Facial Hair Remover Spring Threading Tool - Our Women’s Facial Epilator Coil Removes Peach Fuzz, Chin, Cheek, Neck, Mustache and Upper Lip Hair Quickly - How to Use Instructions in Box

When I first tried the Epiwand, it just did not seem to work. I read reviews here on Amazon from some people who loved it, and some people who didn't. I ordered it anyway, hoping against hope that it would be useful.Once I received it, I bent it into the U-shape as instructed, and rolled it on my face. Nothing happened. I reread the directions that came with it in the box, applied it again to my face, and still nothing happened.Later that day I received an email from the company who manufactures this instrument. Hannah offered her assistance, and wanted to have my feedback about the Epiwand. I told her I didn't have any success with it, and she sent me a link to a video so that I could see how to correctly use the tool.Finally I watched the video, and I could see what I had been doing wrong. I believe that many of the people who did not give this item good reviews here, may have been missing a very important aspect of using this tool, which I picked up on when watching the video.I've taken some photos to illustrate the missing link. What I had been doing wrong, was that I had maintained the tool in a U-shaped position as I applied it to my face. I turned the handles of the wand, but nothing happened. When I watched the video that was sent to me, I could see that the girl in the video flattened the spring part of the wand (which is the part that removes the hair) against her face, and she maintained pressure so that the coiled spring formed a straight line on her face, rather than a U-shape. This is what makes the tool work! This is what I had NOT been doing!I've attached some photos showing both the incorrect way of using the tool, as well as the correct way. The INCORRECT way of using this item, is keeping it in the U-shape. You do NOT want to do this. I've also attached photos showing the correct way to use the Epiwand, which is to push it firmly against the face AS you also rotate the handles, causing the coiled spring to form a straight line across the face.Another important tip:Faces may be different, and hair growth may be different. I found that if the tool did not pick up the hair with me moving the FLATTENED spring against my face in one direction, it would remove the hair if I moved it in another direction. I not only go up and down on the facial surface, but also side to side. I move the wand at several different angles, to pick up hairs that may be growing differently, or just don't get caught by the tool when moving it in one particular direction.My experience with this company, and with their product has been excellent. Hannah stayed with me, emailing regularly to check on my progress, and was consistently in good communication. This company has superior customer service.I truthfully was very disappointed with the product initially. I just thought to myself... Well... more good money down the drain.... However in this case my conclusion turned out to be wrong.I can truthfully now say that I am thrilled with this product. Before using this wand, it was a tedious job of using tweezers and a magnifying mirror, and even holding a flashlight sometimes! to see and get all the hairs. Plus I couldn't watch TV as I was doing it. I had to be looking into the mirror to figure out where to put the tweezers, or where to shine the flashlight. Bummer.Now I just sit in the recliner, pick up the wand, and move it gently all around my face as I watch a movie or a show. With tweezers, I never got as many facial hairs as I do now with this Epiwand, and never was it so easily done.You can see from the pictures that I'm older, but I know many older ladies who would love this for Christmas. Women of all ages could benefit from the correct use of this ingenious device. I'm a fan! I'll be using only this from now on.

Got this specifically for upper lip hair - mine isn't too bad, but because I avoid the sun, it really stands out (to me) on the pale background. I want to learn makeup skills, but the hair becomes more noticeable with any color on my lips. It needs to go. Takes a bit to get used to, but it's no more painful than tweezing would be. The handle twisting motion is what entraps the hair. As you twist, the spring rolls across your skin. I originally thought you were supposed to repeatedly twist inward and then outward, kind of like a rocking motion, but you actually need to continue twisting in the same direction so the spring rolls far enough that the hair gets pulled from its root. It's very quick once you get used to it. Just note that if your hands and/or wrists have health issues, this will probably aggravate them. It's better to do short bursts in that case

The media could not be loaded. Not sure where manufactured and they don't tell you what the metal is...My first one was the bellabe that I bought many years ago. I am trying this one now. There was no user guide with mine and the supposed carry case gift is a complete joke. COMPLETE joke.They really should include a brush to clean out the inside because the hair it pulls out stays inside the coil and trust me when I say it starts to smell pretty offensive as the peach fuzz root stays lodged inside the coil and does what ever it does inside that closed capsule space. Be it ferment or tries to break down.The alloy or metal used on this one is not the same as the bellabe and it effects the grab. See pic. Bellabe is matte and this one is glossy and it doesn't grab as well as bellabe.What should take a few minutes takes about 10 and I still have loads of peach fuzz. If I pass after with my 10 year old bellbe it's like this epiwand didn't pull anything. It's a waste of money.Both this one and bellabe are lacking.They do get out the peach fuzz that is long enough but they don't get out the errant thick strange hairs that come out randomly at a certain female age. You need to do tweezers for those. The root of those is too massive for this to handle.See video
