Enjoy silky smooth legs and skin: clear info how to choose the hair removal epilator that suits your needs best.

 

Types of hair removal elipators

 

Hair removal epilators are elecrical devices to remove hair by grasping and pulling out multiple hairs simultaneously. There are 3 types of hair removal epilators:

 

1. Epilady : spring type epilator
    
2. Lady Remington Smooth and Silky : rotating disc type epilator
    
3. tweezer type epilator

 

Electric tweezers however remove only one hair at a time. Their branding names are confusing:

 

• electrolysis tweezer epilator or
   
• tweezer epilator.

 

Unlike epilators, these tweezers pull out only 1 hair at a time and simultaneously turn on a high frequency electrical signal to stop hair growth from the root in a manner similar to electrolysis.

 

1. Epilady’s: spring type epilator

 

Epilady hair removal epilator from 1986

 

A rotating spring causes the hairs to be pulled out. Epilady was the first ever made hair removal epilator. When the rotating spring fails to pull out your hairs well, you need to replace it.

 

Epilady’s spring type epilator is no more manufactured. When you buy an Epilady today, it will most likely be a tweezer type epilator:

2. Lady Remington Smooth and Silky : rotating disc type epilator

 

 

The Lady remington hair removal epilator was very similar as the Elipady but used metal discs in stead of a spring.

 

3. Tweezer type epilator

Based on the design of the Lady Remingon Smooth and Silky but this time like with a tweezer, 2 plates will open and close. Once a hair gets captured between 2 plates, it will be pulled out.

 

Only a few strong hairs will not be pulled out but will snap off just above the skin.

 

Why using a hair removal epilator.

 

Epilators pull the hair out at the root. Hair will not return to the surface of the skin for several days up to several weeks, leaving the skin smooth and silky.

 

An epilator stands between shaving and waxing:

 

• shaving will only cut the hairs and leave the roots intact to grow more hair: which will be noticed sometimes eventhe same day
   
• epilators remove your hair slowly without removing cells from the epithelium of the epidermis
   
• waxing removes cells from the epithelium of the epidermis and the pain from removing a big ptach of wax in an instant can be extremely chocking

 

Epilators are cheap and easy to use in the comfort of your own home. Laser hair removal does guarantee a permanent hair removal system but is only adviceable for those who can fork out the money and time to have a doctor removing unwanted hair:

Good epilators can be used anywhere you want to remove unwanted hair. They should have different speed settings to provide adequate hair removal for the arms, legs, back, underarms, bikini lines, and even eyebrows.

 

How to better use a hair removal epilator

 

All epilators work when you roll the devise across the surface of the skin where your unwanted hair is growing.

 

Inside the epilator are “pinching” devises that pinch anything that they come into contact with, including even the smallest hairs. Once the hair is pinched, the epilator continues to roll across your skin, pulling out the hair.

 

Expert tips for using your epilator:

 

• use your epilator after a hot bath or shower. Thanks to the heat your pores will expand so that the hairs are easier and less painful to remove
   
• move the epilator slowly BBBin the direction of the hair growth. Slowly so it more time to grasp and remove more hairs. Thighten your skin for best results
   
• after using the epilator:
   
• use mineral oil to soothen your skin. Do not use lotions with chemical agents that can lead to rashes and skin irritations.
   
• wipe your epilator clean from any hair

 

How to choose your hair removal epilator

 

There are battery-powered and electric epilators.

 

• electric epilators are powerfull and suited for home use. Some models use rechargeable batteries: best of both worlds!
   
• cordless battery-powered epilators are very convenient to use if you travel a lot. Ideal for removing hair on the underarms, bikini line, face, and legs.

 

Find the epilator that suits you best:

 

• You need different Speed! Choose an epilator with adjustable speeds to control tweezing:
   
• fast speed is suited on large body areas such as the legs and thighs, which are prone to thicker hair growth
   
• slow speed is ideal for removing thin hairs or hairs in difficult-to-reach / bony body parts like bikini lines
   
• Portability?: for travel use, choose a rechargeable electric or battery operated epilator
  
  Cordless
  Elipator
   
• Sensitive Skin?: choose an epilator with a built-in skin protector preventing skin irritation due to a gentler epilating approach
   
• Look for extra features:
   
• a good cleaning brush to remove stuck hairs in between the tweezer discs
   
• some epilators provide a built-in shaver, shaver head and hair trimmer to give you the option to remove hair by shaving or by epilating
   
• a loofah exfoliating pad inhibits the growth of ingrown hair
