Yep. I tossed it on the "Only if you're desperate" shelf. Much rather get it out of the house via leg hair--lol

This is more a question that a beauty tip? Has anyone tried the oxygen infused conditioners? I just wondering if they work?
I actually buy cheaper conditioner just to shave my legs with. Don't need as much lotion afterwards and seems to last longer than shaving cream-less messy too!
I'v never heard of those. Can't see what they'd do, though--hair is dead, not breathing. ;D Conditioners just coat the hair shaft to make it smooth.
Haven't tried one.
I'm too sold on the sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners to switch.
While this is true of most conditioners you'll find at Walmart or the drug store, most salon products contain polypeptides, amino acids, and keratin proteins, and the like that actually have the ability to penetrate into the hair to make it healthier, stronger, etc.
Oxygen infused is a commercial selling strategy..... there is no actual proof it is beneficial to healthy hair.
Sulfate-free is fantastic.... if you have a choice, always choose sulfate-free, especially if your hair is chemically altered
Hi!
I do this. (If I remember correctly, it was also rumored to stunt hair growth.) It leaves my skin smooth and silky.
(Did anyone ever use the Epilator/ Epilady? Horrors! It was very expensive but I wanted one soooo much. My sweet husband spread the word and he and family got together to buy it for me. Yay! Not so much, yay. That thing freaking hurt like a mother-mother. Waxing is no biggie for me but that thing was torture. He11, it had my leg hair all tangled up and ripping it out. I was tempted to just duct tape it to my leg and wait until the hair grew long enough to scissor cut it off. Ha!)
Peace.
The Epilady was very high priced torture device. I thought I needed one in high school. I literally begged my mother to take that thing back to the store. No woman deserved to be tortured by that thing.
I remember seeing the commercials and thinking-ummmm, don't think so! Even with the ad glamorization it looked painful!
Just saw this tip...when wearing high heels, tape your third and fourth toes together, counting from the big toe, with medical tape (or even scotch tape is supposed to work). It supposedly prevents the nerves from becoming painful. I'll have to try this sometime-hardly ever wear heels anymore because they hurt!
I was too chicken to try it.
I got 1/4 of one shin done before I quit forever--lol. No one needs that kind of pain.
My girls have volunteered at a nature center for years, and they were told to do this. Also told that Bounce works best--they even tie Bounce sheets to the fronts of the wild birds' cages to keep the mosquitos away.
I didn't say I used the thing, but I still do have it! It hurt too bad.
Hi!
I totally messed it up!
I started to use the device and it was too much pain. So, there I was. My leg hair was trapped in the device and I could not figure out how to remove it. Have mercy! I yanked it it off (lost some skin) and returned it to the the store. Apparently, they had similar complaints and refunded the money.
Ha!
Peace.

Hi!
I was wondering where you kept it locked up.
Peace.
