FIRST TIME Using my Braun Silk-epil 7
on October 18, 2015
Posted by: sammyj912
from Mcallen, TX
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think, this product is so cool. First off when i got it out of the box i saw how pretty it was designed, its glittery and pink. The next thing that i thought was really neat is that is comes with 2 extra accessories, as well as a little cleaning brush and storing bag. Im not going to lie, I was a little intimidated when i turned it on, it was pretty fast and loud. I wanted to test it first so I started with my legs at the very bottom. It has 2 speeds since I am a beginner I started with the slower speed, I moved it upwards the way I would a regular razor. I felt like little plucks and of course that was the hair being removed, after a while i got used to the pinching feeling and moved up to the faster speed. I love this product and absolutely will continue to use it. I think the only down fall as to why I won't give it 5 stars is that once I was done with my whole leg, I went over it 2 more times just to be sure I got them all but unfortunately I still feel some hairs poking through. It didn't leave my legs completely soft, its soft for the most part but like I said there is still a few baby hairs that it didn't grab. But, I was so excited to try this one because I am the type of person who literally has to shave my legs every 2-3 days because I grow hair so quickly. I think epilating, Is really going to change that, and Im hoping I could go at least a week or 2 without shaving. Other then that my legs look great and I am so excited to try it on a different part of my body. This product really is a must try!!!

Best Epilator
on October 18, 2015

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Yes, epilators are scary, and at first painful, but it's all worth it at the end. The noise these little machines make amaze me every time. But don't worry it's just that, noise.
Before receiving Braun Epi Silk 7 7-521 as a promotion from the company, I had already owned a previous Braun Epilator which at the time I thought was great. But after using the Epi Silk 7 I notice that It's no only a lot more gentle but the caps are also really flexible, which makes a world of a difference as this allows the epilator to pull out even the thinist and shortest hairs. I am extremely happy, this product did just what it promised which was to leave me with soft, hairless skin.
Let me just say, my armpits have never been smoother.

Simply the best!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love it, I'm using it every time i see a hair sticking up, no hair is welcome in my body, is quick, and almost painless the more you use it the less pain you feel. Battery life is good, I charged it on Sunday and a week later i have not had to charge it again, of course I'm using it almost everyday but for a short period of time. Even my husband agreed to let me use it on him, because of the fast speed is less pain and no pinching of skin. I can't wait to be in a warm place so i can show off my hair free legs.

Scariest shave
on October 18, 2015

from Fort Irwin, CA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this a couple days ago and decided to use it today, or at least attempt use it. I was very excited when I got it out of the box, but when I actually started using it in the shower, I couldn't go through with it. The pain was bad. It felt like it was cutting my skin. I had to immediately go back to my razor. The part of my leg that I used the epilator turned red... I will be attempting to use it again later on.

Not to fantastic for me

from Kimberly, ID
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] At first when I was invited to the buzz event I was super excited because I've always wanted a electric razor but couldn't afford it. Now that I have received it I tried using it the first day it arrived and it was a big disappointment. It didn't cut anything off my legs. It just stinged but don't work. I prefer normal razors now. It also should come with a simpler instruction manual because I read over the instructions about 4 times and I couldn't understand it. If they were simpler it would be 100x easier to use and understand how to use it. I had to kind of mess around with everything.

braun silk epil results

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First time ever trying braun brand. I was neutral about it. At first once i tried it was pretty painful i just tried it on my arms since i had shave like 2 weeks before i received the braun silk epil so i thought it wouldn't hurt since my hairs are just starting to show but my god this braun machine really works and it does really get all the hair painful yes but i think I'll get used to it works better when in the shower with warm water helps. Leaves skin baby soft a little red but it will go away. I will recommend it if u can tolerate some pain.

Dry is Good
on October 20, 2015

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It definitely hurts more using the epilator on dry skin but it works the best. You have virtually no hairs and you don't have to go over and redo it 200 times. The redness and irritation goes away after 7-10 minutes, and it doesn't hurt so bad that it's unbearable.
On the other hand, in the water this epilator is TOTAL GARBAGE!!! I spent 20 minutes going over 1 leg again and again and again (and then made the same mistake of doing the other arm as well). For whatever reason, the epilator just DID NOT want to grab my hair at all.
Pain wise: This baby is a beauty. The more frequently you epilate, the less it hurts over time. At first it's pretty ouchy, don't get me wrong. In the water it doesn't hurt at all (probably because its not doing anything) and then on dry skin it hurts moderately, but over the next few times it should go away. I'll post back on that later.
One thing I really adore here though is that it DOES NOT grab your skin on accident ever! Once you've turned yours on if you're afraid just stick your fingertips on the tweezer area. It won't grab you. You know you're done epilating an area after you don't feel the little pulls on your hair. You can run the epilator over the smoothe skin just to make sure it's for sure done and it's not going to grab your skin <3 love that.
