One of the Best Purchases I Have Ever Made
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.I will start by saying this- I highly recommend this product, so much that I already bragged about it to my friend and convinced her to purchase it and she is excited to receive her package. I have never used an epilator before so I wasn't quite sure what I was getting into. I actually ran across this product when I searched "woman razor" on Best Buy (as a random "I-need-to-spend-money-on-myself-regardless-what-it-is" purchase) and this epilator came up in the search results. I did a little research to find out that this tool basically provides the same effect as waxing only using a tweezing mechanism instead. Call me a baby but I tried waxing my bikini area once and needless to say I didn;t even complete the ridiculously priced session. I would be lying if I said this does not cause pain. However, considering it's a tool you use on your own time and at your own pave its makes the hair removal process doable. If you need a break, you can take one. If it's too painful in one area (I have not been able to muster up the courage to complete my underarms) then skip it. Without a doubt this product is well worth the price (much less expensive then waxing that you have to make appointments for and sit uncomfortably with someone else). TIP TO FOLLOW: It is SIGNIFICANTLY less painful to use the device in the shower under running water. I also recommend doing some research on prep and aftercare for epilating as I learned the hard way and broke out with some pimples on my first try, due to my own ignorance and lack of education. In a nut shell: not only WOULD I recommend this product to others but I already have to all of my friends. The attached photo is of my legs that I haven't touched with the epilator or a razor since I used the product on 4/20/2020 (over two weeks ago). My hair is thick, black and typically grows very quickly so this was a life changing purchase for me. I cannot wait for summer!

Love it!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.First off, I had no clue this epilator came with so many extra things. It came with three caps (1 for the face), a razor head, a little cleaning brush, a little travel bag for the epilator, a charger, and to my biggest surprise, an electric face brush with 2 batteries. WHOA! I guess I didn't look into the product much but wow I definitely feel like I got my money's worth. Not only is the quality of epilator and parts great but even the face brush is impressive. I have used an epilator in the past that was almost a quarter of the price and although it did its job, this one is far better. I can tell it is durable and will last a long time. I have already tried it on my legs, face, and underarms, and it worked perfectly. Keep in mind if you've never waxed or epilated before, it is painful the first few times but you will build your pain tolerance. This epilator got even the thinnest hair like peach fuzz off! Not to mention, it is quite a pretty epilator with the purple head and dial and glittery white bottom. Definitely recommend.

My biggest regret
||Posted .This machine is super fast, painless (at least for me. I used for my underarms, bikini line and legs). I was so happy when I bought it because I could use up to 5 tines bd having to bathe it. BUT... Lt much to shave after a couple of months. Not a good thing believe. My hair now is ingrown. It’s long and buried under my skin. I’ve tried brushes, scrubbing with shower gloves (not gentle.) and getting my hair to come out is more painful than shaving. Let’s not talk about how awful my legs look afterwards. Regret having bought it. Sad I can’t return. Don’t waste your money! My once smooth legs look terrible now.

huuguughghg aguhwwgggghhh huuguughghg !!! (wookie)
||Posted .I had an Braun epilator for probably over 10 years. The thing was beat to death, i just kept using it even though it was hardly working.... I had to buy something new. I didn't recall them being this expensive but this looked far fancier than the old one I had. The old one I had barely could pull hair anymore, lots of ingrowns etc. This new one is also cordless, the old was corded. I was a little concerned about power without a cord. No need, thing is powerful enough with its charge. I didn't know they could get this good. Far less pain and much quicker. I have had much use for the attachments, but the standard piece does just fine. Have yet to have my skin caught in it, which was very common on my old one when going through curvier areas. Not gunna lie, it was dead of winter, I hadn't epilated my legs for months, the hairs were like 1-2 inches... it was gross. One charge got the one whole leg. So it can handle longer hairs which is nice. I thought about taking before and after picture for the review, lucky for the reads- I didnt LOL. Anyway, im an avid epilator, I have not shaved my legs since I was about 16 because of epilation. Sure, its not necessarily quicker but it makes my OCD happy and who has time to shave every-every other day. Not this wookie. Whether you are new to epilators of upgrading, they probably don't get much better than is.

Best “self-care” gadget!
||Posted .I owned one of these 20 years ago and used it for years until I tossed it out in favor of waxing. But after decades of waxing I wondered if there was something easier that would spare the spilt wax all over my bathroom counter, sink, floor, etc. I saw this on the BB site as I was looking for something else and figured I’d try it again. I am soooo happy I got it! I’ll spare the details, but every “area” of use has been an amazing experience. Yes it’s a tad uncomfortable to have hair being pulled out, but waxing is worse, especially when skin comes off with the wax. This epilator is now my exclusive go-to and no more waxing or shaving needed. For those concerned about ingrown hairs, I get those whether I wax, shave or epilate, so just be sure to exfoliate your skin so the hair has a route out, that so far has done the trick.

Amazing!
||Posted .Where do I even begin? First of all, I've struggled to find a hair removal option for my legs for YEARS! Shaving caused severe razor burn no matter what I tried. Waxing was too expensive, and not doing anything was not an option for me (or my boyfriend -_-). Then I stumbled on epilating and this one was the highest recommended. Every review said the same thing. Painful (very very true but only the first time), but effective! As a person who shaved in the morning and by the afternoon, already had stubble, I can say very happily that my skin is silky smooth for at least a week and even then the hair is so fine you can't even feel it! I only know its time to epilate again when I can see the little blonde hairs in the sunlight! Needless to say I'm very happy (and so is my boyfriend)!

It’s worth the pain
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.I’m not going to lie at first I was scared but I kept telling myself this will be better than shaving and having to deal with the hair regrowth a day after shaving. To be honest it does hurt the first time but after a few uses you get use to it and you’ll have less hair you need to epilate the next time so it won’t be as painful as the first. I love it and I haven’t shaved since I bought it, my skin is thanking me I wish I would’ve got it sooner.

Braun Epilator
||Posted .I bought this to replace a very old epilator which wasn't working too well anymore. I would have preferred a plug in model, but so far the battery seems to last quite a while and cordless sure makes the process a lot easier. One of the reasons I chose a Braun model was because of the high performance of my last one. One note-the description doesn't mention the light on the unit which was a pleasant surprise and a huge help especially when traveling. It works really well on both the regular and the focused heads.

Q: QuestionCan this be used all over the body?
Asked by thesweet1.
- A:Answer Pretty much. It comes with a cap specifically for the face and others for the bikini area, legs, and rest of body.
Answered by Truffles
Q: QuestionHow does it perform in the bikini area? I can tolerate pain, but am tired of razor burn, bumps, nicks, cuts and ingrown hair. Will it cause any of the issues I mentioned and does it leave behind any stubble?
Asked by Techjunkie1217.
- A:Answer It’s painful but it can be used in the bikini area. I do not experience ingrown with this tool. If using on bikini area be sure to exfoliate and use tea tree oil to prevent ingrown and irritation

Q: Questionis this the last Issuance ?
Asked by islam.
- A:Answer The Braun silk epil 9 is the newest epilator from Braun, and top of their line at the moment, The silk epil 7 was their old top of the line 3-4 years ago before the 9 came out, You didn't specifically ask this, but there are many different variations of each model, with the only differences being the trim color of the unit and the accessories it is packaged with. At the moment the maximum number of accessories offered per package is 12, so this exact model 9579 is in the middle since it comes with 7 accessories.

Q: QuestionCan i use it when the i travel? The voltage is 110-240v?
Asked by PR.
- A:Answer Yes, I double checked the plug in adapter on mine and it says 110-240v. The adapter is white and the print is also a contrasting white which makes it difficult to read unless you get the light to reflect just right. It will work as long as you can plug it into the receptacle without a converter. Otherwise you will need a corresponding adapter. It is a standard two prong plug that works in the United States and a few other countries like Peru.

Q: QuestionDoes this work on blonde hair? I heard one works but the others don't due to being driven by hair color
Asked by Loulou.
- A:Answer Short answer: hair color doesn’t matter. Long answer: it sounds like you were thinking of laser hair removal, which IS hair color dependent and tends not to work on blonde hair. But epilators work as long as there is hair within the length the tweezers can reach for the sill epil 9 that’s between 2mm and 5mm for best results.
