The present invention is concerned with an epilator that comprises a housing (10), an epilation cylinder (20) mounted at a head region (11) of the housing (10) for plucking hairs from the skin during operation, and an attachment (1) detachably connected with the housing (10), which attachment (1) comprises at least a shaving blade (6) defining a use direction (B') along which the shaving blade is to be drawn over the skin to shave off hairs. In the attached state the shaving blade (6) is disposed behind the epilation cylinder (20) with respect to the use direction (B') so that during operation the epilation cylinder (20) plucks hairs from the skin and the shaving blade (6) contacts the skin to shave off hairs from the skin in successive order during a single stroke of the epilator (100) over a skin area, wherein the attachment (1) is connected with the housing (10) in the head region such that the epilation cylinder (20) is partially covered by the attachment (1) and a non-covered part of the epilation cylinder (20) extends into an aperture (4) of the attachment (1). |
