Hair Removal Scams

Written by on November 17, 2006 · Leave a Comment

Hair removal is one of those areas where the scum of the earth play on our emotions to try and get us to buy their products and services.

Of course we’d all like to have smooth beautiful hair-free skin and we’d like to achieve it quickly, painlessly and permanently, not to mention at low cost. But those solutions DO NOT EXIST. Believe me I have looked.

Just like in the area of weight loss where miracle scam products are pretty prolific, you’ll see plenty of ads for creams and lotions which promise to stop hair growth and equipment which promise to remove the hair painlessly and simply in your own home.

You can't believe every ad, especially in hair removal

All I can say is don’t believe the ads without doing a whole heap of  research online and off. There are plenty of good souls who will tell you whether the product did what it said on the tin and removed their hair painlessly and permanently or not. And if there is no believable (not made up by the seller) review of the product you’re thinking of then it just can’t be the miracle hair remover / hair inhibitor it is advertised to be. If it worked as well as they say it does there would be a whole heap of free positive publicity about it.

The hair removal miracle products change their product names, packaging and advertising as regularly as it rains in Scotland to try and make you think that their scam is something new. They will tell you about medical and consumer tests and show you before and after pictures. Lies all lies….

If you have been caught by any hair removal scams feel free to leave a comment to help everyone else out…

Is Your Hair Removal Device an Overpriced Paper Weight?

Written by on November 20, 2006 · Leave a Comment

Wouldn’t you rather know the experiences of others who have tried a device before you pay your money?

When researching, watch out for those who pretend to give personal reviews but which are really only adverts.

This kind of scamming seems to happen whenever people are desperate for a solution but no easy solution is available and that is often the case with hair removal where professional solutions to remove hair permanently are expensive and take months if not a year or so.

The Hair Tell Forum is a great place for looking up any products which sound too good to be true. And in fact many products that promise permanent hair removal are complete scams.

For example one buyer of a hair removal device writes

“I wouldn’t recommend purchasing this product, unless you are looking for an over priced paper weight. I followed the directions exactly. After numerous tries, I realized this product did not work at all. It literally did not remove a single hair, any where! Not to mention the shitty “customer service” provided by the manufacturer”.

Is your hair removal device an expensive paperweight?

If you want hair removal reviews from real buyers, try Amazon which seems to sell everything these days. You may get the odd manufacturer trying to pose like a buyer but I haven’t spotted many of them there and in any case they get “drowned out” by unhappy buyers by the truckload if the products are no good. Try their hair removal products pages here to find the product you are interested in and then read between the lines on each review before making up your mind.

Just look at the difference in reviews between the Tria laser hair removal system and the NoNo hair removal units as an example and it can really help you make up your mind to buy one hair removal system or another or none at all!
