Epilating

Everything you need for epilation

Epilating is a hair removal method that removes hairs from the root. As a result, it usually takes longer for the hair to become visible again than with shaving. Epilating is particularly useful for small areas where you want to work with precision, such as around the eyebrows and on the face.

Epilating eyebrows

By epilating your eyebrows, you can remove stray hairs and maintain the shape of your eyebrows. An Epilating tweezers is a handy tool for this, as it allows you to grip each hair individually. Gently pull the hair out of the skin in the direction of hair growth. Would you like to pluck your eyebrows yourself? First, decide on the shape you want to maintain and focus on removing the hairs that are clearly growing outside this shape. This will prevent you from removing too many hairs in one go.

Choosing a good pair of tweezers

A good pair of tweezers gives you enough grip to grasp even the smallest hairs with precision. Various types of tweezers are available, for example with a slanted, straight or pointed tip. Angled tweezers are practical for plucking eyebrows, whilst a pointed variety can be useful for very fine or hard-to-reach hairs. The best tweezers for you therefore depend on what you intend to use them for. For your eyebrows, it’s particularly important that the tweezers fit comfortably in your hand and that the tips align neatly.
