Never go back to a razor

Quick and easy to use, removes the hair and gives me more time between treatments. There is no going back each day or every other day, instead I only need to run this over once every week or other week to maintain my grooming. I was scared it would hurt but this is far less painful than waxing.

Braun Silk Epilator

Best product I've ever used for hair removal. It is a bit painful at first, but with time it becomes tolerable. The results make it worth the discomfort.

Tips: Exfoliate first - always.

Not so great

I am not really a huge fan of this as I feel not only does it hurt but it makes my skin very irritated! In saying that my mum uses this and she absolutely loves it! I did find when I was using it that hair grew back a lot slower unlike shaving which is an every day sort of thing, I used this about 3-4 times a week! So if you can put up with the slight tingling pain and skin irritation then it'd be fine!

Braun Silk Epilator

this product really doesnt advertise the fact it really hurts but its tolerable after a while, its best for underarms as it removes all the hairs not so much on your legs doesnt really remove much but maybe thats just me, but its sooo great for underarms!!

Easier than self waxing

Removes hair by pulling them out from the roots. Not messy so easier than waxing but quite painful when first used especially around the ankles. I didn't use it for bikini line as thought it might be too painful. Better result than shaving as lasts longer and grows back softer. Once you have used it a few times you get used to it. Not as quick as shaving because I found I had to go over the same area a number of times to get all the hairs.

Tips: Make sure your legs or under arms are warm, if you are cold the hair follicle contracts holding onto the hair tightly which results in the hair breaking off instead of coming out from the roots. It is really important to exfoliate often after epilation as if you don't you can get In growing hairs which are like infected spots. Also moisturise to keep the skin supple. Do not apply moisturiser up to 24 hours after epilating as the pores of the skin will be open and moisturisers entering the pores could cause irritation.

Not for me

I was very excited to try epilating last year.. I was fed up with constantly shaving and wanted something that would help result in long-term hair loss in shaving areas. I found this epilator to be quite painful on sensitive areas such as the shins and thighs. However, it did not hurt me at all when using it on my armpits. Regardless of pain I would have continued to use this product as you really do get used to the pain but I was constantly getting ingrown hairs and hairs that were not ingrown but would not break the last layer of skin. It was painful to release the hairs from the ingrown folicle and also the thin layer of skin. Therefor I went back to shaving.

With the epilator it is easy to miss spots and occasionally it was difficult to tell your hair had grown back until I was out andit was too late!

Also, you will break out in red bumps from using this, especially the first time. It takes a few hours for mine to go down so i recommend using it at night!

Great for some places

I brought this with the expectation that I would use it to do legs and armpits and save on waxing costs. To begin with I did this and it did the trick however it was painful and took so long! Like forever! I soon gave up, now I have gone back to shaving my legs, this is something I really didn't want to go back to. I still use it to do my underarms and the battery seems to be slowly getting a shorter lifespan. It will now only last just enough for my underarms. One thing I don't like is that you cannot use it when it's plugged in so once the battery is dead that's it. I have had it about 4 years now. Tried using it in the bath on my legs to see if that makes it easier but it really didn't pick up any hairs then!

Effective but wince inducing

I hate shaving and have been known to go months without shaving. Once I did my research I chose this one because it can be used wet and dry. Multiple heads so make different areas easier. It's loud but charges quickly. First use stings but gets easier. If the room is warm it seems easier.

Tips: Make sute the hair isn't too long and exfoliate before and after to reduce ingrown hairs

Braun epilator

This epilator will hurt the first time you use it. It plucks your hair out, but I recommend to move the epilator slowly to your skin as it is more likely to pluck more hairs out.

However, it doesn't remove short hairs really well. If you have sensitive skin, you might want to know that whenever the hair grows back, it gets really itchy. So I pretty much use it on my underarms since I can't stand having itchy legs.

Overall, great product, saves you money from waxing and saves time as well.

Good but haven't used it as much as I planned

I wanted to start epilating so I could reduce the amount of time spent shaving my legs and underarms. I have used it twice on my legs but the amount of ingrown hairs I get means that I have red bumps and itchy skin for the next two months and need to spend a whole lot of time exfoliating to get my skin back to normal. Not such a time saver.

I do still use it to epilate my underarms. It hurts and can be hard to get into such a small area since there awkward angles to deal with but once its done the results are worth it. It keeps the hair gone for a week or more and then I'll shave the (much lighter) regrowth for the next month before epilating. Stops the annoying 'shadow' I used to get daily which is great.
