What are the best tweezers you’ve found?

[Abcd3]

I had an amazing pair of tweezers, which unfortunately I’ve recently lost while moving house. I’ve bought a few replacement ones but they’re all thicker metal and clumsier, so don’t get out hairs that are just beginning to grow back. Can anyone recommend a really good set of tweezers, please? Thank you!! :)

Tweezerman tweezers are great, had mine for years!

Tweezerman and I tweeze lots. (Used to have trichlomania but have managed to migrate to tweezing legs)
I buy the same pair of I lose them or they get blunt. I have four pairs ready for sharpening I'm secretly excited to send them off

You can sharpen tweezers?? Where do you send them to?

I have one pair that I like the most, and I have at least 10. Of course this is the same pair that everyone in the house grabs first for their random tweezer needs. I feel like I spend my life saying "who took my good tweezers".

I like them as they are not too thick and flat. I dont like the pointy ones as they dont grab my chin hairs half as well as the flat ones do. Now do you think I can find a second pair the same. Nope.

Yep tweezerman

Tweezerman have a free lifetime sharpening service.
£15 for tweezers is crazy, until you try them

Think I may have to invest in a pair of Tweezerman and hide them.

Absolutely tweezerman! Love mine, didn't know about the sharpening service!

I have Tweezerman, which are excellent for single hairs but I mostly use very fine surgical mosquito forceps, which I liberated from work several decades ago. They have fine serrated blades and when laid flat against the skin can grip a whole line of hairs and deal with them in one go.

Good ones are very very expensive though.

Tweezerman! At first I baulked at the price but they last. I have pointed ones and flat edge ones. They're the business.

Yeah tweezerman. Bought a pair in my late teens, then a replacement in my 20s after losing the first pair. Found original pair and both are still going fine in my late 30's. They do seem expensive, but like PP, they last well!

Tweezerman mini for me, I just find as they're smaller I can angle them better and closer than the larger ones, not sure why though! Plus they were a bit cheaper so when I lost my original Tweezermans I thought why not try the mini's and actually preferred them!

@BoreOfWhabylon laughing at the mosquito forceps - who knew!! But a whole line of hairs....did you also liberate local anaesthetic?! OUCH!

I 4th/5th/6th the Tweezerman recommendations. I buy a new pair every few years with my saved up Boots points. My current pair are on their 5th year, still going strong, and not looking to replace any time soon. As long as you look after them they'll look after you

I don't think the mini have the same tension Calco I've only one pair of mini they are my travel tweezers

Hold the bus.... I did not know about the sharpening service! What? Looking into that!

They even have a video to watch, very satisfying.

These are the actual pair I have in this video...little confused by the sharpening address is in NY. Not sure I could do without them for 4-6 weeks, in fact I know I couldn't, but after 5 years maybe I am due a spare www.tweezerman.co.uk/free-sharpening/

Mrs9c that's why I have so many, I can't be without them on the positive side I now have eyebrows (1\2 on one side) and I really enjoy buying something that actually works and lasts!

Yes I know I live life on the edge.....

This is true, I've been using Tweezermans for 10 years, and wouldn't think of buying any other. Boots sometimes have a deal on them too, so worth keeping an eye out. A worthwhile investment.

Now have electrolysis

Mrs9C it's surprisingly painless if you just hold the skin under tension and certainly speeds things up!

The Anastasia Beverley Hills tweezers are amazing...Unfortunately my 12 yo has lost mine.

Wow, thanks for the recommendations!!

Are these the tweezerman ones you’d recommend? Tweezerman Professional Stainless Steel Slant Tip Tweezerette Tweezer www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B000GK9JRY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_Z2z5CbCNT5QT7?tag=mumsnetforu03-21

I sent two pairs away to an address in Texas USA and both were sharpened and returned in the post. I can't remember how long l waited but it was a month or two. But, definitely worth it.
