7 Tips You Need to Know Before Trying This Buzzy Hair-Removal Method

Yes, there are two kinds of epilators, so do your research on which best suits your skin type and needs! Wet epilators are often cordless and waterproof and can be used in the bath or shower, while dry epilators are corded and not waterproof. Some models function both wet and dry, so it's a win-win situation.

There are pros and cons to both. Because wet epilators are waterproof, you can epilate in warm water where hairs are softer — translating to less pain on your end. However, epilating dry means that tweezers will have an easier time plucking hair vs. wet strands. It's your call whether you choose to go wet, dry, or perhaps even both.
