<p>A depilating device has a housing (10) with a top opening (23) and a plucking head (40) with a longitudinal axis. The plucking head (40) carries a series of pinching elements (43,44) arranged in side-by-side relations to form therebetween gaps. At least one (44) of the adjacent pinching elements is movable relative to the other (43) in a direction of successively opening and closing said gaps so as to entrap and pinch the hairs between the adjacent pinching elements for plucking the hairs from the skin. The plucking head (40) is disposed to expose the pinching elements (43,44) in the top opening. A skin guide (30) is disposed around the plucking head (40) within the opening (23) to be exposed at least partially beyond the pinching elements (43,44) for sliding contact with the skin. The device is characterized in that the plucking head (40) and the skin guide (30) are floatingly supported to the housing (10) by means of a common structure such that they are capable of being depressed together into the housing (10) within a predetermined extent. Because of the common supporting structure, the plucking head (40) and the skin guide (30) can be depressed to the same extent, i.e, pressed evenly against the skin. Whereby, the skin guide (30) can well prevent the plucking head (40) from being over-pressed against the skin, which avoids the otherwise lowering of the plucking speed, thus assuring effective plucking operation without irritating the skin.</p> |
