    I wish my mom had directed me to an epilator when I was a kid. I started using it this month and it's amaaaazing. I was sceptical ad I have very thick hair with lots of ingrowns and super sensitive skin, but I will never shave again. It's a godsend. Great video you really did a good job explaining about the process.

      the hair does remove at the follicle level (the roots as some calls it). whenever the hair is removed at that level, the frequency of hair growth reduces by "# of days", which depends on the thickness/growth of hair. With that said, the ingrown hairs will slowly go away because you're not shaving as frequent.

    I have an original Epilady that I use and I agree it's like anything once you've done it a few times you don't even notice it anymore....kinda like waxing. My mom barely has any hair since she's been using an epilator for 30 yrs...she only tweezes every once in a while ....point being... the longer you use it the less hair you will have in the long run.

    Hey! Very helpful tips in this video! I had looked up a video about hair removal and heard about the epilator. I had never heard about it before. So while I was shopping I came across it! Super surprised at it was only $15 ... I figured at that price I should give it a try. When I checked out I saw my total at go from $5 to $80! The price was marked wrong and they honored it for $15! I got super lucky! I was super psyched to try it! It did hurt! felt like I was electrocuting myself. I pushed through the pain. I was amazed at all the hair that it was pulling out. I know over time the pain will subside and grow finer. :) Im very happy with it!

    I actually just logged into youtube so that I could watch a few videos while epilating, and your video popped up. :) Haha. I love my epilator and agree with everything you said. Shaving sucks. I hated having smooth legs that were covered with red bumps from razor burn. It made me want to cover up and kind of defeats the purpose.

    Shaving since FOURTH grade? !!!
    Got an epilator yesterday, LOVE it! It's a Philips brand. So far, so good! Hurts on underarms a lot more than bikini areas. And on backs of thighs, those hurt too. Otherwise, love it! I'll get used to it. I had the origianl Epilady from the late 80's, that thing with the coiled spring on it> oh my god, that thing was scary and it hurt! I never could use it. These new kind, they are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much better and not painful really. It hurts a lot more to get a tattoo!

    I've been debating about getting an epilator for a while now, mostly because they seem so expensive, so I wasn't sure if it would be worth spending the money on. But, after seeing this video I'm definitely thinking it would be worth a go. I have sensitive skin and I get razor burn so easily so knowing that an epiltor helps with this, I'm definitely going to try it. Thanks! :)

  • @ms3fande
    @ms3fande 4 года назад

    I had one of these in my younger years, I had the Epilady and it also depends on the type of hair you have on your legs as to the pain, if you have really blonde fine hair it doesn't hurt as much, myself, I have very coarse dark hair and it hurts like %^&*. I tried it for about a month and finally gave it up, I couldn't stand the pain and I have a very high pain tolerance. So good luck to the females out there who have very fine blonde hair, this may be good for you but for those of you like myself with dark coarse hair, wish you the best. It HURTS.

    I had one of those epilators for a long time now.
    But it doesn't work for me that well because my hairs are very thin and almost invisible.
    (pale skin - white hairs) I have problem seeing them and have to do my epilation with sun light or special halogen lamp. It doesn't hurt because hairs are very week, but because of that I had a lot of ingrown hairs which made scars on my legs when I tried to take them out and had to go back to shaving. :( It took a while, but my leg's skin is in good condition now.
    Unfortunately it didn't work for me, but I had to share since it might help someone.

    • @mrsme4941
      @mrsme4941 6 лет назад +4

      If your hair is breaking off instead of being completely pulled out by the root it could be that your hair is too long. I would shave and wait 3 days and then epilate.

    • @ZAXN
      @ZAXN 6 лет назад +3

      You must exfoliate before and after. Take a hot shower so that the steam will open up the pores so epilating will be convenient. Also moisturize legs to keep pores clean, healthy and closed up to prevent ingrown hairs.

    • @mirawenya
      @mirawenya 6 лет назад

      Took less time than waxing, with better results for me. I exfoliate always 2 days before, and make sure I’m warm clean and comfy. I also exfoliate a few days later when it starts to itch. No issues for me. But got the best epilator according to numerous tests, so might be why.

      @@mirawenya I'm a boy, and I'm developing a good, fit, healthy and muscular physique. I'm a teen so my confidence and how I present myself is important to me as a teenager so I can impress girls. Hope u understand that. Anyways I'm wondering if it's ok for a man to epilate. I'm not too hairy as of now but when I hit adulthood I'm pretty sure I'm going to be super hairy as I can tell. Is it safe for me to epilate my stomach, legs, thighs, chest, back, shoulders, biceps and arms. Being smoith and clean is my priority in maintaining a sexy body. Since I assume you are a girl may you please give your opinions on this and help me. Thanks!

      You can use it in the armpits and works amazing; last until 2 or 3 times for the hair grown back. I love it! i used to shave my whole body every three days for smooth skin, but when i spend a little extra cash on a epilator, i do it now every month, and dont get any razor burns o ingrown hair

      I used to wax but this is just easier and no mess.
