Review (5/5): great epilator, but the battery runs down too quickly
I find this epilator works much better than the other ones I have used.
I had another wet/dry that was nowhere near as effective, so I am just buying another one of these to make up for the short battery life because I like it that much.
This is my second wet/dry, and my third or forth epilator.
I get HORRIBLE razor burn, so epilation is the way to go.
Epilation IS really painful at first, but well worth it if you get the horrible razor burns like I used to!!! The razor burns last 24/hr a day, and this is over quickly.
I find epillating in the shower is convenient, more effective, and less painful than outside of it, but it IS hard to to see what you are doing.
The way to get started with epilation is to shave first. Since each hair grows at a different rate you can epilate for one or two days, and then shave again, and epilate again, etc., etc.
Don't follow the directions and go really slowly up the leg(or wherever). That is unrealistic. I am sure it is more efficient, but that is why you have to go back ansd forth like they tell you not to. I use this everywhere which is great, too
This epilator is much more thorough, and that is why it is much better. The others are not worth the little bit(or lot) of money you save.
Good luck!
