Epilator?

[MrsSnape]

I'm sick of shaving every day...what would you suggest, waxing or epilator?

Epilating huuuurrrrrrrrrttttssss like you can't imagine, especially round the ankles and knees. Get frozen peas on stand by...
That said, it lasts longer than shaving, however, if your hairs grow at different rates, you might need to do it once a week.
Oddly, you do get used to it though and you may find the pain is worth it.
I tried one of those with an ice pack attached to it and it was so cumbersome that I jettissoned the ice bit (you freeze it in the freezer before attaching it) and without it, it's much easier to use. It does hurt though.

Waxing - try Nads, you can get it in Boots, it's good as you yank it off with cotton strips (included in the box, or they were when I used it ages ago) and any residue simply washes off so you don't have to keep trying to get it off. Hair has to be long enough to grip the wax though.

Which do you fancy the most!

I have been epilating for about 9 months now and it honestly doesn't hurt at all now - I even have totally hair-free patches. I've got the Braun Silk-epil - Love it!!!

Don't get me wrong - 1st time was hellish! I just kept telling myself I'd given birth twice so I could bloody well epilate

Get this - I epilated my armpits! First time I thought I was going to keel over it hurt so much, it hurts less each time you do it. I find looking away helps, so do it with the telly on to distract yourself!

Thanks for the advice, I'm not great with pain but when I waxed it really hurt!

I think I'll try an epilator...does the hair need to be long for that too?
