    Default Epiladies here?

    Ahahaha.

    Anyone here epilate rather than shaving? I've been at it for 6 months or so and love it. Haven't worked up to doing the pubic zone though

    I started with the pubic zone. Actually, I started yesterday. I bought the braun silk epi exell after reading about it on here that it hurt less than epilady. I thank whoever posted to do it after a shower so the hairs come out easier. That helped so much! Just make sure your skin is completely dry before you start. And I had to do little sections of the pube area at a time starting with the top. When you get lower and the epilator starts to pull back when grabbing a lot of hairs I use my fingers as a barrier, and this helps a lot and holding the skin taut also reduced the pain a bit.

    So far I've only done the vajay, but I may try others. I only bought it because I'm single again and I remember how irritating it can be to have that couple hours of regrowth rubbing you the wrong way when your trying to enjoy getting it on. Can you tell I'm hoping for some action here?

    I epilate. Attempting the pubic area scares me though.

    I have an older model (5 yrs. or so). It is excruciating on the vag & pit area, no waay. I do use it on my legs. Noticed on QVC, they had a narrower one, seemed more geared to use in those areas, they claim it can be used w/o pain on the face.

    I bought the Braun Silk Epil and I use it on my legs and armpits. I can barely get through those areas... I am scared to even go near the bikini area.

    I have a knarly old Remington epilator that grabs skin sometimes. Ooooowwwww. I'll buy a new one soon.

    (I have 1-2 drinks while sitting in a hot bath before I epilate. Helps a whole lot with the whole ordeal.)

    ^^^ also 1 tylenol half hour before you epilate/wax can do miracles!

    Does epilating pull the hair out? What does it do exactly?

    And is the purpose of doing it to minimize regrowth? Does it slow hair growth down?

    It's like a bunch of rotating tweezers that pull the hair out by the root. It should make regrowth finer and more sparse.

    Hello, first ever post! I have an epilator called emjoi and it is the best thing ever! I paid $40 for it 3 years ago and it is stil going strong. It works faster than the other ones I've tried, and it grabs all the really short hairs. I use it everywhere, even underarms, but for some reason I can't use it on my thighs. I have a real problem with body hair and it gets crazy expensive to keep on buying waxstrips. It has saved me so much time and money over the years! Hope this helps!
