Overview
Not a shaver or a trimmer, the Philips epilator pulls hair from the root with a row of tweezers, and a massage cap softens the sensation for first-time users working on legs, arms, underarms or bikini line.
Root removal that lasts weeks, a beginner massage cap and a washable head make it an easy first epilator. It runs only on the cord at one speed, so travel and wet use are out.
Who it's for
Beginners who want longer gaps between hair removal sessions at home will get the most from it. People with low pain tolerance or who need cordless freedom should look at other options.
Pros and cons
- Massage cap eases the sensation
- Catches very short hairs
- Washable epilation head
- Palm-sized with anti-slip handle
- Corded use only
- Single speed setting
- Not for wet use
Performance notes
Results depend on the tweezers gripping short hair at the root, so hair at a short regrowth length epilates more evenly. Slow passes against the hair growth direction catch more in one go.
