[Wuerstchen]

I got the wet dry one and used it in the shower and didn't have much issue with it. I had already shaved with the body hair trimmer the week before so the hair had already grown to the appropriate size.

So after epilating, do I continue to wait for the hair to be 1/8 an inch before epilating again?

I am not familiar with the wet/dry epilator.

But to your question: with epilating the hair does not grow back all at once as happens with shaving. With me isolated hairs begin to appear after ten days or so, and mostly they are softer and finer--another advantage over shaving. Since the hairs do not regrow at the same rate, you will find that you will probably want to epilate every few days. 1/8 inch means that they will be long enough for the tweezers in the epilator to grip them. Over time increasingly less hair will grow back, as you pull out the roots. (This happens by itself.)

With my pubic area I usually tweeze the hairs as they appear; I only resort to the epilator when I haven't kept up my maintenance. One nice thing about the epilator is that it pulls out hairs that you may not even be able to see. Running your fingers across the area is the best way to tell if you have missed anything.
