This is the first word which springs to mind when using this epilator! Us women must be crazy, the things we do to for vanity.
The first time i used this, i could have screamed the house down, however, the second time i used it i'd made sure i'd had a few glasses of wine, and sure enough the pain factor was lessoned! You do get used to this little machine pulling your hairs out eventually, it is just a question of are you brave enough to persevere?
It does actually work and you are basically hair free for a few weeks. Word of warning though, after you have used it, for several hours after your skin will resemble that of a christmas eve turkey, so best not go out in your favourite short skirt straight after!
