Yeah, it would probably work out okay for me since I would want to use it mainly on like my chest and arms, and I don't necessarily always keep a close shave there. But I think for most women, they want to use it on legs and face, but don't want to have to wait for stubble to grow there!

ok the subject of facial hair has come up today, anyone ever use this little magic device to remove unwanted hair permanently?

Its a hand held unit, you just roll over your face, bikini, under arms, legs, back, check well anywhere on your body! within a few months or faster it is suppose to remove hair forever!

Hi everyone! I'm new here and I just HAD to post a reply to this. I got a NONO for free as a promotion a year or so ago, used it once on my legs and CHUCKED IT OUT!

All it is a heated filament that lowers when you press down, with a silly light that turns on and does nothing. Honestly all it does is burn the hair it passes over. Seriously. That's all it does. Imagine accidentally burning off some of your arm hair over on the stove while cooking. Not enough to burn your skin, but enough to singe the hair. That wouldn't give you permanent hair removal. It would just make your kitchen smell really bad. The NONO does the same thing. My bathroom smelled awful for hours.

I strongly recommend against buying this overpriced, useless, smelly contraption. It's all marketing and no results. The only thing that has ever worked for me to permanently remove hair is laser treatment.
Best. Investment. Ever.

Tiny, nono is completely useless ( at least for me), and after u use it u smell like a fire roasted chicken with burnt feathers! and yes, u do feel the stubble and u cannot remove hair from the curves... so I had to use the razor too...I bought it from Sephora , used it few times and returned it...

Maybe daler,

I know I had read the previous threads and was going to search them out but we had the web site issues!

I do recall they made me think a resounding no to spending on a NO NO! Laughing

I've read mixed reviews on epilators. They actually rip the hair out of you. (yay?) They might be worth looking into.

oh noooooooooooooo I used one of those in my late 20's maybe early 30's, I am old memories foggy now, and omg it was awful, didnt slow down anything, other than I got the joy of ripping hair out just as often! I prefer not needing to drink while I shave

Ryan you might want to check out this other product Daler found, since you do your chest and arms, it really might be perfect! I would assume while you can get away with stubble, you might not want it either Very Happy

Hey everyone, my sister picked up one of these. I just got off the phone with her and asked her about it.

She says it's a pc. of junk. A match would do a better job.

So another no-no...

Yes! I honestly can't believe it's still on the market. You'd think they'd be sued for false advertisement and for insulting our intelligence.

Claudia I hope she returned it though - they've got a 60 day money back guarantee here in the UK and sure they must have something similar in the US!
