R.E.M Spring Facial Hair Remover - The Original Hair Removal Spring [Design Patent]. Removes Hair from Upper Lip, Chin, Cheeks and Neck. 100% Stainless Steel

I used to think I was one of a few ladies with this problem, so this item put that idea to rest. This item is great. I have never had smoother skin than I do right now and I have been shaving for over 50 years. To put some issues to rest: does it hurt, it is uncomfortable because you are pulling out several hairs at once. However, the next time you need to use it there are fewer hairs and much less discomfort. It was over two weeks before I had to go over it again, but there were so few hairs, while I could feel it, it was not the same as getting many pulled out at once. I have had this for almost three months and only needed to use it three times and each time there were fewer and fewer hairs. I am certain it won't be long until I will not need to use it at all. I am sorry it took me so long to find an item like this.

I received this a few days ago and was looking forward to using it. As a fair skinned brunette I get some dark hair on my upper lip and also a few dark hairs on the upper side of my neck. Not only being fair skinned but also having sensitive skin it is hard to find a product that works at `removing' the hair. I have tried everything from plucking to cream kits. The last thing I used that worked was a cream kit but for two days after my upper lip was so swollen and red from the chemicals I could barely talk. I would have to sleep with Neosporin on my upper lip after using the cream since it was so harsh. I read the reviews for this `spring' and figured I would give it a try. Upon receiving it I was doubtful. It comes in a box with poorly explained instructions. It does come with a nice soft case to keep the spring in which was a plus. I read the instructions and it stated to hold the spring in an upside down `U' shape and push in and outward. I took the spring to a mirror and for 30 minutes nothing happened. I was ready to chalk this up to another failed device. I then watched the video for the device and it more or less is trying to sell it to you and not show you how to use it. I then went to the most popular video website and typed in the item and found one where a woman demonstrated using it. Right away I realized that when you hold it upside down you need to twist the ends left and right continuously in order for it to work. It did not state this in the instructions. Back to the mirror I went and sure enough with me twisting the ends constantly I felt it `grab' the hairs and slowly removing them. I will not say it was painless but then again your upper lip area is a very sensitive area. I was able to remove all the hairs and I did not have any redness after. It hurt during the process but no more pain afterwards. I also used it on the side of my upper neck and it removed those hairs as well. I did put some oil free moisturizer on my upper lip after to prevent any dryness. When I was done I tapped the device hard to remove any loose hair and put it in the soft case it came with. Please note you cannot clean the device with water since it will rust. It recommends being cleaned with high pressured air. I will keep cleaning it the way I have been and hope it stays clean. Also remember to not share this with anyone, not even a family member. Not being able to disinfect it completely you don't want to risk the possible infection to another person. I must say when I first tried this I thought it was a waste and pure junk but now that I know how to use it I am so thankful for it. My upper lip is very soft and does not have the burn and irritation that I am used to. For the price and knowing you will be using it more than once it is a great investment. I would highly recommend this product. Give it some time to get used to learning how to use it and you will love it to!

I've been shaving my chin and neck (under the chin, not the whole neck) for close to 30 years. I hate it because I don't like waking up w/stubble, especially if I'm visiting someone or have my own visitors who see me before I shower. I saw this online after searching for a solution and decided to try it due to the good reviews. It's a simple piece of equipment and I could see just by looking at it how it works and for $20 def worth a try. So. The first night I received it I gave it a go and THOUGHT it was working. I told my daughter it felt like little static shocks, no big deal. I sat in front of the mirror for about an hour using it, realizing at the end of that hour I really was just learning HOW to use it and OMG, when I was using it correctly boy did it hurt! Especially on the chin, for those thick and plentiful hairs that I've been keeping shaved for 30 years. However since I had started this torturous procedure I was committed and kept going. After about 40 minutes of getting hairs I stopped, realizing that by no means was I done. After about 10 minutes in the process of painfulness the pain subsided, or rather my chin was just super numb by that time. The next night, now having a good idea of how this device worked, I took another shot. Once you get the hang of it, and it does take a while, it works well (in that it grabs a multitude of hair at the same time). Again pain until numb. About an hour later I stopped, realizing that I got SO many more hairs but not all of them. Yikes. The next day I finished up and boy oh boy was my chin/neck smooth. The third day of pulling wasn't as painful and I'm not sure if my chin was just used to it or more than likely, the stubborn/hard to pull hairs were gone so the hairs that were left were easier to pull? I did notice that some hairs don't come out the first time they get pulled, and I would have to go over the same spot over and over, finally pulling the entirety of the hair out, so for me it wasn't a quick answer nor was it painless, however I woke up this morning with NO stubble. I sent a photo of the contraption to my sister and she replied that she's been using an epilator (electric one) for years which sounds a LOT easier. BUT, since i've been through the initial pain and my chin/neck is hair free i'm going to keep it up w/this spring and see how it goes. 4 stars, taking one off for pain and the fact that rolling over and pulling (painfully) a hair doesn't actually always pull it out, so sometimes ONE hair can cause a multitude of pains. But it worked. UPDATE: I ended up returning this and buying a cordless epilator. What a difference. Didn’t realize how wonderful The cordless epilator! I feel silly for not trying it first and skipping is torture device. The epilator pulls out hairs completely, but works like a razor in that one swipe over your hairs and they’re pretty much gone.

This hair remover works as advertised. Of course it’s painfull, it pulls hair out the roots. I’d recommend using this every few days so you don’t have all that hair to rip out every single time, just the new ones. Information provided online here at Amazon reads- not for people with arthritic hands. I don’t have arthritis. However, this is hard on the thumbs and I think it’s because it’s smooth. They should’ve made a textured pattern on the ends that you twist. In addition they should’ve made them bigger. The only other negative I have is the box is insanely hard to open and I cut it open at the top where the item was packaged and I cut right through the case to keep the hair remover in.

As written by my girl: :O this thing is AMAZING!!!! After learning I should stop waxing while on tret, I was having my upper lip threaded. It never came out perfect, always stragglers and I’d have to keep going back week after week. I was looking for a threading kit to do it myself at home and came across this device. WOW! It hurts so bad! But I keep telling myself it is bc it is the first time and there was quite a bit to remove. Either way, it freaking works!!!! My upper lip has not been hair free for what feels like a year and I am in love with this spring!!! I seriously have not stopped looking at my upper lip :P I even told my friends about it bc WOW!! So, yes, it hurts, hopefully with upkeep it stops hurting as badly. You have to twist the spring. It only works one way so make sure you are doing it right. I twist the spring handles inwards. It is addictive. I suddenly wanted to remove peach fuzz that has never ever bothered me. Yeah, just get it. It sucks that is is made in Israel but if you can look past that, get it!!!!!! It seriously is the best purchase I’ve made in a while.

**Please read!** I’ve had this hair remover tool for a year now & in all honesty loved and highly recommended this to others. However, please BEWARE that regular use has made my upper lip and chin hair WORSE. ☹️ In the beginning, results were noticeable and phenomenal! But regular use has resulted in me having a “5 o clock shadow” after 1 skipped day & chin hairs I didn’t have prior to using this tool. I’ve made a laser hair removal appt this week bc I’m not wearing makeup everyday to cover a mustache. Ladies, if you can’t afford laser treatments, avoid needing to in the future & seek an alternative method from this coil. This hair remover tool absolutely works short term, but causes more crap to deal with long term. From my experience it is not worth using.

I'm at the age where my hormones are changing. Unfortunately, they decided to do it during Covid... when I was wearing a mask everywhere. That's when I notice..... uh oh!!! .... I'm starting to raise a mustache! Not good at all! Thank goodness I was wearing a mask! But that came to an end and here I was with a very light-colored mustache. It was terrible! I was so embarrassed! So, I waxed it. Ouch! Not to mention that my face was red where I waxed it for a couple of days. Makeup didn't cover the redness. In fact, made my upper lip even more noticeable and people would ask what was wrong with my face. So embarrassing. It was better just to have this blonde mustache. I looked at lots of gadgets trying to figure out what would work best. I had used an electric epilator in the past on my legs and the results were terrible. I honestly didn't want to go through that again, especially with my face. I saw this little gadget and figured it wouldn't work. It was a spring. What was so special about it? I was just skeptical. More time passes. I was just miserable and decided to just be "hairy". Then, without much notice, I was invited someplace where I knew I'd see lots of people from my past. I couldn't bear the thought of the mustache. So I shaved it. I looked great! But two days later, stubble. Man stubble! Eeeek! I should have just left it alone in the first place. But I couldn't stand it anymore and refused to shave again. So back to looking at this gadget again. What the heck.... it was only $20 so I bought it. When I got it, of course, just like me, I didn't read the directions to see how to properly use it, I mean, how hard could it be? It was a simple spring. And it didn't work. Oh well. But then, I got an email the next day from the company thanking me for the purchase and they also told me to watch the video that was recommended with the product (which I didn't do). I did exactly what the email told me to do. It was so simple!!!! I felt stupid for not watching the video instructions. Within 5 minutes, the mustache was gone. I mean, even the tiniest little hairs. GONE!!! There was a little sting, but I was expecting that, it wasn't really that bad at all. The mustache hasn't returned, and neither has the stubble. I just use this little gadget for about a minute just in case, but there's nothing! All gone, root and all! I know it will slowly return but I'm not worried. BTW, there was no redness afterwords either. A brilliant little gadget, very easy to use. But I do highly recommend that you watch the video, especially if you are a skeptic.... like me. I see online that there are many types to choose from, most have some sort of plastic ends or handles, I'm not a big fan of plastic, but this one - I know - will hold up for a long time, its stainless steel, which I think it a big plus. It will not lose its shape or effectiveness. I definitely recommend this to anyone who is reading this. If I could give it more stars, I would. This has helped me regain much of my confidence when I have to go out into the real world. I'm not at all self-conscious anymore and I think I look pretty good again! My face is soft and smooth and hair free!

I was hesitant to purchase a device that would pull hair instead of shaving. ( I did pluck however when I found heavier stragglers in odd places like the spot where lips meet ). But thought I would give it a try! Once you get the hang of it, it works great. As you use in time the hair comes out easier and easier. Your face becomes smooth and smoother. And you can go many days in between without doing nothing at all!! This is a great product for the many who don't want to shavet constantly.. P.S. I usually use this when I'm watching TV....

De bonne qualité, tres bon produit , efficace et facile d'utilisation

I bought this product cuz I was beginning to get frustrated by a sudden surge of PCOS related hormonal facial hair along my jawline. I’ve used it just once but it works so well! It’s really easy to get a hang of. I would say the pain is about the same as threading or plucking hair. It hurts for a split second yes, but there’s no pain or redness after. I would suggest googling or watching a YouTube video to learn how to use the spring first, but trust me it’s really straightforward. And plucks multiple hairs at once, from the root, so you can tell it is doing the job cuz the little hairs may stick in the spring. It is also stainless steel so it won’t rust! Really glad I bought this. One drawback is that some hairs are harder to pull out if they are too fine or in tricky spots.

Ok - so I was on Amazon looking for something to help remove facial hair and found this item with masses of rave reviews. I then realised I was on the US site instead of the UK. There were only about 4 reviews on the UK site but as the US site was so effusive in their praise I decided to give it a try. Now I had no hair issues at all on the face and neck until I hit 40. Since then I suddenly started sprouting coarse dark hairs on upper lip and chin and also finer blonder hairs. I had read a few reviews on this item on the US site, including some top tips about how to use it. I took it out of the packet, made an upside down U shape, placed it against my top lip and then twirled the two ends outwards. OMG - it worked like a dream. Now it isn't painless. you can't expect it to be pain free. There are a few 'jumpy' moments but it removes more hair than I ever thought I had! It is also easy to do without a mirror. If you want it to be virtually pain free I suggest sitting on the sofa, stick on a box set, drink a couple of glasses/bottles of wine and then let rip (sipping more wine in between goes). You can do this for 2 mins each evening and no more unsightly hairs. I highly recommend this - one of the simplest yet most effective thing I have ever used.
