Customer Reviews of Braun SE7781 Silk-Epil Xpressive Epilator Body System, Rechargeable
Customer Review: OUCH
Summary: 2 Stars
UPDATE: I have to change my rating because this thing is just ridiculously painful. I use it only on the shaver setting. Tried it a couple more times as an epilator and it's just not worth the pain, especially since it takes many passes to get all the hair. I also continued to get all sorts of ingrown hairs with it. I went through a year's worth of laser treatments (COMPLETELY PAINLESS, BTW) in my bikini area and I would recommend anyone try that rather than this. Unfortunately, I still have hair, since that won't get rid of everything either (blonde & fine hair is difficult to target). I bought a home laser removal system (HPL) but haven't kept at it consistently so I can't tell you if it works or not, but I plan to give it a go. $500 for the machine whereas my office treatments cost almost $1000, and I can use this machine on any areas I want. Check it out, and good luck!

4 stars instead of 5 because of the pain. Yes, it hurts. It hurts a lot. And it takes a little time to get the hang of it, and it takes a lot of guts to keep going, but once you decide to do so, the results are great. I just finished using my epilator for the first time tonight (full bikini area). I used it until it needed to be recharged, so I was at it quite awhile. It does take several passes to get all of the hairs, but I'm sure I'll be more efficient at it with time. I tried different caps and found the normal massaging head was the best. The beginner cap was OK, but removes so little hair at one time, it's sort of like prolonging the torture. I did switch to the beginner cap for awhile in the middle, though, when I needed a bit of a break! Near the end, I was much more confident and had conquered the pain. Part of that's because it's less painful the less hair you have. I will definitely not let all my hair grow out again! I had shaved about a week ago -- which is just as time-consuming, leads to prickly stubble, and is a lot more dangerous in such a delicate area! -- so the hair was all about the recommended length of 2-3 mm. Luckily hair grows at different rates and I should be able to remove it in stages from now on, as it starts to grow back.
Anyway, the area is now smooth as silk, but it was a lot of work. You have to be tough to get through this! Unlike a salon wax, you aren't going to get all the hair yanked out in a few quick motions. It takes awhile. But you also won't have to allow the hair to grow out as much as you do in between waxes, and you won't have to pay $48 for the service. I also feel like I am more thorough. I had my first bikini wax at a salon recently and loved the immediate result, but it didn't last as my skin almost immediately became irritated and I was plagued with constant ingrown hairs as it grew back. I am hoping to have better luck with the epilator and so far it feels better. I also ordered Princereigns gel to counteract ingrown hairs, but I haven't received it yet.
One last note: the first area I tried to epilate was my underarm. I don't know why, but the pain was excruciating and I couldn't take it. I gave up and moved on to the bikini area of all places. Of course I was much more determined to complete the bikini area since it's the reason I bought this product, and I don't mind shaving my underarms every day.
