Abstract
A hair-removing device composed of a hair-removal roller driven in rotation by a motor around an axis of rotation arranged behind a housing window, a control mechanism for successively leading tweezing blades to close against one another in order to tweeze hairs to be plucked and then to separate from one another and a pain-soothing device composed of elements mounted on the roller. The elements are mounted in a fixed position on the roller and each element has at least one protuberance extending beyond a virtual cylinder coaxial with said roller and in which are inscribed said tweezing edges of said tweezing blades, and each protuberance has an outer end that is inclined or rounded along a plane that is transverse to the axis of rotation of the roller and that passes through the element from which the protuberance extends.
