I think epilating doesn’t pick up the shortest hairs for me, because it’s never quite as smooth after. Or it’s a skill issue because I always quit my epilating sessions when I can’t take the pain any more and I maybe should have kept going a little longer.
I tried waxing for the first time today! (did it on my after shaving my legs), and it wasn’t nearly as bad as I thought it would be, epilating hurts way more.
