R.E.M SpringFacial Hair Remover - The Original Hair Removal Spring [Design Patent]. Removes Hair from Upper Lip, Chin, Cheeks and Neck. 100% Stainless Steel

Wish I had this particular device decades ago! The money I could have saved in waxing!Now that I am in my early 60s, hair grows overnight on my face.Cons:1. Not painful "to me" but I have been using epililator devises for legs and threading my brows forever. Maybe use an ice pack the areas prior to use if you find it uncomfortable.2. You don't yourself and can take 5-10 minutes until you get the swing and use it for maintenance.3. There is a learning curve... don't give up! See #10 belowPros:1. ONE-TIME buy! No more waxing or threading costs2. EASY, EASY, EASY... just play around to get the hang of it. Perhaps YouTube it?3. Kind of fun4. Quick and maintenance is super fast5. Gets even FINE hairs!6. Growth of hair slows down over time.7. Can do it anywhere or anytime that you have access to BOTH hands.8. No need for mirror! As you move along.the surfaces, you'll know exactly when there are no more hairs to pull....9. If you find it uncomfortable, know that it gets less uncomfortable over time because the hairs become smaller (for me and others I know)10. The design of this particular one makes it superior to others I've tried and gave up on. No pressure needed .. learn to lay it flat and twirl by using the smooth tapered ends to do the work for you!

I'm at the age where my hormones are changing. Unfortunately, they decided to do it during Covid... when I was wearing a mask everywhere. That's when I notice..... uh oh!!! .... I'm starting to raise a mustache! Not good at all! Thank goodness I was wearing a mask! But that came to an end and here I was with a very light-colored mustache. It was terrible! I was so embarrassed! So, I waxed it. Ouch! Not to mention that my face was red where I waxed it for a couple of days. Makeup didn't cover the redness. In fact, made my upper lip even more noticeable and people would ask what was wrong with my face. So embarrassing. It was better just to have this blonde mustache.I looked at lots of gadgets trying to figure out what would work best. I had used an electric epilator in the past on my legs and the results were terrible. I honestly didn't want to go through that again, especially with my face. I saw this little gadget and figured it wouldn't work. It was a spring. What was so special about it? I was just skeptical.More time passes. I was just miserable and decided to just be "hairy". Then, without much notice, I was invited someplace where I knew I'd see lots of people from my past. I couldn't bear the thought of the mustache. So I shaved it. I looked great! But two days later, stubble. Man stubble! Eeeek! I should have just left it alone in the first place. But I couldn't stand it anymore and refused to shave again. So back to looking at this gadget again. What the heck.... it was only $20 so I bought it. When I got it, of course, just like me, I didn't read the directions to see how to properly use it, I mean, how hard could it be? It was a simple spring. And it didn't work. Oh well.But then, I got an email the next day from the company thanking me for the purchase and they also told me to watch the video that was recommended with the product (which I didn't do). I did exactly what the email told me to do. It was so simple!!!! I felt stupid for not watching the video instructions. Within 5 minutes, the mustache was gone. I mean, even the tiniest little hairs. GONE!!! There was a little sting, but I was expecting that, it wasn't really that bad at all. The mustache hasn't returned, and neither has the stubble. I just use this little gadget for about a minute just in case, but there's nothing! All gone, root and all! I know it will slowly return but I'm not worried. BTW, there was no redness afterwords either. A brilliant little gadget, very easy to use. But I do highly recommend that you watch the video, especially if you are a skeptic.... like me.I see online that there are many types to choose from, most have some sort of plastic ends or handles, I'm not a big fan of plastic, but this one - I know - will hold up for a long time, its stainless steel, which I think it a big plus. It will not lose its shape or effectiveness. I definitely recommend this to anyone who is reading this. If I could give it more stars, I would. This has helped me regain much of my confidence when I have to go out into the real world. I'm not at all self-conscious anymore and I think I look pretty good again! My face is soft and smooth and hair free!

I've been shaving my chin and neck (under the chin, not the whole neck) for close to 30 years. I hate it because I don't like waking up w/stubble, especially if I'm visiting someone or have my own visitors who see me before I shower. I saw this online after searching for a solution and decided to try it due to the good reviews. It's a simple piece of equipment and I could see just by looking at it how it works and for $20 def worth a try. So. The first night I received it I gave it a go and THOUGHT it was working. I told my daughter it felt like little static shocks, no big deal. I sat in front of the mirror for about an hour using it, realizing at the end of that hour I really was just learning HOW to use it and OMG, when I was using it correctly boy did it hurt! Especially on the chin, for those thick and plentiful hairs that I've been keeping shaved for 30 years. However since I had started this torturous procedure I was committed and kept going. After about 40 minutes of getting hairs I stopped, realizing that by no means was I done. After about 10 minutes in the process of painfulness the pain subsided, or rather my chin was just super numb by that time. The next night, now having a good idea of how this device worked, I took another shot. Once you get the hang of it, and it does take a while, it works well (in that it grabs a multitude of hair at the same time). Again pain until numb. About an hour later I stopped, realizing that I got SO many more hairs but not all of them. Yikes. The next day I finished up and boy oh boy was my chin/neck smooth. The third day of pulling wasn't as painful and I'm not sure if my chin was just used to it or more than likely, the stubborn/hard to pull hairs were gone so the hairs that were left were easier to pull? I did notice that some hairs don't come out the first time they get pulled, and I would have to go over the same spot over and over, finally pulling the entirety of the hair out, so for me it wasn't a quick answer nor was it painless, however I woke up this morning with NO stubble. I sent a photo of the contraption to my sister and she replied that she's been using an epilator (electric one) for years which sounds a LOT easier. BUT, since i've been through the initial pain and my chin/neck is hair free i'm going to keep it up w/this spring and see how it goes. 4 stars, taking one off for pain and the fact that rolling over and pulling (painfully) a hair doesn't actually always pull it out, so sometimes ONE hair can cause a multitude of pains. But it worked.UPDATE: I ended up returning this and buying a cordless epilator. What a difference. Didn’t realize how wonderful The cordless epilator! I feel silly for not trying it first and skipping is torture device. The epilator pulls out hairs completely, but works like a razor in that one swipe over your hairs and they’re pretty much gone.

Works super well. I purchased one about a year ago, and like it so much I wanted one for my travel bag. It gets thicker dark hairs fairly well, but really shines with removal of annoying fine hairs that are hard to see.
