Overall I almost tried everything in hair removal, and apart from permanent hair removal laser, the only truly satisfactory method remains the wax. However, we do not have every day the time or the means to use them. The razor is a momentarily effective alternative but beware regrowth! This epilator is intended to be an alternative between the razor (good side) and the traditional electric epilator. On paper, this seems a contradiction. Without interest me particularly to technology implementation here, I lean primarily on the result, which is very satisfying. A sensation on the skin which is rather mild, not too fast regrowth and the possibility to use it in the shower, which is a time saver for me. After several weeks of use, I vote!
