THE ADVANTAGES OF AN EPILATOR AGAINST SHAVING AND WAXING
Posted by Manny Y on 6th Apr 2015
An epilator is a hair removal device that removes hair by grasping several hairs at a time and pulling them out by the roots. It works like a tweezer but instead of pulling hair one by one, the epilator pulls out several hairs at once because it has several tweezer-like protrusions on its head , grasping and pulling hair out with every rotation.
An epilator looks like an electric razor, except for the head of course, and using it is just the same. Just pass the epilator on the areas of unwanted hair, just like you would with an electric shaver. The slower you pass the epilator, the better it pulls the hair out.Also, it doesn’t use any sharp blades therefore, eliminating the risk of get nicks, razor burns or razor bumps.
What’s great about epilators is that they’re maintenance-free because they don’t have any parts that wear. It only needs some cleaning before or after use. Epilators always come with a small brush to take out all the hairs that have been pulled out.
Some say that using an epilator is painful. Well, it really depends on the person’s threshold to pain. If you had a wax treatment before, then you have a basic idea how the pain is and reduce that to, let’s say . . . a lot! The pain with an epilator is much, much less than waxing. You actually get used to the pain after several tries.
