Braun Silk-Epil ER 1290 Electric Shaver

Hurts the first couple of times if you haven't waxed in a while but after that it's a breeze(and I have coarse hair on my legs). the same applies to underarm and bikini line hair. I don't find it more painful than waxing , not at all.I have sensitive skin and this does not pull my skin like waxing.
