Review by Fancy Pants for Panasonic Wet/Dry Epiglide 3-in-1 Epilator Hair Removal System with Skin Protector
1. Take off the pink “skin protector” shield when using it on your legs or any taunt skin. If you use it on your underarms, the head may pinch your skin without the shield. In general, the shield blocks the epilator head, removing fewer hairs with each sweep. If it hurts too much the first time you use it, the shield will cause fewer hairs to be pulled out at a time, so it might lessen the pain.
2. Only use the epilator dry. The razor, only use wet. The hairs stick to your skin when wet, so the epilator head can’t grab them as easily. When wet, you hair is softer, making it easier for the razor head to remove it. This is actually a benefit, as I can epilate my legs while reading anywhere in the house–I don’t have to be in the bathroom as I do while shaving.
3. The fact of the matter is the first time you use it, you will have a significant quantity of hairs to remove. You will not get them all in one shot. Use the epilator for about 20 minutes a day, 3 or 4 days in a row, until you are satisfied with the results. Because hairs aren’t all on the same growth cycle, you will have to do touch-ups every 2-3 days or so. You may think of this as a deal breaker, but think of how many times a week you have to shave your legs to keep them smooth. For me, I had to shave my legs every day to avoid stubble. The epilator gives me longer-lasting results.
4. Your hair SHOULD thin out, as you are torturing the roots over and over again while yanking out the hairs. This may take a while, though. Just like it took a few years of plucking my eyebrows for the hairs to stop growing back, my leg hair is thinning out, but slowly. I have been using this epilator for about 9 months now. I have noticed thinning, but it has taken a while. The longer you use the epilator, the thinner your hair will get.
5. The head is too large to be practical for your bikini line, but with some creative body positioning and pulling back of your skin, you can make it work. You can get a bikini line epilator for about $20, but I find they aren’t as powerful as this product.
Overall, this product is a great investment. The trimmer is very handy to own, even though I don’t care much for the razor head alone. I haven’t had to buy new razors since I made this purchase, meaning I have probably saved money by owning the epilator. I usually let it charge over night, as it takes about 8 hours to fully charge. As a general note about rechargeable batteries, wear the batteries down COMPLETELY before recharging. If the battery is not fully drained, charging it reduces the life of the battery.

First of all, this was an impulse buy, although I went to the store to buy “something”. Something better than the regular ol’ razor. Perhaps I would try the latest and greatest in the Nair or Veet department? (Every few years I do this as I think there has to have been some breakthrough in the formula that I just must try. I would fall in love and forever leave the necessary evil of shaving behind.) So back to reality …. I purchased the Epiglide at Target ($70 — of course amazon has it twenty bucks cheaper *sigh*) after thoroughly reading the boxes of the four or five models they had in the store. I picked this one up because it had the attached trimmer (a very nice feature and ultimately the deciding factor) AND it was also wet/dry. I decided to try to use mine in the bath w/ shaving cream. I also dabbed a little bath soap on the epilator head to keep everything flowing smoothly. Now this is not a quick and painless process at all. The directions booklet claims that the pain lessens with use. As for me, I didn’t bleed and the redness I got went away after a few hours. Sure the 36 or 37 tweezers that are ripping out the hair at the root hurt (especially shins) but really? What did you expect? Personally, I’m really happy with this product but I think you have to go in with reasonable expectations. Expect this to take some time (took me a solid 20 minutes for both legs and the bikini area) and while it’s not child-birthing pain, there is some discomfort and dammit, it kinda hurt. But not enough for me to put it down, forget I ever purchased the thing and put it up on craigslist that very evening. I also suspect that with regular continued use “shaving” will take a lot less time and effort. The box claims that after using the epilator you will be hair free for 4 weeks! I don’t believe that for one minute, so if my legs stay relatively hair free for half that amount of time, I’m still a satisfied customer. Plus, it comes with a little bag to store everything.
I have yet to try my underarms. As of the first use I was not that brave. But I have read other reviews of the previous model that say with a good lather, you can do your underarms pretty quickly and with less pain then your legs. I think I shall try it tonight …..

I highly recommend this product. It is easy to use and charges without any problems. It does not hurt, or pull or damage the skin.
Review by B. Nicolato for Panasonic Wet/Dry Epiglide 3-in-1 Epilator Hair Removal System with Skin Protector
At first I thought this item was great. I epilated a week’s worth of hair growth and was looking forward to not seeing anymore hair for a month. However, I realized that hair grows in cycles from each follicle. Hair that gets epilated is the hair that’s out, just under the surface, there may be hairs that will surface the following day and therefore would need to be epilated soon. A convenience is that shower-time is shortened as I don’t have to add shaving to my daily routine. Also, you can epilate while you’re sitting on the deck or watching TV. I tried it ‘wet’ once and didn’t care for the results.
I am disappointed in the amount of time it takes to epilate. You may have to go over and over the same spot a number of times to catch every hair – with shaving, one quick swoop and the hair is gone. It takes me a good 20+ minutes, not less than once a week. Also, sometimes the hair that grows in doesn’t break surface, it forms a small cyst or bump under the skin. That requires picking open the bump with a tweezer or something and then epilating it.
So, all in all, if I had to reconsider buying this thing, I probably wouldn’t.

I have purchased two of these epilators. They are the most pain free of all that I have tried. They do a good job of removing hair.
