Any thoughts on No No hair removal sold on HSN right now?

@Lovevienna , just fyi, there is a thread in the Today's Special forum about this as well. 

I've used it in the past.  It was a no, no for me.

Save your money and look for a Finishing Touch Flawless Razor or a Norelco One Blade for around $35/$40.

I had a similar device like the no!no! brand. It works by singeing the hair first with a heated element and then lightly sanding the burnt hairs away. Sometimes it would hurt and there were a couple of times the thing left a burn mark on my skin. Just so you know it won't make your hair go away any more than shaving it. Nothing permanent or even delayed regrowth happens with a device like that. I don't recommend it.

@SilleeMee    Perhaps that's why it's called "no!no!"....Lol

I must be the only woman not the least concerned about peach fuzz on my face.  Now, if I could permanently get rid of those two hairs on my chinny chin chin.....  They claim if you pluck a hair over and over again it will eventually go away, but that hasn't worked for me.  I've been plucking those two for years.

You are not the only one concerned with peach fuzz on the face. I have plenty and I hate it. I've tried laser-hair-removal for it and that just doesn't get rid of it. So I just end up shaving it off.

I also have thick, dark brows with many strays. I was always plucking the strays so i decided to ask my derm about lasering them away but the cost was too much so I declined go that route. But here's the good news...I found a laser pen (Epilady brand) which has a tiny laser tip on it so you can target very small areas and even individual hairs like maybe your chin hairs. This pen is not meant to do a whole face but it's made to treat individual hairs. I have had success with it on my brows and also on some nasal hairs (just near the opening). Took several weeks but hair is gone. It's $200. My derm wanted $250 per session and she said it might take more than one visit, each at the same price. So I think this is a bargain compared to that.

I'm one of the many who bought and regretted it. They refer to it as a "treatment," but all it does is singe the hair off. My 1990's electric Lady Remington does a faster and better job. They were sued for making false claims. Even though it sounds like they're dialing down the claims in the presentations, they're still implying it does more than it can possibly do. Jennifer Crawford even said she no longer has hair. They make it sound like it's a one and done purchase, but those tips wear out or break and need to be replaced. I can't believe HSN has brought it back.

@SilleeMee Re-read my first sentence.  I am NOT concerned about the peach fuzz.  I think most women, at least those who frequent a Beauty board, are concerned about it and this the reason the No No presentation spends so much time on it. 

As far as the laser pen goes, that might've worked a few years ago when they were still black hairs, but they're gray now.  My understanding is that laser hair treatments only work on dark hairs on people with light skin.  For me, it's not the visual of them, I can feel them.

Oh sorry I miss-read your post.  But yes, you're right about the gray hair and laser-hair-removal not working on them.
