Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, you can use Colibry with one hand. Simply insert your fingers inside the elastic bands on its ends: thumb on one side and index and middle fingers on the other. 

With this handle you can operate Colibry with one hand, to reach the most difficult parts of the body, helping with the other hand to stretch the skin.

To make the movement even smoother, simply apply a drop of moisturizing or food-grade oil to the metal ring, lubricating the mechanism.

The use of Colibry in the most delicate areas of the body is recommended only after becoming familiar with the instrument. With a little practice you will learn to reach even the points that seem most difficult. 

During the epilation of delicate parts of the body, it is essential to keep the skin tight to avoid involuntary pinching.

With the right manuality and attention to the movement of the spiral you can also act with precision on the face. After becoming familiar with the instrument you can reach parts of the body that seem difficult at first. 

We always recommend to be careful when epilating delicate areas of the body, keeping the skin always taut to avoid involuntary pinching.

With a little practice you'll find the most convenient way for you.

Threading is the most delicate on the skin and has been shown to better prepare for regrowth by counteracting the onset of ingrown hairs. 

Unfortunately this problem is subjective because it relates to very personal skin characteristics.

Our advice is to always shower and scrub, dry your legs well, put talcum powder and use Colibry! Keep the scrub ritual once a week.

The durability of Colibry's threads varies from the quality and quantity of the hair. On average, one pair of strands is enough to epilate two or three times the legs.

It also counts that after only three sessions you will immediately notice the slowing down of the regrowth, the thinning of the hair and its weakening!

For the first epilation we recommend starting from a hair length between 3 and 6mm.

With the right manual skill and experience with Colibry you can remove even 1 or 2mm regrowth.

It is also possible to act on hairs longer than 6mm, but with the risk of taking longer and causing more discomfort.

There is no functional difference between Colibry's models. Special versions are limited editions!
