Strawberry legs/KP - Epilator opinions???

I’ve wondered what these little dots are on my legs for sooooo long, it’s made me so self-conscious even having my ankles out because they look so bad. I’ve got curly hair so when my hair grows on my legs the hair curls round and my skin grows over the top trapping it and basically forming a ingrown hair; that’s what strawberry legs are, ingrown hairs and a build up of keratin

. I see a post on Twitter last night about a routine for how to get rid of it, and I researched so much and read that epilators will get rid of it. Epilators are basically the same as waxing, it pulls your hairs out by the root but it’s slower and more painful because waxing the hairs get pulled out in one hit. My hair on my legs is so thick as well, after shaving them the next day they are so prickly they could probably cut someone, I feel so sorry for my boyfriend having to put up with them all the time😂 I’ve had my legs waxed once before I went on holiday, and I couldn’t wait until after when my legs would be super soft but I was mega disappointed when they were still prickly as a cactus because obviously your hair grows at different stages, and it pulled up the ingrown hairs from under my skin; it did thin my hair out quite a lot when the hair grew back. I’m just sooooo fed up of shaving can’t stand it!!! Anyone ever used one or anyone suffered with strawberry legs and it’s helped them out? I’ve found one on amazon for £112, I know I could probably get one cheaper but I’m willing to spend anything on getting rid of this problem!!! Help girls x
