Kenzzi Reviews, Usage Guide, & Better Alternatives

Kenzzi is a popular IPL hair removal device brand in the US market, known for amazing hair removal effects using IPL technology. The overall designs, features, and pricing make it attractive to potential buyers. It has direct competition with top brands like Ulike, Braun, Philips, etc. in the American market.

This article aims to offer elaborated Kenzzi reviews along with a better alternative to IPL hair removal devices such as Ulike. The article also aims to help users get a better idea of the IPL products in the market before purchasing one.

An Overview of Kenzzi Hair Removal

Kenzzi claims a full body hair removal session of no more than 9 minutes. Furthermore, Kenzzi hair removal devices are nearly painless, which attracts potential buyers. One can benefit from the innovative glide mode to avoid pressing the flash button manually and automating the flashes. Kenzzi offers ultra fast flashes, which can speed up one’s hair removal session.

How to Use Kenzzi to Remove Unwanted Hair?

Preparation

Shave the treatment area or areas where you use Kenzzi, doing it before a few hours is suggested. This is an essential part before you use any IPL devices. However, Exfoliate your skin 3 days prior to the treatment taking place. It helps in reducing the chances of any skin irritation or discomfort.

Core Process

To get silky-smooth skin, you will need to hold the device in a suitable angle which will make the device lay flat against your skin. While positioned directly above the hair follicles, start pressing the flash button. Start gliding it on your skin carefully and continue until you are done.

Aftercare

After you have finished the treatment, let your skin cool off for the following minutes before moisturizing and hydrating your skin with moisturizing creams or less harsh moisturizers. Avoid the sun for the next 48 hours, or protect your skin with sunscreen.

How Often to Use Kenzzi?

One should frequently use Kenzzi 2-3 times per week for optimal results and consistent smoothness of the skin. Some users may have extreme hair growth,  and need to use it more than 3 times. While, others may not use it more than 2 times.

Does Kenzzi Work?

Yes, Kenzzi indeed works. The product has a long list of satisfied customers. People with a high difference between their hair color and skin tones often see better results quickly, while those with dark skin may have difficulties in achieving hair removal effects from Kenzzi.

Factors Affecting The Kenzzi Results

1.      Skin Tones And Hair Color

One should understand that IPL devices are effective and efficient on certain skin tones and hair colors. Those with light skin tones and dark hair colors will find results more effective. Furthermore, the darker the hair and lighter the skin, the better the results.

2.      Genetic Factors

Kenzzi’s effectiveness may also include the genetic factors and frequency setting. For example, if an individual suffers from PCOS they may experience the effectiveness of this device only lasting a few days.

3.      Frequency Setting

The flash intensity setting can affect the results that Kenzzi offers. A person using the device on a low intensity setting may see less effectiveness, while one using it at a high intensity can experience better results. One needs to gradually increase the intensity settings to find out the best setting for their skin.

‘Brand New Key’ Singer Melanie Dead at 76

Melanie, the singer of ‘Brand New Key’ and ‘Lay Down (Candles in the Rain)’ who performed at the Woodstock festival in 1969, has died. The singer’s children – Leilah, Jeordie, and Beau Jarred – shared then news in a message on Facebook on Wednesday. A cause of death has not been disclosed. Melanie was 76 years old.

Born in 1947 in Astoria, New York, Melanie studied at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts and began her career singing in the folk clubs of Greenwich Village. She signed to Columbia Records in the US and released two singles on the label before signing with Buddah Records, which issued her debut album, Born to Be, in 1968. She first found chart success in Europe in 1969 with ‘Bobo’s Party’, which reached No. 1 in France. She was one of only three solo female artists who performed at Woodstock, an experience that inspired her first hit in America, ‘Lay Down (Candles in the Rain)’.

“I had never performed in front of so many people in my life,” she told Rolling Stone in 1989. “I was just thrown into it, and I had my first out-of-body experience. I was terrified, I had to leave. I started walking across that bridge to the stage, and I just left my body, going to a side, higher view. I watched myself walk onto the stage, sit down and sing a couple of lines. And when I felt it was safe, I came back. It started to rain right before I went on. Ravi Shankar had just finished up his performance, and the announcer said that if you lit candles, it would help to keep the rain away. By the time I finished my set, the whole hillside was a mass of little flickering lights. I guess that’s one of the reasons I came back to my body.”

Melanie went on to start her own label, Neighborhood Records. She continued releasing records throughout her career, including Ballroom Streets (1978), Arabesque (1982), Am I Real Or What (1985), Precious Cargo (1991), Old Bitch Warrior (1995), and Ever Since You Never Heard Of Me (2010). Earlier this month, she was in the studio working on a compilation of covers called Second Hand Smoke, which would have marked her 32nd studio LP.

“We are heartbroken, but want to thank each and every one of you for the affection you have for our Mother, and to tell you that she loved all of you so much!” Leilah, Jeordie, and Beau Jarred wrote in their statement, continuing:

She was one of the most talented, strong and passionate women of the era and every word she wrote, every note she sang reflected that. Our world is much dimmer, the colors of a dreary, rainy Tennessee pale with her absence today, but we know that she is still here, smiling down on all of us, on all of you, from the stars.” The cause of death has not been disclosed.

Our world is much dimmer, the colors of a dreary, rainy Tennessee pale with her absence today, but we know that she is still here, smiling down on all of us, on all of you, from the stars.

We ask tonight, Wednesday January 24th, at 10pm central time, each of you lights a candle in honor of Melanie. Raise, raise them high, high up again. Illuminate the darkness, and let us all be connected in remembrance of the extraordinary woman who was wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend to so very many people.

We are planning a Celebration of Life for Mom and it will be open to all of you who want to come and celebrate her. The details will be announced as soon as they are in place. We look forward to seeing you there.

At this time please allow us, her family, privacy as we grieve for her, remember her, and figure out how to navigate this crazy world without her.

Thank you all for your love – you meant so very much to her.

15 Memorable Quotes from Oppenheimer (2023)

One of the best films of 2023, Oppenheimer follows the story of New York-born scientist J. Robert Oppenheimer and his crucial role in developing the devastating atomic bomb, also known under the name of the Manhattan Project.

As one of the most masterful pieces created by director Christopher Nolan, Oppenheimer delivered a formidable challenge to its summer rival Barbie when it got nominated for thirteen Oscars, including for Best Achievement in Directing for Christopher Nolan, which Greta Gerwig missed out on.

Here are the best quotes from Oppenheimer.

  1. Caption: Prometheus stole fire from the gods and gave it to man. For this he was chained to a rock and tortured for eternity.
  2. Lewis Strauss: Amateurs seek the sun. Get eaten. Power stays in the shadows.
  3. J. Robert Oppenheimer: Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.
  4. J. Robert Oppenheimer: They won’t fear it until they understand it. And they won’t understand it until they’ve used it. Theory will take you only so far.
  5. J. Robert Oppenheimer: Since when are you British? Klaus Fuchs: Since Hitler told me I wasn’t German.
  6. J. Robert Oppenheimer: I don’t know if we can be trusted with such a weapon. But I know the Nazis can’t.
  7. Albert Einstein: When they’ve punished you enough, they’ll serve you salmon and potato salad, make speeches, give you a medal, and pat you in the back telling all is forgiven. Just remember, it won’t be for you… it would be for them.
  8. Kitty Oppenheimer: You don’t get to commit sin, and then ask all of us to feel sorry for you when there are consequences.
  9. Niels Bohr: Is it big enough? J. Robert Oppenheimer: To end the war? Niels Bohr: To end all war.
  10. Kitty Oppenheimer: You think because you let them tar and feather you that the world will forgive you? They won’t.
  11. J. Robert Oppenheimer: Mr. President. I feel that I have blood on my hands.
  12. Lewis Strauss: Genius is no guarantee of wisdom. How could this man who saw so much be so blind?
  13. Niels Bohr: You are the man who gave them the power to destroy themselves. And the world is not prepared.
  14. Isidor Rabi: You drop a bomb, and it falls on the just and the unjust. I don’t wish the culmination of three centuries of physics to be a weapon of mas
  15. Edward Teller: Would the Japanese surrender if they knew what was coming?s destruction.

Justice Announce New Album ‘Hyperdrama’, Enlist Tame Impala for New Song

Justice – the French duo of Xavier de Rosnay and Gaspard Augé – have announced their first album in nearly eight years. Hyperdrama lands on April 26(via Ed Banger/Because Music. Today’s announcement comes with the release of two songs: ‘One Night/All Night’, featuring Tame Impala, and ‘Generator’. Below, you can check out director Anton Tammi‘s video for ‘Hyperdrama’, listen to ‘Generator’, and find Hyperdrama‘s cover art (by Thomas Jumin).

Commenting on ‘One Night/All Night’, Justice said in a statement: “This is Kevin [Parker] singing. This is the touchstone of this record. Like okay, let’s make a song that’s all techno, then all disco, and then it’s all techno again. It’s a bit like when you have wine that doesn’t fit well with what you’re doing and they’re fighting for attention but it still tastes good.”

Of ‘Generator’, they added: “To us, this one sounds like ‘Getaway’ by the Salsoul Orchestra, but with gabber and classic ‘90s techno sounds. We love all kinds of music that don’t really appear in Justice. But I would say that the main two types of music that coexist in Justice since the beginning are disco funk and more electronic music. And particularly on Generator we make them coexist, but not really in a peaceful way. We like this idea of making them fight a bit for attention.”

Tammi said of the ‘One Night/All Night’ clip: “I suggested to them that what if we dive in? What if their music video was a journey inside the cross? I dreamed of creating a piece like this. A strange and experimental object that looks like rave lighting inside human lungs and strobe light around a human heart.”

Fabiana Palladino Announces Debut Album, Releases New Song

Fabiana Palladino has announced her self-titled debut album, which is set for release on April 5 via Paul Institute and XL Recordings. The 10-track LP features contributions from Jai Paul, Rob Moose, drummer Steve Ferrone, and Palladino’s father and brother, bassists Pino and Rocco Palladino. Check out a video for the new single ‘Stay With Me Through the Night’ below, and scroll down for the album artwork and tracklist.

Discussing the album, Palladino said in a statement:

A central theme of the album is aloneness. Whether it’s a song where ’m searching for connection with someone else, or trying to embrace the aloneness, it tends to come back to me, who I am when I’m alone, what I feel when I really look inwards. I’d say it’s a pretty introspective record overall. The songs are often about trying to go deeper into yourself, exploring your true feelings and how they then relate to and affect your relationships with others.

“Stay With Me Through The Night” is the first song I wrote for the album. It was at the end of a tricky period where I hadn’t written music for nearly two years, and it came out in a bit of a flood, I barely even remember where or how I wrote it, but I knew it was going to be an important song for me. It ended up being the centrepiece of the album, a song that encapsulates a lot of the feeling and emotion of the rest of the record and musically it brings old together with new, which became a theme across the record…a way of combining my influences with a modern perspective.

Rhythmically the feeling of the song comes from funk and disco, I was thinking about the piano playing of Patrice Rushen and Michael McDonald, Chaka Khan’s ‘What Cha’ Gonna Do For Me’, Bernard Edwards bass playing on Chic’s ‘Good Times’, and The Bee Gees ‘Spirits Having Flown’ but we tried to take the track somewhere else in other aspects of the production to bring out the big feelings in the song. It situates us in the emotional world that I tried to create for the rest of the album.

Fabiana Palladino Tracklist:

1. Closer
2. Can You Look In The Mirror?
3. I Can’t Dream Anymore
4. Give Me A Sign
5. I Care

7. Shoulda

9. In The Fire
