I am currently tweezing both feet and using Kalo on the right one. It's only been slightly more than two weeks so I obviously can't see any results yet, but maybe in two months or so I'll give you an update. Even if it doesn't work I'll just get my money back.
Quarterman, they didn't answer your question because that's not what the product is intended for.
And no, Jon does not work for Nisim. I'm 99.9 percent sure, just from reading the posts he makes on the Nisim message board. [ June 05, 2002, 02:12 AM: Message edited by: Malanagaster ]

Welcome, Melanagaster! Definitely keep us posted over the next year!
I agree that I think almost everyone so far on the board is on the up and up, including Jon. We had someone from one of the quack boards here early on, but they don't seem to post any more.
As I've said, I am very glad to have consumers of hair inhibitors posting here. We'll try to be more specific about consumer experiences here, compared to the quack forums.

That message does look a little suspicious, Quaterman. It sounds like one of those "testimonials" you see on late night infomercials.
I really hope that you're wrong, though. That's a pretty dirty way to sell something, although it's probably very effective.
Still, I'm convinced that most, if not all, of the posters on the Kalo message board are legit. The true test is whether the results they are seeing can last.

Hey, I'm glad I found this site, it's very informative. But, from the looks of it, you(as in the webmaster) haven't even tried most of these products so I'm unsure as to whether you should be giving them such a bad rep? Are you the ultimate skeptic? (I don't mean to be rude, but in my lifetime I've seen many people say "That can't be possible" only for them to see first hand results, ultimately changing their whole idealism of such issues).
Although, I don't really feel like being ripped off, I'm still open to trying products before saying they're worthless - Due to the fact that I cannot stand hair, and hate wasting time removing it. With that said, I definitely want something that will work. I'm new to the whole hair inhibitor theory, it seems too great to be true, but am willing to give it a try. From the looks of it "Kalo" is a possibility? I had given serious consideration to "Ultra Hair Away", but their sites are filled with so much hype, and such big promises, that it does make me wonder, and having you point out all of their mirror sites makes it seem a little shady.
Here's where I stand on hair removal - I've tried depilatory lotions such as "Nair", which of course, do not work, smells horrific, burns my sensitive skin, and should not be sold, unless people want to use it as a smelly air fresherner(some people have bad smell fetishes). I hate shaving, it's so futile, the hair grows back immediately, it's so time consuming, razor burn, nicks, cuts, scars, headache. Waxing, can you say "self inflicted pain"? Then you have to wait for the hair to grow out enough for you to re-yank it out, yay? Tweezing - I don't mind doing my eye brows with this, but it does hurt like hell, and makes my eyes water. The only thing I like about this, is looking at the root, after a highly successful yank, hahahaha. As for any other part of the body, it's too much pain, and would take forever, & I haven't even bothered trying(probably because I'm not completely brain dead, but who knows what those depilatory lotions have done to my valuable brain cells). So along comes the info, that there's supposedly a product that gradually makes hair growth non existent, I must say the whole idea is thrilling, I only hope it works. I will research it further and try to find out if there's something extraordinary out there, that I have missed.
Well, thanks to all who've shared their stories about various products. If I get around to trying something, I will come back here and tell you all about my progress, or therefore lack of.
Goodluck to each of you in your search of finding the miracle product that will forever remove this wretched hair.

I think a product like Kalo is definitely worth a shot. It has a money back guarantee so you have nothing to lose. Most of the messages on their board have been positive, so I think that Kalo has some effect on the hair.
However, lately I've been doubting its "permanent" results. It just seems a little hard to believe that a nonpresciption herbal cream could have a permanent effect. Nisim also sells a shampoo that stops hairloss, and an extract that will regrow hair. A small Canadian company has discovered an end to hirsutism and male pattern baldness? That seems pretty unbelievable to me.
Well, whatever, I'm still going to try it and hope for the best. [ June 08, 2002, 07:46 AM: Message edited by: Malanagaster ]

Welcome Jaclyn!
As I've mentioned before, I had a sample of Kalo sent to me by the manufacturer, and I saw no difference in hair growth. It's been well over a year, and there is no change whatsoever in the hair in the treated area.
Here's my philosophy in all this: I expect salespeople to back their claims with proof. If a company says some topical product causes permanent hair removal, I want to see the published studies or the government approval. In the case of Kalo and Ultra Hair Away, there are no published studies.
I don't think you have to try something to say "prove it." If someone claimed they built a car that gets 500 miles to the gallon, I don't think I need to go try one out to say "prove it."
In legal terms, it's called burden of proof. The burden of proof is on the manufacturer to prove their claims. In the case of Kalo and Ultra Hair Away, they haven't met my threshold for proof.
I'm not saying it impossible. I'm saying prove it. I haven't seen any first-hand reports of consumers who have no regrowth one year after using Kalo or Ultra Hair Away. In fact, I haven't seen anyone who didn't have complete regrowth one year after stopping using these products.
