FAQ

You use an epilator to remove hair in various areas of your body. It’s an electrical device that has multiple “mini” tweezers in it that pull out your hairs. It has a similar effect to waxing, as it removes the hair directly from the roots.

It’s recommended to exfoliate your skin before using an epilator, this can prevent painful and irritating ingrown hairs. Put the epilator at a 90-degree angle against your skin, this provides the best contact with your hairs. Make sure to not press it, but hold it gently against the area you’re working on. Stretch your skin with your other hand and run the epilator in short strokes in the opposite direction of hair growth.

Pretty much any hair on your body except for the hair on your head is good for an epilator. If you’re planning on using it on thicker hair like pubic hair or thick facial hair, it’s a good idea to invest in one that is specially designed for thicker hair.

3 things to consider when buying an epilator

Most epilators can be used in wet conditions, like in the shower or bath. But double-check this before buying. Using an epilator during a shower can make the process less uncomfortable, so it’s nice to have a device that's waterproof.

When you start shopping for epilators, you'll notice that there's a wide range of prices available. This is mainly because of the accessories that come with them. So, it's best to decide in advance which body areas you want to epilate:

  • For legs, you can go for a basic epilator without extra attachments.

  • For underarms and bikini line, you'll need a smaller nozzle that's gentler. These areas have more sensitive skin.

  • Some epilators come with a facial brush for cleansing and massage – perfect for facial hair removal.

  • You can find epilators that include a rotating foot file for smooth feet.

There are 3 types of epilators: battery-powered, rechargeable, and corded. The rechargeable one is the most popular, and it's also safe to use in wet environments. But always double-check these specifications before you make a purchase.
