When it comes to removing body hair, shaving is the ultimate quick-fix. But it can become frustrating when stubble begins to appear after only one to two days. If you want to enjoy hair-free, smooth skin for longer lengths of time, it’s time that you learn how to use an epilator. Unlike shaving, epilating removes hair from the root, providing you with weeks of smooth skin. Correct epilator use is important if you want to know how to epilate without pain. Equip yourself to avoid any epilator pain and reap the benefits that this hair removal method offers with this helpful guide. We will walk you through epilating for the first time and answer common questions such as ‘how does an epilator work?’ and ‘do epilators hurt?”Once you know the ins and outs of epilator use, you may never want to shave again!
How does an epilator work?
First thing’s first: how does an epilator work? An epilator is a device made with rotating discs that grip the hair and pull them out from the roots. This is very similar to waxing, except epilating is less messy and doesn’t require any other items other than the epilator device.
The benefits of epilating are plenty. Results differ from person to person, but overall, epilating gives you smoother results that last longer than other hair removal methods. Another benefit is that it can remove shorter hair. With waxing, for example, you usually have to wait until the hair is long enough before removing it. But many epilators can remove shorter hairs because they don’t press the hair against the skin like waxing does. Additionally, epilation may be a long-term solution for gradual hair reduction. If you continue to use an epilator, you may find that your hair grows softer and finer and at a slower rate than with shaving or other hair removal techniques.
How to use an epilator
You’re probably now wondering ‘do epilators hurt?’ It’s true that they can be a bit uncomfortable at first, but with correct epilator use, it doesn’t have to be painful. To reduce any epilator pain, we recommend epilating in the shower. The warm water helps to open the pores, which will make it easier and less uncomfortable to remove hair.
