Hangsun Epilators for Women 2 in 1 Cordless Epilator and Electric Lady Shaver F230 Rechargeable Hair Removal Kit for Face, Bikini, Leg, Arms

Nice compact unit which is easy to use. After unpacking I gave it a quick charge and in no time it was put to work. Very effective on chin area where the hairs are fine. Whilst there is a sensation whilst being used it is quite painless. Would recommend as great value, sturdy, easy to use and compact.

Unlike many reviewers of this product I have years of experience epilating, so I'm hoping I can clear up some of the bad stuff people have posted. Anyway, my Braun silk was knocking on, & the battery failing, so I thought I'd go for a straight replacement. But the nag for me is the price & the "Braun bite" caused by the stupid "safety" cover over the rollers, I used to leave it off "dangerous me"! So when I saw this cheapo, with not too many bells & whistles, & free returns with Prime, it was a no brainer. Now I've only used it a couple of times, so obviously I cannot comment on it's longevity. But the first was a full body job, excepting under arms & the crown jewels (not that brave or stupid). Nor obviously the face. My findings - Very powerful motor, far more so than the Braun when new. This resulted in a less painful experience. If you do not like/or cannot tolerate pain why are you thinking of buying an epilator? Take no notice of how many nippers this little devil has, it's its speed that makes the difference, also the width of the rollers is comparable to the Braun silk, which means you cover the same amount of area in one pass. Also consider I'm a guy, so need it to give a good tug. If you are of a downy disposition then use speed 1, & it will be more effective. You can use this epilator as cordless, or with the recharging lead (mine came with a UK 3 pin plug) connected to any plug socket around your home. I found the battery life to be very good, but again I don't know the quality of the battery in the unit. I like the grip, it feels much more comfortable & secure in my hand than the Braun does. Finally, its effectiveness - No, it will not pull out all of your hair in one pass, & you will not find an epilator on the market that will! Your hair does not grow uniformly, so you WILL need to pass over some hairs a few times at different angles to tweeze them out. It takes time to do a proper job, & unfortunately the longer it takes the more torture you will put yourself through. As for observations on other reviews - "Noisy" - WTF - it's powerful, you should expect it to make a bit of a din! & I personally don't find it noisy. "Gets hot" - that was not my experience, & I used it long & hard the first time. "Not waterproof" - Who in there right mind wants to use it in the shower/bath? Find a nice comfortable spot around the house with decent light (so you can monitor your progress), put a towel down & get it done. "It hurts" - of course it does, it's an instrument of torture! Don't be swayed by your mate, they all make you wince. "Can't be used on bikini line" - yes it can, but as with all epilators don't use it before getting dressed to go out. Do your mowing & then slip on your jimmy jams. Hope this helps..............

Works it is a bit painful

This is the first epilator I have used. Previously I have used electric razors a lot, wet razors and waxing. Wanted to try an epilator but didn’t want to spend a lot of money on it. The epilator works fairly well. Takes a few goes over the same area to remove the hair fully but gives a decent result. For the price it’s fine, not amazing. I would not recommend the razor head that comes with this. Used it for the first time today for a quick shave as heading to a swimming pool shortly and my legs are now a bleeding mess, literally! I have never had this with an electric razor before but I will not be using it again! For a basic epilator it’s cheap and does the job, would not recommend using as a razor.

When I first got this, I thought it was one of the best things I ever bought. I use it primarily on my face and neck, and it was great for plucking out even the finest white hairs and leaving my skin smooth for weeks. However, the head comes off as a complete, closed unit so the epilating roller itself can't be removed and cleaned which is annoying. Now, 6 months later, it's unusable because the roller just stalls and stops working as soon as it touches my skin. I have no idea if this is a battery failure, or if it needs lubricating in some way, or if it is dirty inside and needs to be totally disassembled and cleaned, but it's no good. Browsing for a new one now.

Have always used epilators instead of shaving as lasts longer and legs seem smoother. I was gutted when my old one packed up as had it years and would have to go through looking at all the varieties and price tags. This one i have had at least a year now and is still as good as the day i got it (yes it has been used once a week not just occassionally). Due to it being cordless and waterproof it ticked all the boxes (as best way for less bumps and more hairs out is to have warm bath and use it in there) it charges up very quickly and having the 2 settings is very helpful. The head is just a nice size to be able to use on bikini areas as well as legs. It can be painful which gets less everytime you use it. However what i have found is the warmer the body,with the hairs not too long (maybe max 5mm) the less it tingles and as said before in warm bath less bumps. Would recommend this to anyone and would honestly say don't just use once and dismiss it is an aquired tingly feeling you get whilst it's plucking (kinda like pins and needles) and some areas are certainly more sensitive than others!!! But on a whole it's certainly cheaper and i believe more effective than waxing. Plus the hairs do seem to get thinner. Hope this helps.

I was nervous about buying this epilator because I hadn't heard of the brand, but what a great surprise. It's so much better than my previous one (a Braun Silk epil) which had lasted me over ten years and so didn't owe me anything, but prices have zoomed up. This little gadget is so much better than the Braun one- it really does remove all my leg hair in one go, whereas before I wasn't left completely smooth to the touch. The little light is handy to show any fair hairs you might miss. The battery has never failed - it lasts over 30 minutes, although I don't mind sitting near a plug anyway. I get no angry red bumps (like a plucked chicken!) after using this epilator and as the price is so affordable I'm a big fan.
