I had one of those in the early 90's. I think it was called Gently Gold and I bought if off an infomercial and it was so painful and horrible! I'm glad to hear they've come a long way. I was just looking at Target the other day trying to decide if I was up for torture again.

So, for the underarms, do you have to let it grow a long time before you can use it? I think with the old one I had, it was 21 days. Or can it get really short hair from just a couple days growth?
I have PCOS too and get awful sideburns that I wax at home. I don't like waxing though so it would be great if this could work.
