Because she's got better things to do. Rotating discs and 36 tweezers on a double-active surface remove hair from the root quickly and effectively, so hair re-growth is slower and finer.

Emjoi Optima Hair Removal System, Model AP-99 rates 4 out of 5 stars, from 60 customer reviews.Much better than expected
by Jeanette[Verified Reviewer] in Portland Oregon on 1/10/10
Pros: Close Shave, Easy to Use
Describe Yourself: Clean Cut
Best Uses: Dry Use
Cons: Irritates Skin
Bottom Line: recommended
I remember the Epilady, a torture device that hurt so much I went back to shaving quickly. This product gives you the smoothness of waxing at a lower price, with much less time invested. I used it on my underarms and was surprised at how tolerable the discomfort was. I was a little tender afterwards, but no more than waxing or even what I get from a close shave. I am pretty pleased.
Emjoi Optima Hair Removal System, Model AP-99 rates 5 out of 5 stars, from 60 customer reviews.Great product
by epilating fan[Verified Buyer] in Oregon on 11/16/09
Pros: Close Shave, Easy to Use, No Irritation, Quiet
Describe Yourself: Clean Cut
Best Uses: Dry Use
Cons: Not Ergonomic
Bottom Line: recommended
I had the Emjoy Opti Pro few a few years previous to this one. I like this one much better. It misses fewer hairs and has not caused ingrown hairs like the last one. It is slightly larger and a little more tricky to operate underarm and hold in my hand, but I'm sure I'll get used to it with more use. I'll hope to never got back to shaving. The carry case and extras that came with are great! Great product, very pleased.
Emjoi Optima Hair Removal System, Model AP-99 rates 4 out of 5 stars, from 60 customer reviews.Still the best option
by Q[Verified Buyer] in Portland, Maine on 11/2/09
Pros: Close Shave, Compact, Easy to Use, No Irritation, Requires Few Strokes
Describe Yourself: Clean Cut
Best Uses: Dry Use
Cons: Noisy, Wears out in 1-2 years
Bottom Line: recommended
I believe this is the 6th Optima I have purchased. I tried upgrading to the newer Emjoi model and was disappointed - it just did not work. Drugstore.com graciously took the unit back and gave me a credit to order another Optima. This model works great - removes hair very effectively without having to go over areas over and over. The only issue I've ever had with it is that after a year or so, I guess it's little plastic gear wheels wear down and the unit stops functioning. But now that the price on the Optima has dropped significantly (used to be around $100) I have less of an issue with buying a new one every couple of years - it's still significantly cheaper than professional waxing.

by HairFree[Verified Buyer] in NC on 9/4/09
Pros: Close Shave, Compact, Easy to Use, No Irritation
Describe Yourself: Clean Cut
Best Uses: Dry Use
Bottom Line: recommended
Works great on legs on armpits. After a few months of use, hair comes in lighter or not at all. The second head is great for touch ups. After 6+ years of use, I only epilate once every 2-3 weeks now.
Emjoi Optima Hair Removal System, Model AP-99 rates 2 out of 5 stars, from 60 customer reviews.on to something else...
by highlighter[Verified Reviewer] in Minnesota on 6/25/09
Pros: Comes with a loofah, Comes with a nice bag, Compact, Easy to clean
Describe Yourself: Clean Cut
Cons: Difficult to Use, Irritates Skin, Misses Hairs, Not Ergonomic
Bottom Line: not recommended
So I must be doing thing horribly wrong or something because this thing absolutely stinks. I exfoliated well for about a week in advance (daily), took a warm bath before hand so the hairs would be easier to get out, and the dang thing took out only about maybe 1/3 of the hair that was on my legs. (and that was after TWO days of multiple tries). Yes, I pulled the skin tight, yes, I did it at a 90 degree angle and didn't press down hard-- I barely touched my leg. I could feel some gentle snatching at the hairs, that's about it. Now I have some messed up legs with nice little red dots (yes I treated with witches hazel/aloe) that won't go away AND I'm still hairy. This thing is so not worth it.

by I hate shaving![Verified Buyer] in Honolulu, Hi on 6/10/09
Describe Yourself: Clean Cut
Bottom Line: recommended
I bought this several years ago from [...] and I really liked it. I still have mine and it works great.... better than shaving :)Drugstore.com had the best prices for this set. Other website you'd have to buy the attachment seperately and it doesnt come in a nice tidy box. [...] At first its REALLY REALLY painful to use, but you definitely get used to the pain. Actually you start liking the feel of the hair pulling out...(gross i know). Now it doesnt even hurt and I get a nice clean no bumpy armpit!! haha. Definitely worth the money. If my emjoi broke today I would get another one immediately... so so so much better than shaving and getting horrible thick coarse hair (gross, sorry again).

by skylap[Verified Buyer] in baltimore,md on 3/11/09
Pros: Easy To Use

great for legs and underamrs, it doesn't work at all on your upper lip, worth it anyway.
Emjoi Optima Hair Removal System, Model AP-99 rates 3 out of 5 stars, from 60 customer reviews.i'm really trying to like this product!
by saffronfrog[Verified Reviewer] in Lincoln NE on 2/25/09
Pros: Easy To Use, Good Value, Reduces Irritation
Describe Yourself: Clean Shaven
Best Uses: Dry Shaving
Hair Texture: Fine Hair
Bottom Line: recommended
I have really tried to like this but it hurts! It feels like each individual hair follicle is being lit on fire! However, the minimal amount that I've tried it, it does remove hairs but not many at a time so it definitely requires multiple tries. And it is less painful than waxing. I will say I DO like the electric shaver option...if nothing else I'm OK with what I spent just to have an electric razor. I mainly wanted it for my bikini line but after trying it on my legs I'm not so sure I want to.

Pros: Easy To Use, Good Value, Smooth
Best Uses: Everyday Use
Hair Texture: Coarse Hair
Bottom Line: recommended
I love how easy it is to use just a lil jarring first time cuz of the noise other than that it works great. It kinda hurts a bit for me cuz my pain threshold is really low but it's way better than waxing. So far I love the results it really does keep me smooth :D

Works very work -- pretty painful at first but comparable to waxing. You can use it frequently to keep areas smooth. Wish I'd found this earlier!
