HAIRLICIOUSLY Dr.Pen Review

 This is a microneedling device review.  This device is a automated microneedling machine.  It is supposed to be an alternative to the dermaroller.  I like the idea of it because it allows for adjusting of the needle length.  So that you can start with small needles and then gradually increase to the length.  Also the needles are straight vs the angled needles on the dermaroller.  The angled needles on the dermaroller supposedly cause tearing of the skin while the straight needles on the Hairliciously dr.pen are supposed to cause less damage to the skin.  Also it is supposed to be faster and easier to use then the dermaroller. 

I bought 2 of these.  One for myself and one for someone else.  The one I got for myself lasted about 4 months before the button broke rendering it unable to be turned on. It is pretty useless so I threw it away.  I paid about $150 for this.  I am honestly disappointed that it did not even last a year.  

The other one I bought for someone else the person gave it back to me cuz they chickened out on using needles on themselves.  So I thought great I have a fast replacement.  I bought this one on sale because I got an email advertising a discount.  This one lasted a month and the button broke tonight on my scheduled use so now I have to take a break from microneedling while I try to grab a new device.  

I would not recommend The Hairliciously dr.pen because it is very fragile.  I did not even drop it or misuse it and it still broke.  It is a very unreliable device.  I will be grabbing another brand of microneedling device and will update on the future on whether it is good or bad.   

On the bright side the batteries that come with are fantastic.  I got numerous uses out it before I had to throw it on the charger. 

BTW if you would like to know more about the dermaroller and/or microneedling (or what it is supposed to do) I recommend you google it.  My personal preferences for information on this topic is perfecthairhealth.com and hairguard,  as well as youtube channels more plates more dates, kerotin brotherhood. 

Lastly while I do not like this product I do like Hairliciously's youtube channel and I find it very informative and entertaining and it will help shed some light on the subject of microneedling for you in addition to those other sources I named. 

I have not purchased any other products from Hairliciously so it is also possible that his other products are good but Idk for sure.
