ah ok i gotcha. sorry for making light of things earlier i didn't know how much this meant to you. yeah my legs are hella smooth now an i'm loving it a lot, but a really close shave with a safety razor gets me similar results! only real difference is that the hair grows back much sooner than with epilating. if you do decide to epilate i wish you the best of luck, but if you want a more pain free method of smoof legs, shaving (specifically with a safety razor! or maybe a straight blade if you own and know how to use one) can get you there, you just gotta do it more often.
