PRODUCT REVIEW- No!No! Hair removal

Today, I'm reviewing the NoNo Hair remover, that I bought online from my-no-no.com 3 weeks ago.

I've been using this product for 2 weeks now, about 3 times a week. I can already tell you that the results weren't quite what I expected. For one, the smell of burning hair is a real turn off, unless, for some unknown reason, you're into the odor of rotten eggs. Secondly, I have very fine hair on my legs from YEARS of hot waxing. This seems to be a problem with the NOno. You have to go over the same area at least 3 times before you can get any sort of hair removal. This is a problem if you have sensitive legs, as the removal blade can get quite hot.
I decided to try the NoNo against hot waxing, the Nono on one leg and the tried-and -true wax on the other. What I found:
There are some advantages to the NoNo system. I have noticed that the hair that was removed is growing back much slower and lighter than the waxed leg.
Secondly, it seems as though the leg I used the Nono on was actually smoother than the waxed leg, though not for long, as the stubby hairs appear after 2 days.
The verdict: If I could go back in time, I would probably not have bought the Nono, it just seems like a waste of money, unless you're sasquatch and have a lot of time on your hands.
On the other hand, when the Nono starts showing up in the thrift stores ( as I'm sure they will) you should pick on up provided they are no more than $20.

Overall rating: :S - Crooked emoticon- only worth it if you have time and an extra $200 lying around.
