Epilator vs Skull Shaver

I’ve been a die hard epilator user for 20 years or so. But I’m falling out of love with it and think hair removal has modernised without me.

what are the best options these days?

Currently I epilate underarms and legs. Occasionally bikini line when I’m feeling brave only. My underarms are quite hollow and hard to get the epilator head in there tho

thanks!

I have a facial epilator that I use for underarms and bikini line if feeling brave. Works like a normal one but head is half the size and the whole thing is longer / thinner. Amazon for under £20. I prefer removal rather than cutting short. It I’ve been doing it for years and I think the roots seem to give up really easily now.

Oh that sounds ideal for underarm thanks I’ll take a look. Need some new decide for legs though as epilator isn’t cutting it so to speak. Maybe the hair is so thin think and weak from so many years epilating it either breaks or I have to go over it 100 times for epilator to pick it up. Honestly sometimes I give up and just pluck individual hairs with tweezers 🙄
