Philips Lumea - chin help!

6 replies

Ayupmeduck · 27/12/2020 20:16

So Santa delivered a Lumea for Christmas. I used it for the first time yesterday following the instructions.
Usually I would pluck the hairs on my chin but I shaved instead which felt slightly weird as it says to not to pluck. Today it feels really stubbly Confused Am I supposed to wait for the hairs to fall out or can they be plucked in between treatments? I don't fancy feeling stubbly or having to shave for the next 2 weeks until I redo the treatment!
I've looked in the booklet that comes with the Lumea but it only really talks about what to do directly before you use it.

You can shave in between zapping, if you pluck it takes longer to work

I also used it every week at first

Don't pluck, you need to keep on shaving. When they grow back they'll sort of fall out bit by but until hardly any grow back.

I've heard these aren't suitable if the chin hair is grey ?
Sorry to jump onto your thread op but have others found this to be true please ? Some of my chin hairs are black but tbh mostly white !

It won’t work on pale grey or white hairs, it needs dark pigment.
