Hi
Im based in the UK, I am hoping to be trained soon in electrolysis
The person I hope to be trained by has an apilus. I am undecided whether I should buy a machine first and then get trained on that
The main options that people talk about is apilus or sterex
I have actually used an Apilus Platinum and the Instantron Elite Spectrum. They are both very good choices. I don’t know anything about a Sterex.
Some epilators have more options than others. It is best to study what the features are and decide if you want or need a minimum number or a maximum number of those features/options. It’s all about choice.
I second the Instantron Elite Spectrum. A bit more than £1,000 but worth the investment since it will see you through from start to experienced electrologist. It is also a very comfortable machine for the client.
With a Sterex (SX-B) or low end Apilus, it’s highly likely that once you are relatively experienced, you will want to upgrade. You will also likely be performing Blend with either of these. Not that you cannot perform themolysis but you will be limited/restricted.
