Epilator hair removal?

i have really thick hair on my legs.when i shave it, it grows back the next day, so i started waxing it.but, i dont want to wait till my hair grows back long enough to wax it again, i think that just defeats the purpose of gettin rid of the hair.plus, because my hair is thick, sometimes i have to wait till it gets at least half an inch long to wax it off so the wax can get a good enough grip to pull the thick hairs out.i want to buy an epilator, but have a few questions, and money and pain does not matter.does an epilator only take out small areas at a time? how does it work?do you just move it up and down your leg as if you were shaving with an electric shaver, and it pulls the hairs out immediately?is it a lengthly process where you have to do every little section at a time?also, do i still have to wait till my leg hair gets half an inch long, as if i am waxing,for the epilator to be able to pull it out?or can i use the epilator right when the hair grows back and is stuble?

Epilator hair removal?

All epilators need something to grip on to. Usually at least a half inch of hair. Also, they DO NOT do very well at pulling out thicker shafted hair, because this hair has a stronger root system than others. It would take many "passes" to remove all of it.

Please note: you have to be very careful in how you use an epilator. The skin where you are using it has to be pulled taut in order to prevent your skin itself from being sucked inside the epilator with the hair and being pinched nastily.

I have personally tried almost every epilator available on the market. I would not use any of them on a regular basis. The whole process is long, involved, painful and not worth it.

Also, I hate screwing around with wax kits. I find they don't do a really good job.

I stick with Nad's. The sugaring process is like waxing, only without the disgusting wax residue that can be hard to get off. The residue left from sugaring can just be washed off in your bath. And Nad's only requires a quarter inch of hair to work. AND it really does encourage the hair to grow back finer, with less of it. I have less than half the leg hair growing back now, than I had when I first started sugaring at 16.

Yes you can use the epilator right when the hair grows back, but its painful.
