Trying the NoNo, now. Uh uh. However, if you are well-padded and there is sufficient thickness to your skin, it works pretty well. Those of us with old skin with little or no fat layer, well, sorry ladies. You can find the full-sized models on ebay for less than $50.
So far the best, fastest, and easiest method of becoming bodily clean-shaven for me is to start with an electric hair clipper. Don't set it too close or you'll wind up with little nicks all over. It doesn't get you as clean as a blade razor, and if your body hair is dark the stubble will show. At that point you need to decide, again, how important this is to you.
To remove the remaining stubble I use a portable, battery driven electric razor. For ears where I am most concerned (face and neck) I use a simple disposable razor, the same kind I use on my face. After the first time, a semi-weekly use of the electric or blade razor keeps me hairless.
The thing is, it takes time. I'm impatient, so I'm rarely willing to devote that much time, that frequently. So I mostly remain a guy in a dress, at best. And most of the time I only under-dress, if that.

Re: being shaved....
I dry shave using a 5 bladed razor...but I am quite careful to do so with a very light touch. I just did a little maintenance today, every 3 days or so keeps them smooth to touch. If my legs are dirty or sweaty you must wash them or you will be sorry...no lotion because if you have any knicks you are really going to be sorry. Now the very first shave when you have long leg hairs...yeah get in the warm shower with soap and lather up but and you have to keep rinsing the long clumps of hair off the blade. Easiest way I have found is to use on of the hair removal lotions nair or neet and your legs after waiting about 8 minutes will be absolutely wonderfully smoothe and they will last for days before stubble begins.
Go with the flow
