I just realized I haven't written any feedback about my experience with the popular EpiStick. I just recently put it up on my blog sale, thank you Khris for buying it, and I hope it works for you! =]
I bought mine for $1.29 from this ebay seller.
I heard sooo many good things about the EpiStick, but I've come to find out that maybe it just isn't for me, personally. I followed the directions for use just like I watched in the video and read in other instructions. But for whatever reason, it barely yanks out ANY of my hairs. The most I've gotten out at a time is maybe... 3. And it's painful ;_; I know I sound like such a pussy, but I'd much rather tweeze the stray hairs -_-;
I've tried it allll over my face, multiple times. Upper lip, ABOVE eyebrows, along my jawline, forehead... I think maybe it's because the hair I have on my face is very fine.... So it doesn't grip it very well?
You are suppose to bend it into an inverted U-shape and then twist the handles in opposite directions. I've tried bending it into a tight U shape, wide U shape, using small twisting motions... and twisting quote vigorously. Nothing I do yanks out much, but I still get that sharp, pinching sensation like it is. But it isn't. Regular 'ol tweezing is a lot faster and less ouchie for me.
Would I repurchase/reccommend?
I personally would not repurchase but I've heard so many rave reviews about it. So I would say it is definitely worth a shot at trying, especially because it is so inexpensive!
