<p>A depilation apparatus provided with a depilation member (7) with pinching elements (19, 21, 69, 73, 111, 115) for consecutively holding hairs growing from the skin clamped in and pulling these hairs from the skin. The depilation apparatus is provided with means (7, 41, 67) for twisting the hairs about their longitudinal axes before the depilation member (7) pulls the hairs from the skin. A considerable reduction of the required pulling force and a reduction of the pain occurring during pulling-out are achieved in that the hairs are twisted before being pulled out. The risk of hair fracture during pulling-out of the hairs is also considerably reduced. The twisting action of the depilation apparatus is achieved through the use of a pair of disc-shaped pinching elements (19, 21, 69, 73, 111, 115) with cooperating pinching surfaces (23a, 23b, 71, 75, 113, 117) which slide alongside one another at least temporarily in the pinching position of the pinching elements (19, 21, 69, 73, 111, 115). To achieve this, the pinching elements (19, 21, 69, 73, 111, 115) have different rotation speeds in the pinching position.</p> |
