Epilating versus waxing

[usersouthcoast]

A couple of questions for you -

Do you know if epilating lasts as long as waxing?

Will epilating definitely pull out the hairs, or just snap some?

I currently wax my legs, but would like to try epilating as it's so time consuming waxing. Am I wasting my time?

Thanks xx

I am an epilating fan. If you already wax then I imagine you won't find epilating so painful. I found the first time epilating was painful but after that, much easier and now I don't feel any discomfort at all. I give myself a quick going over once a week or so..it's so quick and easy I don't think of it as a separate task. You must keep up on exfoliating a few times a week to keep ingrown hairs in check. I use some scrubby gloves from superdrug someone recommended on here and they work a treat

Thanks @Donii ... I'm off to boots to give it a try

I love my epilator. You don't have to wait for regrowth, there's no mess, I get far fewer ingrowing hairs and it doesn't remove fake tan.

I did find the kind with little tweezers can break the hairs. Mine has little metal discs. (That should seem less cryptic when you look at different brands.)
