Surprised
on November 29, 2025
Posted by: Debi
Got it tried it . I'm a strawberry blonde and wasnt thinking about my hairs not being dark enough . I used it for 3 weeks and got a good bit zapped . My issue is blonde peach fuzz on my cheeks. I have the stiff grandma chinny hairs and mustache that are darker. I returned it because I couldn't see much difference . It's been 2 weeks and the fuzz hasn't returned . I still get a few stiff stubs but nothing like before! I am considering ordering another one ! The cost is steep for me but being furry with Bear chin Is so embarrassing .

Braun Silk expert hair reduction system
on December 30, 2019
Posted by: shannon
from warren,MI
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the Braun Silk Expert Pro 3 hair reduction system and it works as I expected. It was an easy set up process. I started with my leg to see how it would work and it works quite well. I thought the light was a bit bright though. The box did say 9 minutes to treat but my first time it took me over 30 minutes maybe it will speed up as I get more familiar with the product. I have light skin and dark hair which is the perfect candidate as well for this product. I've always considered laser hair removal but couldn't really afford it I would say this product is better than other products used for shaving. I like the results I got from it and I would recommend this to my family and friends. I'm one who has to shave everyday and this product after one use I noticed hardly any stubble for up to 5 days which is a big improvement for me. I will have to continue using this product for the 12 weeks to see full results but so far I love it. It doesn't hurt its just a tidiest process but I'm willing to do it to see results in hair reduction. I like that this product is made for your whole body pretty much as well anywhere hair grows. I would purchase this product over other products while its a bit more pricey I like better results. I was not aware of this product before participating in this program,
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excited for the long-term results

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Braun Silk Expert Pro 3 PL3111 IPL says it works for 300,000 flashes which can be up to 16 years for one person. It is super easy to use. I recommend wearing sunglasses while using just to be extra safe. I did not experience any side effects and it is not painful at all. You hear a zap and see a red light flash. I've only used this twice and it says 12 weeks are needed to determine results so I will continue using and hope to find I have less hair. It is important to read all of the directions and precautions to make sure this is right for you. I received a free product in exchange for my honest review.

This product is great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The way you use the Braun Silk Expert Pro 3 is you plug it in no batteries or charger required. You want to remove all hair first . Then make sure your skin is nice and clean . This device will measure your skin tone and will set the correct power needed for you. Press the treatment button and your treatment will begin. You have to go spot by spot till done. You will need to use once a week for 12 weeks to start .Then you can use once a month after the 12 weeks is up. I have had great results with this device. If you are looking to remove hairs for good on your body I would highly recommend.

Love this!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this product and so glad I've tried it. I have thick brown hair and have had issues with excess hair that annoyed me ever since I was a child. I have tried creams, waxing, shaving.. it all gets monotonous and kind of frustrating after awhile. I was interested in trying this specifically for my upper lip and my underarms. This was relatively comfortable to use and I started noticing a decrease in hair growth in about 2 weeks. I'm still using it and hopefully will continue seeing progress!

Amazing!!

from Wrightwood ca
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's only been a few weeks and already my body hair is getting more sparse. It doesn't hurt at all and the laser knows when it's already been over an area so you don't go over it again. I absolutely love this product! It's really helping with my PCOS body hair. Thank you Braun!

Better than epilating.
on February 4, 2020
Posted by: EmiRose
from Waverly, Ohio
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After around 2-3 years of epilating, my hair had, for whatever reason, started to grown in ingrown. Around 50% of the hair on my legs was coming in ingrown and I had to give up epilating for good.
The fact that people seem to confuse IPL and epilating is ridiculous to me!
Epilating was beyond painful, and most of the progress could be undone with a month of shaving.
I have thick, course hair, and very light skin, and it made my hair very noticeable when it grew in.
Even immediately after shaving, you could still see my hair follicles as little dots under my skin, and my underarms had this 5'clock shadow, I hated it, and that was why I had turned to epilating, despite it being so painful.
Using an IPL has been head and shoulders above epilating, it's faster, painless (in my case), and super effective! I'm only a month of use in, and I could easily get away with skipping my next treatment without anyone noticing the hair! My hair is growing in very thin and light and much more slowly, and at least 40% isn't growing in at all between treatments!
I've never had laser hair removal (despite considering it numerous times)
But I can't imagine it being but more effective than this IPL. I'm in love with it!

I was really skeptical, but this actually works

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used this on my underarms for a couple months and the hair is barely there anymore. You cannot have red, blonde, or gray hair, which it states on the packaging. I would definitely recommend.
