Epilady Questions and Reviews
Question:
I have used an Epilady coil epilator for ten years. Even though it still works well, I'm
considering to have a new model. Could you tell me more about your new epilator?
Answer:
In 1986, EPILADY
launched the first electric hair remover, and secured its leading
position in the market of hair removal within a short period.
The first generation of Epilady used rotating coils to grasp hair and pull it out by the root.
With a big success on removing hair, it also comes with some disadvantages. After a
couple of years, the tension in the coil drops, and therefore it does
not work as well as before. Another drawback was that the coil caused
some pinching of the skin with many users.
Now Epilady deploys a new technology, rotating rows of tweezers, and develops a new line of
epilators, including a rechargeable epilator Legend, Epic, corded Epic Chic, and Duet with epilating and shaving heads.
The Epilady Legend, and all the new line of Epilators from Epilady removes the hair better, or at least as well, as the original coil units. Basically, the
new line does the same thing as the old coil epilators, namely grabbing
the hair and tearing the out by the root, but it does it in a different
way. Instead of a coil closing in on the hairs, pairs of tweezers do it.
In fact, the feedback we are getting from the old coil users is that it
causes less discomfort and works better than the old model, before they replaced it.
Back by popular demand, the Epilady launches a new facial hair epilator with its famous coil-epilation system, Esthetic, which is specifically designed for use on fine facial hair.
Question:
I've used your new Epilady Legend for a few times, but found it's not very effective. Any tips?
Answer:
The epilator head is comprised of little tweezers that open and close. The head will spin, tweezers will open, grab the hair, close, and pull the hair from the root. The tweezers all close at one point on the head. While the machine is turned off, spin the head with a finger, and you will see the tweezers open and closing.
If the machine isn't held at the correct angle where the tweezers close and clamp down on the hair, the hairs are cut, not going to be removed.
How to find the correct angle: hold the machine so that the head is touching the skin and the machine is being held straight up in the air. Then you need to tilt the machine just a little towards you. It will then be held at an 80 degree angle. No longer at a 90 degree angle.
