You don't know me so you don't know what I am like, so get off your high horse and don't be so offensive.

I am not fooling myself into anything - I can see perfectly well thank you very much!
I'd love to show you the before and after pictures but not sure they are suitable for the forum! :eek:

I don't know you, but I do know how this device works. And that's enough for me to say that the manufacture's claims are bogus. It does not do what it says on the tin.

Moreover, you're not the first person to claim that something that clearly doesn't work, does. The world is full of people who swear by homeopathy, magnet therapy, detox diets, etc. That doesn't change the fact that none of these things works.

I almost bought one of those last week when I saw it at half price on the Internet... but I decided that, before I part with my hard earned dosh, I would check up on it.. and frankly, the reviews put me off and so did the £20 cost of the replacement heads.. Neither did I know how it worked until I read up about it and I would concur with you that singeing the hair would definitely not prevent it regrowing.. It's a shame though, that they have put men on the moon, invented non-stick frying pans, mobile phones etc etc... but there is no effective, permanent, cheap hair removal...

Ah well.....

There are options, but none of them is quick or cheap. Laser hair removal (not IPL) works, to an extent, for some people. You need to have the right type of hair/colour of skin. You also need to have an experienced practitioner operating a high-quality machine. It won't get rid of 100% of hair, and it probably won't last forever, but you can get dramatic results. It does cost a small fortune, though.

Electrolysis is more tried-and-tested. It definitely works, but it takes ages. Again, you need a good practitioner. It's cheaper than laser, but because it takes so long, the costs can go into the thousands, depending on how much hair you have.

But surely if she is fuzz free & no longer has to shave/no!no!, (this is something she can physically feel & see) it has worked? :undecided:

I've used an epilator for hair removal on my legs for years -consequently there is now hardly any re-growth at all -same as my eyebrows, years of plucking means they don't re-grow. So some systems do have long term affects.

Unless of course I am imagining the finer hair and patchy regrowth!! As i said, you need to be dedicated and do it regularly but I am happy with the results and as time goes on have to shave less and less...
Along with my friend and step mum who all have a NoNo too! Maybe all three of us our suckers! :rotfl:
My step mum has finer hair than me and she's seen better results in a shorter space of time

You are all arguing without even considering that maybe there are different sorts of people here!

My mum used to pluck her eye brows. I say used to because she began when she was 14 and by the time she was 18 they had stopped growing- its something she regrets because they are almost invisible but it was a trend when she was young, she has no eye brows not because they fell out but because she plucked them, the rest of her hair is all still there, (shes not bald and has to wax/eplillate regularly with the rest of us).

I started plucking my eye brows when I was 14, I did this regularly- not to the extend of plucking most of them off like my mum but I did pluck regularly (pretty much daily I'd check) because I hated them growing back. I am much older now and I still have to pluck my brows.

Could it be that just like my mum, and me there are some people that react to things like the no-no tool and others that it just doesn't work out for. Lazer is another treatment which works for some and not all and the Boots home lazer tool anyone? Now I know there are many that did not work for!

Take a step back for a minute and consider for a second both sides have had real experiences of this both working and not working. Just because someone has not had the same experience as you it doesn't mean they are wrong, it doesn't mean that they didn't experience something different to you.

I was looking for somewhere to ask this question. I can't find the answer anywhere else, yet.

I have been considering buying the No No for a while and my better half (nice bloke but no lady! ) bought it for my birthday from Argos where it was REALLY cheap £130ish. There are a couple of issues with this. Firstly The Argos No No is a different older type and Argos have their 30 day return exclusion on this item but doesn't affect statutory rights.

Here is my question. I am massively unhappy with it. I have used it correctly but it is time consuming, smelly (anyone who has worked in hospital theatres think diathermy x 10) and the day after I have visible stubble. I am not overtly hairy and I would say my hair isn't wirey or anything out of the ordinary. Can I return it because it's not fit for purpose? Is that a statutory right?

I am all for free choice but this is the worst hair removal product I have ever tried and whilst you're perfectly welcome to try it... I wouldn't if I were you

lulupop123

Oh no!no! hehe I'm afraid I haven't an answer for you, Maybe just try and take it back, if they say no, you could look into it a bit more? Worth asking first before, they may say yes!yes!

On a side note, oh dear, I bought one from this deal I hope it works better for me, also, it's taking forever to arrive. I know it says up to 3 weeks (it's nearly been 3 weeks) but why does it take so long!? Has anyone who ordered got theirs yet?

To be fair I would take it as a lucky save. It really is not a good bit of kit and a good wet and dry epilator eclipses it because the regrowth is slower and there is no smell
