What we recommend for first time users: 1) Read the instruction manual. It will give you important information about the machine and a safety measure. 2) Take a warm shower prior to epilating. What this does is open your pores up and will help reduce discomfort and make epilation more efficient. 3) After epilating, do not apply any creams or lotions until about an hour later. This is because your hair shafts are open and when creams are applied, it clogs up these shafts. This may lead to ingrown hairs. Each machine on the market has tweezers that close at different points as the head spins. What we recommend you do is, while the machine is in the "off" position, play around with the head and see at exactly what point the tweezers close. Take that point and put it on your leg. The Legend should be held at a 75-80 degree angle facing the user (see illustration on this page - click on it to enlarge). When held at the correct angle, you will feel the machine working immediately. Some users complain about red bumps after epilating. Believe it or not this is a good thing! This means the hair was actually pulled from the root as opposed to being cut, as when shaving. These bumps will not last long. Epilating at night will assure you that these bumps will be gone by the morning. We're not going to lie; you will experience a little discomfort, especially if you have never waxed or epilated before. But it will be for the first 2-3 times you use it; think of it like a program. Once you pull out the machine the third time you will notice a drastic difference in the discomfort factor. Just remember, you the results will last for 3-4 weeks!
