Just what exactly is an epilator? It is the most efficient of hair removal gadgets and even though it is an older idea they keep improving the device so it gets better and better.
To epilate something is just “removing hair” from something. We are talking about the greatest gadget of the twentieth century –“electric tweezers.”
Although technically they are tweezers these gadgets have evolved a great deal over the past few years. For one thing they really do not look like tweezers because of all of the coils set in their plastic casing. They look more like razors.
Basically there are three types of epilators –the spring type, the rotating disc type and the tweezer type and all three types are meeting with new evolutions every day.
If you remember the Epilady then you already know what the spring type look like.. This hair epilator, which was invented in Isreal in 1986 , features a curved coiled spring embedded with a motor that helps expand and contract the coils. The coils flex when the unit is one and effective catch and pull the hair out by the root. Similar units are the Braun epilator and the Emjoi Epilator.
Newer hair removal gadgets like this have coin shaped coils instead of curved bows. Remington is the main manufacturer of this type of hair removal device…
The epilators known as tweezers are actually also very similar in design to the original Epilady. However the rotating disc design is designed so that the plates in the machine or no longer complete discs but a series of metal pieces that grind together to perform a tweezing effect on the hair. The creates a continuous cycle of gripping, extracting and discarding the hair.
Experience users think curved coil spring types of electric hair removers are better to the tweezer type as the tweezer type sometimes does not manage to completely pull out the hair. Sometimes it snaps the hair off and stubble results. This is no better than shaving and can look very unattractive.
However all of the different types of epilators can actually fail for one reason or another and you can end up with patches where the hair has simply been shortened and not removed. The problem is that the hair has to be long enough to pull out in the first place. The fact that the hair is pulled out by the root and that it will not work unless the hair is long enough is what makes this hair removal method so similar to waxing.
