Whats the difference between this one and the £80 sallys one?

This one only says bikini line too. Presume the sallys one is fine to use all over down below?

EDIT just seen it has rubbish reviews on boots the babliss one.

hmm I think i shall get some normal stips first and see how I go incase I cant stand the pain.

Noticed Sallys has a vat free day today too. If I know its okay and I could use it I would buy now.

Clicked thanks instead of quote on that, lol!

You won't get it perfect first time, there is a little technique, but it's nothing you can't pick up from the instructions or from you tube!

The hairs will grow back finer and less frequently, and there are patches on my legs now that don't grow at all! A definite difference, and you only have to wax every few weeks as opposed to shaving every couple of days or using the cream every few days.

That looks good?

Like the idea of hair not growing back! Read some scary things if you dont do it right y ou get ingrown hairs etc eek!

I would suggest that you go and get a professional wax before you layout serious spondoolies on a kit - otherwise you may find -as I did - that youreally, really, really can't stand it:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Honestly I cried as it hurt so much

The embarassment factor doesn't factor in so much as you hurt too much to notice your legs going up in the air!

Not sure on the amazon one, seems just like using cold strips because I can't see how the wax would be thoroughly heated with the wand - with the sallys one, it goes on warm which makes a big difference.

You get ingrown hairs with epilators too, much worse than with waxing. Just make sure you exfoliate regularly, and you should have no probs.

I won't lie, it is uncomfortable the first couple of times, but you get used to it, and the convenience of not shaving (and having itchy shaving rash in 'those' areas:eek:) outweighs the pain I think. But it's down to personal preference (and pain threshold!!)

Yes I think your right before I buy one I must see if i can stand the pain:rotfl:

Just have to overcome my shyness though to have one:o

Is there any cheaper wax strips than you can heat from boots so I can try it out at home before buying the expensive kit?
