using the appliance
general information about epilation
Epilation is easier just after a bath or shower. Make sure your skin
is completely dry when you start to epilate.
When you use the appliance for the first time, we advise you to try
it out on an area with only light hair growth. This helps you get
accustomed to the epilation process.
For optimal epilating results, the hairs should not be longer than
10 millimetres (Fig. )
To epilate longer hairs: (Fig. )
shorten the hairs to a maximum length of 10mm with a trimmer. In
this case, you can start to epilate right away.
shave the hairs completely. In this case you can start to epilate after a
few days (the hairs must be at least 0.5mm long).
Your skin may become a little red and irritated the first few times
you use the epilator. This phenomenon is absolutely normal
and quickly disappears. As you use the appliance more often, your
skin gets used to epilation, skin irritation decreases and
regrowth becomes thinner and softer. If the irritation has not
disappeared within three days, we advise you to consult a doctor.
We advise you to epilate before you go to bed at night, as
this allows any skin irritation that may develop to diminish
overnight.
