Tweezers for your body hair!
on August 8, 2024
Posted by: cynthias286
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I can tell that this will be my staple item for ‘shaving’ my legs. This is more like a tweezing. It’s reusable- it’s battery efficient. You just turn it on and it goes! There’s a couple settings for high medium and low strength. It’s going to take some time to get use to it on my armpits. The legs are easy!! Takes the hair right off from the root. But the armpits hurt the first few times but then it gets easier!

Great shaving tool
on August 8, 2024
Posted by: allyj39
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tool is great to use. You can use under water which makes the shaving process less painful without risk of it short circuiting or breaking. The battery lasts for over 30 minutes. It has different speed settings which are helpful to shave at one’s own pace. Lastly, you can go for a month without shaving after using the epilator which is awesome.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Braun silk-epil 9 flex is a great epilator. You can tell the epilator is made with high quality. It is a great epilator it does a great job leaving my skin feel nice and smooth. It also has a great batter life. Additionally it’s not super loud.

Interesting shaving experience!!!
on August 8, 2024
Posted by: maktastic
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product feels so smooth on the skin, I cannot wait for more use. Battery life seems to be ok, will have to see how long it lasts. It's quite and does a good job. I am not sure how well it will stay clean, too many spots for hair to get stuck. It had two attachments for delicate area use and normal leg shaving

Amazing for you use on the go
on August 8, 2024
Posted by: danddloves
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The battery life was really good. The versatility is amazing precision. It's a good quick touch up if you need to like shave something on the go really quickly. The cleaning is amazing. I can take it apart, clean up everything. The automatic pluck attachment that I personally won't lose too often. But it's amazing for people that do.

Great razor!
on August 10, 2024
Posted by: brenw5
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This BrAun razor offers efficient hair removal with both epilating and shaving functions. It's versatile, with attachments for different body areas, and features like a pivoting head and built-in light to enhance precision. Its cordless design makes it convenient and easy to use, making it a reliable choice for long-lasting smoothness. I personally use the shaver more than the epilator as I find the epilator is a bit harsh for my sensitive skin.

Beautiful device but this process is not for everyone
on August 10, 2024
Posted by: nbreuer04
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tool has a fair shot. I’ve never used an epilator and have only used a razor to get rid of body hair. I’ve thoroughly researched epilating, the process and the technique. The most alluring part was using this once a month would mean I didn’t have to worry about shaving ever again! I got to know all of the features and began to use it on my legs. I followed the instructions and couldn’t withstand the pain. I tried several times and it was painful enough for me to vow to never use it again. It’s an extremely painful process. For the people who have used an epilator, I would start with something less expensive just to get an idea of the pain level. However, most people have said epilating gets easier in terms of pain after each use. For me, it was unbearable. This particular device is probably the one of the best I’d imagine would be on the market. If it was unbearable for me then I can’t recommend the process but that doesn’t do this actual product justice. I’d recommend it for those who have tried this process already. This device is on the higher-end technology wise so pick it up if you have extra money to spend or if you simply want to invest in a good quality device.
Response from influenster.comBy Customer Care, August 13, 2024
Thank you for your review. We're sorry to hear you didn't have the amazing experience we want for you with Braun Silk-epil 9 Flex. Please be assured that safety is our top priority, and all our products are thoroughly evaluated to be safe when used as directed.
In case this helps, here are some tips:
As the epilator removes hair from the follicle, there is bound to be some discomfort. If it’s been a while since you’ve epilated, shave your longer hairs first. After 1 or 2 weeks, the re-growth of short hairs will be much easier to epilate.
Have a bath or shower before epilating. This makes the hair easier to remove. As the Braun Silk-epil 9 Flex is a Wet & Dry model, we recommend epilating while bathing.
Warm water relaxes and soothes the skin. The warmth improves your circulation, stimulates pain-reducing substances and makes your skin less sensitive. So the tugging sensation is considerably reduced in water.
For best results, start epilating after relaxing in warm water for about 5 minutes. Hold your leg and the epilator under the water. Your hairs will then lift up, making them especially easy to grip.
Epilate slowly. It should take approximately 15 minutes to do each leg.
Try not to press the tweezers to the skin.
If this doesn't help, then we recommend discontinuing use.
Also, if you wouldn't mind sharing more details with our team, we'd love to hear from you at 1-800-272-8611.

Good
on August 11, 2024
Posted by: shannons511
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a good epilator it’s precise pretty easy to clean and has a decent battery life. I gave it 4 stars because epilators are more painful than razors but it gives you a closer shave and pulls hair from root so the skin is more smooth so it’s worth it long term!
