Epilator : What is it?
| An epilator is a hair removal device that thwarts hair regrowth by removing body hair from the roots. It uses tweezer discs that rotate in different speeds to provide faster, tweezer-like hair removal action for underarms, bikini lines, arms, legs, and eyebrows.

Speed: Choose an epilator with adjustable speeds that allow you to control the tweezing action. A slow speed is ideal for removing thin hairs and those in difficult-to-reach and bony body parts such as bikini lines. Use a faster speed on large body areas such as the legs and thighs, which are prone to thicker hair growth.
Portability: For travel use, choose a battery operated epilator that allows you to use it without electricity.
Skin protector: If you have sensitive skin, choose an epilator with a built-in skin protector that provides a gentler epilating action to prevent skin irritation.
Shaving head: For use in delicate skin areas such as bikini lines and underarms, choose an epilator with an optional shaving head.
Built-in features: Look for an epilator with a built-in shaver and hair trimmer that give you the option to remove leg hair by shaving or by epilating.
Accessories: Choose an epilator that comes with cleaning brushes that remove stuck hairs in between the tweezer discs. Look for one that comes with a loofah pad that inhibits the growth of ingrown hair.
