it does not Knick or cut you. I’m a woman, I use it and my husband uses it and we both like that feature.
That is the only reason why it’s getting 1 star and not 5.

What is REALLY lame about the rest of it is the battery life and speed/ability to cut through course hair. It takes about 5+ hours to charge, and once it is charged you have about 2 mins of usage until the motor slows down and your battery life light is back to red. And yes I did actually time it all. SUPER LAME!!

I love the idea about not getting cut, it being water resistant, easy to use and it not being large but it just doesn’t cut it to be all it’s hyped to be.J Shall

Thing worked fine for a while, until it sliced my coin purse open. The “skinsafe” cutting head sliced me open like a razor knife. Wrote to customer service about it, their response was to offer a replacement head. Thanks but no thanks.
Then my trimmer became possessed. It would turn itself on and off randomly. It woke me up one night buzzing away after it had jumped off the counter onto the tile floor. I turned it off only to have it turn back on again seconds later. Tried plugging it into the charger, no dice. Still turned itself on. So I took the head off it and left it in the sink bowl so it couldn’t damage anything else.
Customer service offered a free replacement. I accepted and gave my mailing address. They sent me a replacement CUTTING HEAD. FOR THE TRIMMER I CANT EVEN USE ANYMORE.
they don’t care about their customers. At allMatthew Haley

It stopped working after less than 15 uses. I use it as intended, but also on my head if my fuzz gets to long for a Bic. First of all, I think a handheld Bic is safer, iv cut myself dozens of with this, and second it broke after a dozen of so uses. It is supposed to under warranty, but when I emailed I said if it's not covered under warranty and this is the quality of product I can expect, I wish to cancel all subscriptions. They canceled all subscriptions. Just shows that they don't even stand behind their own product.michael walker

Cost was just great on this purchase and the reason for purchasing two, one for myself and one for my son! I have experienced the single head of the Bliss for a while and when I saw the cost of the double head, thought I couldn't miss, plus I needed a birthday gift for him! The double head is much better and the recharging capability is absolutely fabulous! Saves switching batteries like I have had to do often on the single head. A shave is close, comfortable and relatively quick! Can't miss with this model. Thanks Walmart!Bill

I purchased this shaver 07/09/2022. i took it home and started charging it, I couldn't wait to try it out so I used it in cord mode. I have tried the Mach 5 and a Braun version. While the Mach 5 produces a good close shave, it takes me 20 to 30 minutes of shaving to achieve that. Plus I have to use a lubricant while shaving to achieve the best shave. I used this new Babyliss shaver with no lubricant on my head and it literally took less than 3 minutes and it's the best shave I've had. it's nice and rugged metal, all others I have used have been plastic. It has definitely been the cheapest shaver I have tried. I was skeptical from reading some of the reviews, I do have more of a coarse hair which one of the reviews mentions getting results from. If you have coarse hair and want a great shave, I totally recommend this shaver! I'm not saying it won't do fine hair, I am just not a good test for that.Chris M.

Received this for free from Influenster in exchange for my honest review. First of all the box for this one looks so nice! Packaging was down really well and with care. This is my first time I try an electronic shaver my self. First off love the gold color on it mm it was pretty smooth easy to use honestly. I didn’t shaved for a few days cause I wanted to get the full effect of this product and it work really well. Highly recommend now I see why barbers really use these. They are smooth and no pain what so ever!jose.c

This was not exactly what I thought I was ordering for him, but he is getting used to it and now he really likes it. Says the battery is lasting a long time, many times being used and still strong. It is small and light weight, so at first it seemed "dinky" but it does a very nice job of keeping his beard at that "day-old" look that I like for him. Has not tried the other attachments for orifice trimming.amaze_my_siblings

I have a drawer with three of these that don't work. They were each great when first bought and used, but the third or fourth time it was switched on there was nothing. I changed the battery – nothing. I tried reversing the polarity of the battery installation – nothing. I tried a third battery properly installed – nothing. I considered thee first two failing to be flukes and bought a third. Again, it was great for a few uses, then nothing. Save yourself the grief.BBB CustomerRW

It's a bit messy. BUT I have thick leg hair. Like thick. When I do soft or hard wax. I have to go over 2-3x times for all my hair to remove. But with this was it was just one swipe. Like twice that happen 2 times. I was so impressed. I did let it sit in hot water for a bit. But this is amazing!! Once you really know how to use it. And the wax that stayed on the cotton can be used again and again! Best purchase. It wasn't painful at all!!Ihtzy

In my 30's I decided I needed rid myself of dark hair on arms. two applications and product worked great. I expected it would grow back. 55 years old now and never had a hair issue on my arms. Smooth as a babies bottom. I never tried warming it up and just spread it on thick! Was sticky but guess that is why it grabbed those hairs so well.Marie

I have shaved, waxed and epililiated for many years. However I had never used Nads. On a whim I tried on my legs, bikini line and armpits. I have thick, dense, dark hair with fast regrowth. The biggest shock to me was how comfortable this is to use! The gel is not like wax that rips hair and skin, instead it only rips out the hair and is gentle on skin! The cotton strips are washable and reusable, so I can collect more with each purchase to aid in doing larger surface areas (I find once I use a strip to remove hair it doesn't work on the next area, so I have to use a new strip for every section of hair). Also love than any stickiness or mess is easily removed with water. Also a tip: place in a shallow bowl of warm water to help wax spread if the temp is cold in your house and gel is too solid!Jess

5/5 Out of the shower Actually quite satisfying watching all the hairs fall off my legs. Quite flawless performance when it comes to out of the shower experience. This CUTS, mows down every single hair you can see. 1/5 In the shower The hair will stick to your body and that will make it harder to actually shave those hairs. Ended up nicking my armpit multiple times with this too. 3/5 For noise This is loud, like you can hear it from a room and maybe 2 rooms away. Everyone in the house will know you're shaving yourself. 4/5 Shaving length It's like 1mm of hair left on the legs so it's not perfect but it's still amazing for an electric shaver. Overall 3/5 I would use this more often but it's both noisy and hard to use in the shower. Other than those 2 gripes, it performs well everywhere else. I was shaving in the shower for 30 minutes and another 10 minutes out of the shower, it still has juice left to use. The shaving performance is practically unparalleled compared to other shavers that I have used before. Even though I rated this a 3/5 I'd still recommend it to a friend, EASY.JLam

I recently got the Philips Norelco Bodygroom, a two in one trimmer and shaver. It must be said, up front, that this is a ***body*** hair trimmer and shaver… intended for your back, shoulders, chest, abs, underarm, arms, groin and legs. OOB, you get the two in one body hair trimmer/shaver, a cleaning brush, a proprietary charger, instructions, and a registration pamphlet. I am a hairy guy. Not quite sasquatch level, but not too far off, at least according to my wife. I have coarse hair also. It takes a pretty powerful shaver/trimmer to tame what I have going on. The short version is that the Philips Norelco Bodygroom has what it takes to get the job done, but please read on. You get a four-way contouring/pivoting shaver that first cuts your hair (with pre-cut blades on either side of the foil) and then foil shaves it down. I typically trim my chest, etc. with an adjustable trimmer head to a little over a 1/4 inch. But, for the purpose of this review, I charged the bodygroom (the green LED blinked while charging and turned solid green when done) and tried the foil shaver on the upper portion of my chest, to give the area shape. It did a great job. Close, smooth, exact… and no nicks. Note that you do not need to put a lot of pressure on the Bodygroom as you move it across your body. The way that the housing is ergonomically shaped (with a non-slip housing) is perfectly positioned to give you the right amount of pressure and surface drag. And, this was a dry shave. Yes, there was some irritation as a result of the dry shave, but that’s to be expected… and the irritation went away pretty quickly. For the remainder of my body hair, I used the adjustable trimmer head. The trimmer head offers 5 trim lengths, ranging from 1/8” (3mm) to 7/16” (11mm). It includes a guard that is easy to adjust with one finger, as well as self-sharpening blades. I had my wife take care of my back (my first time doing that, for which she was very happy). In the shower, shower off, I took care of my arm pits, chest, and other areas. There were instances where the hair “clogged” the trimmer guard, but I haven’t had a trimmer guard yet where that didn’t happen. Turn it over, shake it off, keep soldiering through. Easy enough. After cleaning up the shag carpet on the shower floor, so as not to block up my drain, I then showered and, with the water running (and given the Bodygroom is “showerproof”/water-resistant – but don’t submerge it (e.g., in a bathtub or sink), of course), took another go. At no point (dry or wet) was there an instance when there was a pinch or pull due to the trimmer blades. The self-sharpening trimmer blade was key here. My one gripe about the use of the Bodygroom was that there were instances where I could feel “drag” from the trimmer guard across more sensitive areas. It wasn’t unbearable. And, after a little I was able to learn how to maneuver to avoid the drag. But, this isn’t my first rodeo with body hair trimmers. Yet, this was the first guard with which I experienced the issue. After all was said and done, I dried the Bodygroomer, removed the trimmer guard, popped off the blade head, and cleaned the Bodygroom using the included brush. Super easy. According to the specs, the lithium ion battery in the Bodygroomer takes an hour to charge and offers 80 minutes of use. After a full charge, I used it for about 40 minutes total. It didn’t bog down once. I did recharge it before storing it and will likely charge it again before use, as I tend to go a little bit between “grooming” sessions. Other than keeping this thing clean, there’s no other maintenance. No oiling, no blade sharpening… nothing. Also, Philips Norelco offers a 5-year warranty. The manufacturer does make replacement shaving foil heads and shaving foil head cleaning spray, so just how long the foil head will last remains to be seen. A few minor bones to pick. You cannot use this device while you are charging it – but, given you’re likely to use it in the shower, with the shower running… not being able to charge it while using it is likely a good thing. In addition, I wish it came with a case that held the Bodygroom, the charger, and the brush. I’ll likely end up throwing it in an oversized zipper sandwich bag but a travel bag would’ve been a very solid addition. So, worth buying? Absolutely. For the reasons provided above, the Philips Norelco Bodygroom is a solid four star purchase and worth every penny. It’s ergonomic, easy to handle, provides two cutting surfaces (a foil shaver with pre-cutting blades and an easy to clean trimmer with self-sharpening blades and a 5-position adjustable guard), and thanks to those cutting surfaces gives you the versatility needed to shave your back, shoulders, chest, abs, underarm, arms, groin and legs. It holds a great charge and has enough power to make short work (see what I did there) of coarse body hair with zero problems. I wish it came with a travel bag, but c’est la vie. Gents, give this one a shot. You and your DetailzGuy

It has been years since I used a Hair product. I hated the smell and had concerns about chemicals I was applying to my skin. I decided to try again as I have sensitive skin. I went with this particular product so I wouldn't have to use my hands and hoping Aloe in this product would help with any sensitivity that may occur. I tested an area just like the directions said to do and found I needed to apply a little more than 3 minutes but my skin was not irritated. I put the came on while I let it sit a little longer and when I pulled of the cap some of the hair splattered onto my floor. Just to be safe I currently have the cap off so this won't happen again when I use it. I followed the directions again for applying and taking off hair and it worked perfectly. There were some areas that were missed somehow and applied to that area. Glad the smell wasn't too strong. The biggest thing I noticed after use is that my hair very noticeably started to grow back two days after. Just use to seeing it appear a couple of days after I shave. For that reason I would not purchase this particular product again. Need something where I don't have to apply every day.WorkPants

This product good on skin. The smell is not the strong and has a good scent. The package is good and accessible. I feels good on skin. I can use it for personal care. The quality and size good. The benefit is it saves time. The composition is nice. TheiHerb Customer

Back in the 1970s I was a teenager and Nair was THE ONLY THING that we used for hairy teenage legs. The stuff stank! My friend once shmeared some of it on her legs and then touched her closed eye by mistake and didn't have eyelashes or her right eyebrow for a whole month. So, I guess the stuff works. Flash forward to 2022 and I see this stuff on sale here at iHerb and I thought to myself, "Hey, it's been 50 years, they must have done something to make it smell better." They haven't. But it still works beautifully. And you know what, you have to have it on for 3 to 5 minutes, no longer than 10. I can live through that for the clear, hairless skin I want. And they did improve the recipe, because while it still stinks, it's kinder on the skin than it used to be. Would I buy again? Absolutely!iHerb Customer

This is NOT a "one stroke, hair be gone" product. You may have to go over the area a few times to get the hair but it does work. Stay in the direction of the hair growth and go slowly. I noticed that going slowly over the area helped to get hold of the hair better. Make sure your brows are clean and dry before using. I have oily skin so cleaning my brows beforehand helped alot. It does get warm but not hot to the touch. It is a little hard to pull apart to put the battery. The light is very helpful. It is very gentle on the skin. Overall it is a good product and I would definitely recommend it.Rita

I bought this one over another one I was looking at because I saw this was the Flawless brand and I had been recommended by someone to get that brand. i could tell that it was different after opening my package. its made of cheap materials. i decided to try it anyways because sometimes knock offs can suprise you. i was not suprised. it barely took of any of my daughters eyebrow hair. i definitely do not recommend this product.Tricia

I started with the flawless finishing touch for my face. Now after a few years I've decided to try their brow product. Now, is it easy to use, yes, will it miss some stragglers on your brows, yes why five stars then because it is all in how you hold the equipment to get it to work. I love this. Our hair doesn't always grown in the direction we think so just keep that in mind. I prefer this over plucking and over a brow wax. If I'm using a retinol I don't have to worry with this product but you will with a wax. It is about convenience and willingness to get the product to do what it should. I haven't had too many missed hairs. It gets in between my eye brows just fine. I enjoy the painless removal. So for me five stars all the way been using it a year now.angela.j

I have other DermaFlash devices that I love but unfortunately this one unfortunately falls way below average! It is made so cheaply that I was extremely disappointed when I opened it, inserted, the battery, and used it! I could not in good conscience recommend this product! Not only should the plastic have been much more formidable, but the vibration should have been a bit stronger! The roller ball is useless as it is…had it had some vibration it would help bring down any swelling as this product claims to for puffy eyes! I don’t even know if I will trouble myself to send it back but instead toss it! That is how disappointed I am! I had really hoped for an excellent review but I cannot!DrTina

This is great for reaching anywhere you are nervous about using the larger Dermaflash wand and want precision, like near your eyebrows. I will say that the razor on the end is a little more loosely fitted than on the larger wand. I thought about returning for another due to this because it might present a safety issue, but the razor seems to stay put. It can be popped out with some light finger pressure though without pushing the eject button. So I deduct a star for this.JJ

I was excited to try out the Dermaflash Mini for the peach fuzz removal and the de-puffing rollerball. The rollerball is really nice and I noticed my under eye bags lessen after using it a minute. I’m not sure how long the de-puffing lasts, but it really feels nice and relaxing to use the rollerball all over my face. As far as the de-fuzzing goes, the razor removes peach fuzz but not as much peach fuzz as disposable razors do. It was a little disappointing to read the razors are only supposed to be used once so that adds an extra cost if you were to use this product more than 3 times (it comes with 3 blades). I had to use a disposable razor to finish the peach fuzz removal. I really like how small the product is and I will probably bring it with me when traveling for any peach fuzz touchups, though. The packaging, branding, and color of the product was very on point!SBellabella

I would give it a 8! The pros are…. You never have to worry about cutting yourself. Your hair also does not grow back as fast as if you would shave or wax. I like it because I can bring it in my purse with me if I'm going somewhere and we realized that I might need it row quick and I can go right into the ladies Room and fix a spot that I missed That's one of the main things I liked about it. I feel like I am always in a hurry so I forget to do things or I forget to shave 1 leg and not the other lol. The only cons that I have, are You always have to make sure that the batteries in it are a good brand. It doesn't work as well if you use cheaper batteries. Which that's OK with me however I don't think it should matter what batteries are in it I think it should just work the same. And the other con that I have, is that I had a hard time cleaning it. At least for the 1st time… there several different things you have to take apart and clean and put back together so it's kind of like a puzzle lol but once you do it once or twice then you'll know how to do it. I ended up buying all 3! the 1 for my legs the one for a facial hair and the 1 for my eyebrows. And I will say, that the 1 for the eyebrows is absolutely my favorite. I would give that a 9.25 and the facial hair flawless remover, I would give about a 9. It's definitely worth the money! However, there are a lot of coupons out there were you can get that for 30 or 40% off with their selling it for and that's how I bought my 1st 1. Let me know if you have any other questions and if you can't find a coupon code just message me back and I will find 1 for you!

I LOVE THIS RAZOR. IT IS SO EASY TO USE AND DOES A WONDERFUL JOB. I SEE A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT STUBBLE BEING LEFT BEHIND. IF YOU HOLD YOUR SKIN TIGHT, IT WILL GIVE YOU A CLOSER SHAVE. I LIKE TO WATCH TV WHILE I SHAVE MY LEGS AND THIS RAZOR MAKES THIS SO EASY TO DO. PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES CAN APPRECIATE THE EASE OF USE WITH THIS RAZOR. BACK TO THE STUBBLE PROBLEM, REMEMBER LADIES, THIS IS NOT A BLADE RAZOR AND NO ELECTRIC RAZOR WILL GIVE THAT CLOSE SHAVE AS THE BLADE AND SHAVING CREAM DOES. FOR ME, I APPRECIATE THE MAKERS OF THIS RAZOR AND THE PRICE THAT LTD OFFERS IT FOR. BE HONEST WITH YOURSELF, HAD YOU RATHER SHAVE IN THE TUB OR SHOWER OR LIE DOWN ON YOUR BED AND SHAVE YOUR LEGS WHILE WATCHING YOUR FAVORITE TV PROGRAM. EVEN IF YOU HAVE TO SHAVE EVERYDAY TO GET A CLOSER SHAVE, SO WHAT! IT ONLY TAKES A FEW MINUTES TO SHAVE. STOP YOUR COMPLAINING AND ENJOY THE EASE OF USING THIS WONDERFUL PRODUCT!NANA ET

Should have paid more attention to previous reviews/shoppers. I purchased this item as a gift for my aunt. She loved her previous Finishing Touch Flawless Legs Hair Remover…it just wore out after 5-6 years of use. I should have known; too good to be true! It's a knock-off/rip-off!! NOT as pictured/described. DO NOT purchase. Does not include all advertised parts either. Fortunately, she was able to use the previous cord/charger! NOISY and does not shave as well as the true Finishing Touch product. Buyer Beware!! Walmart should remove their listing!!1973Hokie

This precision trimmer comes in cute styles and colors not just bland looking like usual tools. I really like these precision trimmers. They do cut perfectly how you want it to. I use them to fix up my hair down there and they make it much easier to not overdue it but yet still cut off plenty.eva.h

This has to be the best trimmer I've had! Spent weeks researching for a good trimmer and reading reviews. My old one was great so I wanted to ensure I got another good one. I came to this one and again really liked the style and size. I was all set to purchase but did find myself put off by some of the comments so put it off again for a couple more days. Got to the point where I had to have one regardless and bought it. Glad I did. It's actually quite light. Charges better than I was lead to believe. Comfortable to hold in the hand and trims excellently.paije.t

It’s a good product, however, I’d like the blade to be a bit bigger, but it does its job especially during Summer. It removes the hair perfectly and it’s very easy to use and fast to clean. You can wash it with water so it’s hygienically safe.antonella.c

I WOULD be leaving 5 stars on this, because I absolutely loved my Manscaped trimmer. Until I bought TWO and both broke. Spent around $200 now. First time, bought and loved it. I used it till I died. Then I went to charge it and it lit up for a while, came back and whole thing was dead. I was like damn okay maybe I over charged it or got water in it on accident. Bought a new one. When it died this time I was EXTRA careful. I let it sit out for two days to dry before charging. I only let it charge for 20 minutes at a time. SAME THING HAPPENED. Neither charger nor device will work, on either set now and I’m so bummed and frustrated that I wasted all this money.Hannah McCoy

Have used this for almost a year now and really love it. The battery life is super long. The LED light is an essential, you know downstairs isn't always well lit. Waterproof is perfection, why get hair on your floor when you can let it go down the drain. The guards are essential, virtually impossible to cut yourself with one in place. It fits my hand perfectly and is surprisingly lightweight. The charger stand (wireless charging) uses a standard USB-C connector, so no worries if you lose the adapter included. Charging is fast and easy, The concept of a separate trimmer for upstairs beard and another for downstairs just makes too much sense. So if you are going for smooth look – the Manscaped razor is fantastic and works perfectly. However, unless the hair is about 1/4 inch or less, the razor plugs up really fast. The mower takes care of that. Pre-trim with the mower, then hit it with the razor. Overall, this thing is a great tool, designed for a very specific purpose.BinkyBarns

The lawn mower 4.0 touts ceramic skin safe blades that don’t cut or knick the skin. Completely false claim. Every single time I trim downstairs I get cut multiple times. The trimmer DOES NOT trim as close to the skin as they claim. A $20 Norelco trimmer actually trims closer to the skin. I can use the lawn mower & follow up with the Norelco & still trim shorter than the lawn mower by itself. Your trim area has to be silky smooth before u use this lawn mower or it will catch the skin every time without fail & cut you. Every time. Manscaped products are amazing for what they’re designed for. The lawn mower is a nice trimmer. It just doesn’t trim as close as they claim & it will cut your skin. Their claims on their website are just a sales pitch bullshit claim. They know it doesn’t trim to the skin. They know the damn thing will cut you. They know this & they care nothing about it. Just shut your mouth, spend $100 on the trimmer & you will believe what we tell you. I’d provide pics if they weren’t pics of downstairs. I have 3 cuts right now & still can’t get close to the skin. Thanx man scape for making a good trimmer. Thanx manscape for your bullshit claims!Eric Renegar
