Global Electrolysis Supply This disreputable company markets extensively on the web and
through a mail-order catalog. Their slogan, "the most respected
name in epilation cosmetology," couldn't be much further
from the truth.
Global Electrolysis Supply should
be avoided by all consumers.
2002 update: Due to the high number of  reports from
angry customers, I have been getting lots of new information,
including step-by-step accounts of how
they will rip you off. I've expanded this section to over
a dozen pages, including full text of their hard-to-find disclaimer.
Just click on a link below for more information.

boxes all over North America and Europe.
