    Do electric hair removal tweeze methods really work, and if so, which one would you recommend?

    By Yvonne Dueno | October 15, 2007

    Question: Do electric hair removal tweeze methods really work, and if so, which one would you recommend?

     

    Answer: I want to be as honest as I possibly can concerning the hair removal tweeze methods available to us through television, ad marketing and the internet. We have seen the many types of hair removal tweezers come and go since their inception. One notorious brand is the Epilady Tweezer that has endured the test of time although honestly I don’t how or why. Hair removal tweezers have fallen short of any glory in my book if you ask me and since you have, allow me to elaborate.

    How does it work?

    Hair removal tweezers are electric tweezers that use high frequency electric signals to supposedly permanently remove hair. They are designed with a tweezer like tip that sends an electric signal from the hair tip down to the root that would hopefully weaken the follicle much like an electrolysis effect. Think about this scenario for just a moment. Each individual hair has to be effectively pulled while directing the electric signal down the shaft and into the root while simultaneously pressing on a switch like button. Believe me this is just as hard it sounds. This is probably why the FDA has rendered them useless as a permanent hair removal system and has officially stated that they are more likening to an old fashion every day tweezer.

    If you are determined to take the time to apply this system correctly, and I do mean TIME, then this alternative may be the way to go. As far as what brand to use, I will suggest you use the Epilady Legend Epilator. This brand has pioneered the concept and I believe that it must have some truth to its claims. Make sure you buy something with a money back guaranty and use the hell out of it to see if it really works for you. If this option proves to be a dead end, there are always the good old fashion laser or electrolysis methods. Good Luck!

    Product Reviews

    I bought an Epilady Legend rechargeable epilator when my old Epilady finally died - after 17 years!
    I really like this epilator. It is faster and smoother than my old one, and it never pinches my skin, even not behind the knees. I use it all over - legs, arms, underarms and even some in the bikini.
    I tried some other epilators by other manufacturers that my friends bought, but none of them do as good a job for me as the Legend. The fact that it is rechargeable help a lot. I can use it corded too, when I forget to charge it. this epilator is great for travel too. When I charge it full (overnight), it has more than enough power to finish epilating my whole body, so I never have to lug around my charger when I go on vacation.
    I would highly recommend the Legend, and in fact, some of my friends who epilate got one to replace the ones they had. Thanks Epilady!
