    Yeah. I noticed that many reviews are either very positive or only negative because of a complication with the item and their skin. For me I had no complications other than the fact it hurt a lot. The “pain free” advertisement wasn’t true for me. Felt like I was getting shocked with heat every time until my hair follicles started to get smaller and my hair got thinner. It works for sure, but it’s a process that can be painful or great depending on hair thickness, cause the follicle will depend on thar

    Love to see this topic get more attention online! One important thing is to be conscious about your own hair growth cycle, since it can definitely take way over a year for certain body areas to be really hair free, even when you IPL them weekly. Not getting frustrated when you’re unable to target these stragglers is a lesson to be learned. Knowing this is normal helps ease people’s mind a lot

    That does make sense as the hair on me that did not grow less but instead more were thicker deeper "ladybeard" hairs but my moustache and arms, hands, fingers, responded beautifully. I also get darker pigment from injuries but don't get them from my IPL knock of thing. And I used it three times on the same spot on the highest setting with naturally tan skin. So i think for the hair under my chin I need real laser. But I'm still extremely happy with the results I got from it on the other hairs, especially since I didn't do it regularly or often.

I used philips IPL to remove my bushy chest hair and armpits and it didn't burn even on the highest setting, but you definitely have to shave beforehand because the burnt hair stings, gets the glass dirty and smells pretty bad. You get about 30 flashes on the highest setting when its unplugged.

    Thank you, i knew there was a difference between ipl and laser, but not what it was. Drop shipping is kinda a thing for everything you can find online, though it’s more of a safety concern with something like ipl than it might be for other products. I even had someone drop ship some of the handmade items I sell in my Etsy shop! White labeling is a similar issue, and sometimes even causes more confusion/harm because the products often look more legit because they have actual branding and sometimes advertising behind them!

    I use the pink Ulike one, it is soooo amazing! But yes, consistency and being thorough is key. I take about a half hour to 45 minutes to IPL my whole body. That doesn’t include showering and shaving time. Sometimes, if I have the device on full power for a while, I turn it off and give some time to cool down. My first month of using it ate up so much of my personal time. I am going to be honest, I found it super annoying and taxing in the moment. But the results are WORTH IT!!! My legs have never looked this good. What they don’t talk about with IPL, since you’re not getting ingrown hairs as much, the overall look and feel of your skin improves immensely. I am a great candidate for it though, so super white skin and medium/dark brown hair.

    I've been using the purple Ulike one and think it's brilliant! I got my for Christmas and haven't zapped my legs in nearly two weeks (meant to do it last weekend but didn't get to it), haven't shaved since the weekend and the hair is barely growing so it's working pretty well there. My bikini line is slower on the uptake and I'm still doing it generally twice a week but even then my skin doesn't get nearly as irritated any more from shaving which is great to see. Plus, with that sapphire tech I don't feel anything - though once or twice I caught a sunspot and that stung a little but normally this doesn't happen. I've gone over other sunspots without issue so not sure what happened there. Either way find this much preferable to waxing

I have started using it again now every week on the face, and alternating week on arms and legs. This is because I had much slower growth on arms and legs and have stubborn hair on my face. So I am going to stick with it for a second full session and see how it goes. I do want to get the glasses to protect my eyes. This one does not come with one and I have no idea where to start the research and which one to buy. If anyone knows please let me know :(

I'm using it on my legs+arms (dark blonde hair) and my bikini zone + armpits (dark brown hair) and I'm very white/pale with a litzle tan left over from my SA-vacation (waited 4 weeks before I started treatment). I use full power everywhere except the very sensitive area in my bikini zone. There it's on 4/5. It gets warm, but I had no burns and no redness. I followed the instructions and tested each area first going from low to high and going one down if it was painful. I am VERY interested to see if it works on the lighter hair (I can see them when they grow longer) have bo hopes, but hey it doesn't hurt to try it

    I used the NOOD first and found it fairly effective but not long lasting. I purchased the latest ULIKE 10 recently ($100 discount) and I am already seeing results including the more difficult hairs. I like the cooling technology and am anxious to see if it will provide long term results. The NOOD is still working so I'm passing it off to my teenage daughter. I like that the ULIKE came with protective glasses designed for the IPL light. Not waxing or tweezing before has been key. Not an advertisement, just what I've tried so far. I wish the ULIKE had more detailed instructions on the different levels.. but it's good so far.

    I had professional laser hair removal done on my full legs (8 sessions) and it worked great, lasted a few years. I’m not sure if it was my weight gain or if it had just been too long since my last treatment, but a lot of the hair came back. Still not as dense as it used to be, maybe 70% of that. So I think you may need to keep doing it fairly routinely to keep the results

    Ive had it done professionally on my upper lip and was told/warned that the hair would probably grow back in fases of hormonal change like pregnancy and menopause. Also, back then (about 10 years ago) I was told home-devices were not powerful enough and it would be a waste of my money, which has always kept me skeptical of them. I did need double the amount of ipl-sessions than what was considered average for "definitive" hair removal, Ten years later i can confirm it has grown back more than I am comfortable with, and I am considering starting again with IPL. I remember the dermatologist had to set the machine according to my skintone- and was very precise about this, but haven't heard anything like that for the home versions which leaves me questioning. Would love to learn more about these differences. Best wishes

    My hair is so resilient. I used the Kenzzi for a year and saw a 50% reduction in hair growth and a slight reduction in density on my arms and legs but nothing in the other areas. Then, I decided to go for professional treatment and got 6 sessions done. I still had hair but I only paid for the 6 sessions so I waited till I got more money and then paid for 7 more sessions a few months later. I'm on session 4 now and I still have quite a bit of hair but its definitely getting there. Some clinics will do in-clinic IPL instead of laser but I did the proper laser hair removal. Another really annoying thing is that my armpits still have hair even though I hardly had hair there to begin with. My armpits are the lightest part of my body and I have pale skin everywhere and dark hair. The Kenzzi was also pretty painful downstairs and I would rate it pretty much on par with in-clinic laser. I would still suggest trying at-home IPL treatments because they'll work for most people. Even if you do an in-clinic laser, it doesn't get rid of the hair forever and yearly maintenance treatments are suggested so buying this device can keep you hairless forever.

    I feel like another thing people don't talk about is that even after successful treatments, the hair can start growing back over time, especially after drastic hormonal changes such as after child birth. I got laser hair removal years ago. Did 12 treatments and was extremely happy with the results, but a couple years later, I had a baby and some of my hair definitely came back. It's still way less hair than it used to be, but I might go ahead and do more laser treatments in the future

    I bought the Diamond IPL, thinking it was the Kenzi. I had seen a few videos of a KZreadr (Kayley Melissa) using the Kanzi a few years back and having success with it. I saw the ad for the Diamond IPL device come up and I couldn't remember the name of the Kenzi at the time but it looked the same so I bought it. I've only used it a few times and not regularly or consistently enough to see results. It does get warm, so I can't stay on an area too long, and have had to shut it off for a few minutes to let it cool down when doing my legs (lots of surface area). They did include glasses and a cheap razor in the package, so that is good that they highlighted safety and the "don't wax or pluck before" part of the method. It would be interesting if you a) warned your viewers of look-alikes, and/or b) tried it out to see if it works

    Hair has several growth stages but each hair follicle is in its individual stage (so not all hair is in the same growth stage at once, hence, the patches of hair and the need for multiple treatments). IPL is most effective on a hair follicle in the anagen (growth) stage.

    Im gonna say i bought the Remington iLight machine, way before it got popular i think. Im gonna say over 6-7 years ago. I got lazy and never used it. You have to replace the light cartage because it only has a certain amount of flashes. Do like that you have to scan your skin before the machine works, if you skin doesn’t pass it wont work.

    I have the Braun one because it was sold at target and they have a great return policy if the product didn't work.

    I bought the Silk’n Glide a few years ago and I am happy with it. I used it regularly in the beginning but have been inconsistent last year so my hair was greatly reduced on my legs. If I kept it up regularly until now, I would be hairless (or close to it). There is no cooling feature but I had no issues (no skin burns, overheating, or pigmentation issues). It worked on my legs, side burns, chin, arm pits. Only problem area is the moustache (I can treat the corners of my mouth but that’s it. I will have to find another IPL to target the moustache.)

    I need advice! I got the ulike device on sale so I don’t have to worry every week about shaving my armpits and would also like to use it on my lower legs. My body hair is naturally blonde (naked to the eye) except on my lower legs because I used to pluck my blonde hair and it grew back darker, which is clearly visible to the eye. If I use the ulike device on my lower legs where the hair is dark and accidentally go over the blonde hair will it burn my skin, or just not do anything?
