Silk-épil 9-002 Flex

I tried epilating before and it was hell. I watched a YouTube on going eco and epilation instead of disposable razors made sense to me. So I thought ok... I was like 19yrs the last time I tried, so I found a good deal on this model and took the plunge.Never looking back!I'm not going to lie, it was very painful to start with, but most reviews said the pain would lessen in time and they were right.I've been using it about 4 months now and I shave so rarely I stopped my subscription for razors heads. No more individual packets to throw away after use.I know nothing is eco perfect but I'm kinda sad that I didn't give it more of a go years ago, I could of far reduced my impact on the Earth in all those years. Ian nearly 40yrs now.However, I think in general epilators have just gotten better.This one I use on my legs, my under arms, some of my bikini line (tops of thighs and crease) and even my chin. I do have the smaller one for my top lip but I find the big one is just as gentle and manouverable on the chin and neck.The hair grows back less dark, I'm pale skinned with very dark hair and to be fair the re growth is almost a light blonde now. I don't ever have stubble, just a downy covering and often I don't realise it's grown back because I always feel soft.Best benefit has been my under arms and chin.I literally love it. Yes I still get the sweats when I think it might trap my skin etc. And once it drew blood, a very stubborn hair, but nothing has hurt so much or turned out so bad, so I would say take it slow. Start with taught patches of skin, closer to the ankles, remember to stretch skin as you go.I prefer using it dry as efficiency is better but I do use wet in the shower and bath and this is ok too.Often have to use the small brush provided to clean it or run it in water with head submerged to give it a proper clean. Lasts longer than 50mins I reckon and I've never run out of battery yet. When I do, I charge it straight away and it's ready for next time.I use it about twice a week, or every other depending on what I'm doing and how active I'm feeling!It's a great product and definitely epilators have come a long way since the 1990's!

Perfect

I like the epilator. It does the job. I am happy having it.

This is a huge improvement from the Silkepil 5 that I’ve previously used. Great that it is rechargeable & can be used in the bathroom & in the shower. Very effective & would highly recommend. I’ve epilated now for over 20 years & experience little or no discomfort using this product. Quick delivery - thank you!

It's very very good but the only thing is you can't use it plugged in and the battery low warning is so poor that ive had skin trapped in it when it runs out of power and have given myself blisters from doing this.It is pretty much painless apart from the bikini line which hurts like a mf but is very well worth it as there are no ingrowns and no itchiness. Going to buy lidocaine cream next time.

This is so much better than I was expecting. I have always used Braun epilators, but I was concerned that the swivel head on this one might make it less controllable, but that isn't the case at all. It's great for all your curvy bits and the battery life is amazing! I've not charged it since I got it several weeks ago and I've used it on my legs twice and small areas like armpits, side burns, arms about 6 times. Very happy.

I've had a few silk-epils in my time but this is by far the best, the moveable head makes such a difference. The battery so far has lasted me doing my arms, legs and bikini line twice over and still not had to charge. Brilliant product!

I am very unhappy, I had to send the unit off for repair and they send it back as working. The unit is still not working, simply did not charge, and there seems to be no option to return it again.I am so done with Brown.I paid a lot of money and simply expecting some lifetime and service.I would give the product all stars, the aftercare non.

l'emballage ne parait pas neuf !!! la petite brosse verte est manquante !!! état neuf : j'en doute !!!

Me encanta, depilarme es comodo,rapido y facil.

Bei feinen Haaren muss Mann bis zu 10 Mal überrasieren damit sie alle kurz sind. Daher ist der für mich nicht geeignet und geht zurück.Ich wollte mein 15 Jahre altes Braun Modell austauschen! Das brauche ich aber nicht da die Schneidqualität sehr ähnlich ist.Nach meiner Meinung hat Braun sich kaum verbessert.

Ho ricevuto il prodotto nei tempi menzionati, su quello nulla da dire.Peccato che ci abbia messo qualche giorno a poterlo utilizzare, poichè mi è arrivato con una presa inglese (non segnalato da nessuna parte) e ci ho messo un paio di giorni a trovare un adattatore che funzionasse...fate attenzione a quando acquistate...per questo assegno 3 stelle.il prodotto è comodo da usare e funziona correttamente

Produit reçu avec emballage déchiré. Impossible de s'en servir en France sur prise électrique standard. Dommage de ne pas l'avoir indiqué sur la fiche d'information du produit cela aurait eviter un retour en Angleterre !
