Ans: Regular cleaning and maintenance of the epilator after you epilate is a must. This is something you should not neglect if you want to increase the performance and longevity of the device. Thoroughly clean the epilator along with tweezers head after every usage with a cleaning brush. If its head is not washable, then clean and dry it properly. If you are using a cordless epilator, then it is mandatory to charge it once a month. Doing so will make the battery last for about 40 minutes and makes it work for many years. Regular washing, cleaning, and charging of a cordless epilator will prevent the need to replace the device once a year. If you are using a corded epilator, which is reliable and works to last longer, you do not have to worry about its charging.
