Beauty requires sacrifice or not? Epilator Braun Silk Epil 9 Wet&Dry Epilator - review

A technique that threw me tremble with fear!




To begin to tell about the device and the configuration, and then tell me about your experience.

The device comes in box, with charger, manual and attachments, all as expected.


The shaver is very ergonomic, it has a smooth shape, so that it is comfortable to hold in hand.


Turns on/off by turning the wheel in the center. He fixed other small wheels, so I accidentally turn it on and pull yourself not the hair will be difficult.


The main nozzle, which is already wearing the appliance, is the main is the massage attachment with a wide grip.


See the stripes on the sides? When enabled, they begin to vibrate and are designed to reduce the pain.
Also note a broad band of appliance — proven epilation head really is bigger and wider than usual, which allows one to remove more hair.
Also head "Playa" — ie, easily swivels up/down, repeating the curves of the body.

Also in my version there is a tip for better contact with the skin (e.g. skin of the armpits) and a head (narrow).


In addition there is a head shaver + comb for shaving.



Brush for cleaning the appliance.


So, he had a small appliance, which I mainly only used the trimmer, the first attempts of hair removal with a crash and a wet hand fear fell. It was terribly painful. A number of times I've epiderals sugaring, but he also did not give the expected results. Everyone was able to work with him, I have not. In the end, I went back to waxing.

But we're not looking for easy ways! And beauty requires determination and courage!
It was therefore decided — it is necessary to deal with them. Also very tired of frequent shaving. I wanted to remove the hair for a long time.

It was decided to start with the feet. I heard this idea, that the more often you use it, the less painful it becomes. The first time was painful, but bearable. Even somehow involved in the process. What to say. The epilator removes the hair very clean! First, a wide head removes hair almost immediately with a half-feet. Second, the massage nozzle slightly dulls the pain. Third, the tweezers of the epilator there are some special forms of, apparently, so they purely are all doing. There is nothing that walked the epilator, here and there sticking out the missed hairs. Each time was really less painful that way. I even became calmer waxing around the ankles and knees is the most painful place for me.

In relation to the hands. Yes, let's not write what he believes, it is necessary to epilate or not. I wanted hands on to try, especially before the holiday. Courageously walked with both hands. It hurt more than on my feet. Tangible! Now the hairs grew back, I stealthily approached him with the razor)) But I can't help feeling overcome and finish to the end, hurts all! Of course, long hair, first need to shave at least up to 5 mm or less. But even this does not help. Apparently, a more sensitive skin.

Further — more painful! Armpits. Oh no, don't even want to remember that one time when I decided on this. Hands all wet with excitement, and the first touch of the razor caused me to have a flick as of current!
Face the same thing — I find it easier to use a special spring for this, and the hair where I have almost none.

And, by the way, I do all this is at the 1st speed, didn't even try with the 2nd.
Then I went to a friend's professional sugaring underarms, very afraid, but the first hair removal went very smoothly. It was painful, but quite bearable. May be due to the fact that it was done by someone else, the most difficult. After that I again took the epilator and tried to do it myself. And you know, turned out quite nice! Not as painful as the first time. So definitely agree — the more you aphilliates, the less it will hurt.

So, about the appliance.
Considered big plus:

+ Wide field of appliance. It truly is far speeds up the process, and therefore less fear))
+ No wires
+ Use of water (although I'm doing the dry method)
+ Backlight (very important even during the day, because fine hairs are hard to see, and the backlight highlights them)

In General, I am very happy with my new friend and new experience!
I passed all stages of fun hair — from denial to gratification from the result.
Therefore, I can advise that:

1. If you are afraid — try busting yourself, endured several times. You will see that each time will be better and faster!
2. Do not tighten procedure, do wax regularly, don't let the hairs grow back. The shorter the better. Modern epilators grab the shortest.
3. For less pain can steam the skin, but do not RUB.
4. For less skin contact epilinum you can sprinkle the spot with baby powder.

Forward to beauty!

  • I have this epilator, after the previous, I have worked for 15 years, new direct runs invisibly on the skin:))) I still and bought with all the discounts and promotions - for 3 sput And armpits regularly epilinum, painless in hair removal. With all sugaring and other I just got tired of messing around. Epilator - my option.
  • Oh, for 3000 it's all free! I now also have two hands and feet (without the hair now, please note! ) for hair removal! It is quick, convenient and nearly pain-free. I just love it! Compared to my last is a miracle machine))
  • Tanya, I've been on him stare, tell me they need to use on steamed skin or just dry? And what length of hair he captures, what I mean is how long to grow will that he was able to capture?))))))))
  • You and so and so. I dry mostly. Capture a minimum, I think a couple of mm even.
  • thank you
  • it is written that captures hair as a grain of sand, and it's true
  • Armpits and legs abiliry the epilator without problems, but in the bikini area once tried, I thought I will die... not risking any more
  • But with this case I have the same problem, can not in any way))
  • I wedged a little bit, if you don't mind. There are special sprays pain relievers on the basis of menthol. From the company's Two lines of spray Activis even with the extracts helps to fight the irritation. It is best to spray on wet skin and after a few minutes freezing good. And bruises quickly dissolves and prevents the formation.
  • Life-affirming post! :-)I think a very good decision of the manufacturer about the lighting! She really needed.Underarms I barely feel it, I mean nothing at all. If you feel something, then simply Derg-Derg, without pain. But once even try didn't thought it would hurt. When I tried realized how much time fooled razor)))Feet too easy to go through, a little regret that the grip area is too narrow, I would like wider, so even faster it went.Never smeared waxing, I think this is the most important guarantee of the absence of irritation.With bikinis just need to be patient, of course, but overall quite acceptable, especially warm result, it is 100% worth the patience)The arms and the thighs do not touch — there transparent rare fluffy, almost like just a normal body luck.
  • Thank you! I also hands not anymore, just halfway through, we had to end to finish, eventually completed sugaring)) About the result for sure — I will warm myself with the thought, when I get close to sensitive areas))
  • I urgently need to change their "old man' but this price is what Ah Ah
  • Yes, the price is not small. But if I knew in advance how tough he is, I would go broke)) by the way There is and older version, they are cheaper, but I think not worse.
  • It's true, the 7 version is not much different, and with all these tips, I took a 5500 the other day and the difference that 5mm wider than the head, although petzeltov the same, and the 9 key charging stand, without which you can live. 9 key, more of a marketing promotion, but the differences are not significant, read for yourself
  • Suffer with acne for 15 years, I decided to try something new... and stopped shaving her legs:) And, you know, not painful, does not require time. A shudder only chickens on the Internet "kakakak is not to shave". And maybe sensitive Chicks on the beaches:) Read your post like an exciting Thriller. Thanks, it was interesting:)
  • Thank you! I'm just very sensitive to pain, so I was sure that it was not mine. It turned out I was wrong, and very glad!
  • Wow how rude you speak of those who are unable to use the epilator. People with low threshold of pain — now the chickens by definition? Thank you, I'll know.
  • Sorry got, I realized that the girl says that stopped to remove the hair on legs. And "sensitivity" — not physical pain, but emotional, to others unshaven legs.)
  • shortly about the main thing — grow hair, nothing helps. I know that this problem have many after hair removal, so either razor or sugaring.
  • Know about this problem. I regularly skroblus. I use it quite a lot and for a long time until observed.
  • I, too, after the appliance began to grow hair.This was incomparable legs.Shaved several years.Now wax and cream, they are less ingrowth.Scrub doesn't help me.Want to try a new epilator, but I'm afraid that once again all will grow... And so tired to grow.
  • That's how much time did the approach to the epilator, but the pain and that's it. And does not get any easier. I decided to try the wax and sugar. Imagine the surprise, when for me it was not painful. Moreover, the salon is very noticeable, unpleasant, and the houses generally not noticeable)
  • Probably just everyone needs to find their own) I would go for sugaring (home not work), but it's too expensive, it's easier for me at home when I'm comfortable in any position))
  • I also like this, only without the heads. I have very coarse hair and it either breaks off a little, or do not understand that... But after epilation there is no feeling of super smooth skin((((( maybe because Raza length hair. Have 2-3 days to repeat.
  • Should not break off. Try to grow them to a certain length, then shave, then epilate.
  • I have the 1 time. The fact that the head must be very firmly pressed to the skin, direct to press, even if it is painful and scary, but otherwise he'll just snap off. What else is he to do if down to the roots he never gets...
  • I would like to know, and if the anesthetic cream EMLA. It still hurts or not, somebody tried.
  • I 15 wanted to buy this stuff, but toad strangling me)) 400 per 5 ml or whatever? Decided to heroically stand))
  • EMLA is a super-solution! Inflicted, on top of food wrap, 15 min. and walked forward to the perfect armpits definitely worth buying it, if not to overcome the pain threshold or complacency)
  • I he half rips, the half breaks off...
  • The same nonsense, read the reviews, bought a Braun 7 series, but don't feel the sensation of absolute smoothness nor the feet or armpits. See some stumps, and a couple of times on armpits Sageville skin. Perhaps it is dry, it is necessary to try on a wet skin.
  • What a pity, I don't know why this could be. Maybe the length is not suitable or fast motion?
  • I tried everything — and on dry skin and wet, the result is the same, but in water only not as painful (to me personally at least))) And with length the curls on his feet were experimenting, nothing helps mom as well, by the way... Abydna...
  • So I have a similar situation...
  • In in, and I have the same thing...
  • Also bought a epilator, not 9, and 7 version, I think they are not much different, tweezers here and there 40, and the same nozzle, only cheaper)))) Also serves on this post, but until I get the bug, then lay out) Thank you for a beautiful post, it was interesting to read
  • Here I about that also wrote, if Yes, it is cheaper, slightly different, but I think it's not critical)
  • I read with interest Your post. I had a Silk-Epil, bought 15 (!!!) years ago, when I was 16-17 years old. It is interesting to note that the floating head is actually the shape of the tweezers, have not changed. My old epilator almost looks like Your new. Although I do not use it for a long time. First went to the waxing and about 3 years ago, it removed all the hair on legs, armpits, and area "Brazilian" laser. The only thing I really regret is that I didn't do this sooner. I understand that this post is about hair removal, but really want to recommend laser hair removal. This procedure definitely changed my life. Now I don't think I have done legs/armpits/bikini before you wear a skirt or bikini. Nothing itchy, no red inflamed bumps from hair growing and ingrown hairs. The skin is smooth, clean and hair.
  • I am afraid all these lasers and photo-waxing.
  • I first tried laser 10-12 years ago, when he just appeared in Moscow. Then I heroically endured one treatment in the bikini line. It hurt like hell, even after 3 tubes of EMLA cream. After that, I have had red, painful burns, I poured as much as 2 bottles of Panthenol. The horror! Now, of course, laser technology has made great strides. And of course the operation of laser devices is not the same as 10 years ago. I long feared, but a friend persuaded her to try to treat armpit laser Candela Gentlease. Bitter experience, I remember all the long faces in anticipation of hell! But everything went so quickly and almost painlessly that I couldn't believe it! Well, a year later, (about 8-10 treatments in each zone, and I have three of them), I am now quite "naked" :)))) and all What I want! Laser, certainly not for everyone, but try highly recommend. For me, the laser just changed my life and completely got rid of complexes, in connection with excess volosistogo...
  • Tell me, as far as result? I heard that you need to repeat constantly, of course enough for 2-5 years, each in its own way. And yet, maybe not a very good question, however — how much was it all fun to remove hair everywhere the laser a specified number of times?
  • You know, I'd really like to give an exhaustive answer, but this is difficult, as there are many different combinations. But I'll try to help.1) about the result: it all depends on a) the type of laser, which is processing, b) color of hair and skin colour, and b) places of treatment. About lasers: now there are several thousands of darkness. There are lasers and there are so-called photoepilation IPL. Now IPL (as far as I understand) less effective than lasers. IPL is already outdated system that is not very popular because of its low efficiency. Lasers also have many types. One of the most popular and effective at a given time are the Candela lasers. Their many varieties and generations, but of these there are two most popular: Candela GentleLase (popular among white women) and Candela GentleYAG (more suitable for dark and Asian skin). I did all treatments on the GentleLase. There is still quite a popular laser LightSheer, say effective, but I have not tried.About the skin: the ideal combination for laser is light skin and dark hair because the laser pulse "draws" color pigments. The lighter the skin, the higher the laser power, which will expose the beautician during treatments. And the higher the power, the faster permanent getting rid of hair. I have dark skin, so laser power I exhibited weaker, not to leave burns on the skin. But the procedures I needed more. About the place: if the area of skin treated by the laser is very hormonal (bikini, Brazilian, underarms), you will need more procedures. I have completely gone the hair on his legs for 5 or 6 treatments. Do not grow at all. And in the armpits and on Brazilian need 10-12 treatments. Through 6 months appeared 10-15 thin hairs (supposedly cannon). Went for another session and I had them removed. Everyone, of course, in different ways, but hair will not grow back until the hormones (pregnancy, menopause). And there's no guarantee that will happen.2) about the price: I, unfortunately, don't know about Russia, as did the laser in Australia. Regular prices for Candela GentleLase (in US dollars): Underarms and full Brazilian (clean): $380 for 6 sessions. Lower half leg (including knees and toes): $450 for 6 sessions. Sorry to be so long, but in short there is no way to tell:)))
  • Cut about laser hair removal. I still went only 4 treatments on my legs, but still no difference. I have been reading that the hairs something should fall out in a couple of days, but noticed nothing. Yes, and they can fall out, if a mandatory condition is to shave the legs the day before the procedure. While that's so ambiguous )
  • Great epilator, confirm! Generally I use the epilator for a long time: and underarms, legs and bikini. The razor would not change for sure!This appliance copes with its task! Lights-straight to the point!The only time — for me, all of these nozzles was absolutely useless, because I use only one which is for the best contact with the skin.So if it were possible to buy this epilator cheaper without all those attachments would be great!
  • Thanks for the comment. I use all but the front. Yeah, the thing is very cool!
  • Legs can shave seems to be tolerated, except ankle and knees but the armpit after a couple of samples as well, just from the current socious and can not, even scary to touch the skin of fear. Pro bikini is generally silent. Need to try the cream. He's in pharmacy or where they sell?
  • Yes, the pharmacy.And sugaring tried? Try to go to someone to wax it when someone else does, I think, is better experienced, than to hurt myself (purely emotionally hard).
  • I have 5 version of this unit, I'm happy. Also thinking about changing to 9 (between 7 version is)
  • They are cool, do brown respect in terms of technology. I have a lot of products under that brand, they work without breaking for several years.
  • tell me, and trimmer how well it copes with its task?
  • Yes, quite well! I missed this point, because rarely use it now that the hair does not have time to grow.
  • Thanks for the post!I have for over 10 years, also Braun Silk Epil is there. The first few months was painful — I actually screamed as a victim)) Then I used to feel pain after a break in atilirovanie. And, of course, I have epilator — just for feet, in other places — trimmer or razor, can't tolerate EPI-torture underarms/bikini.
  • I have everything as it was. Only now are all convinced now that we must endure, and in a bikini can't she))
  • I have from the appliance grow very much hair , especially on the feet. Then these areas appear bluish spots, which are not in a very long time. I switched to shaving, and is now doing herself sugaring! And it's just lovely lovely! Unlike the epilator doesn't hurt almost at all the armpits in one motion, bikini, legs! I love it! And most importantly, no more ingrown hairs!
  • I like sugaring, but at home I have somehow failed. And to go somewhere so it turns out too expensive, and time consuming. Although this is a good option.
  • Too early and the sugaring was done, and epilation removed. Razor was all a nightmare. From vretania did not help either brushes or hard sponges Japanese. Started going to laser. I am very sorry that I haven't done before. Threw all the trimmings. But the subject I want to say that the pain is quite tolerable when applying the epilator, you get used quickly. Served me faithfully for over 10 years and is now alive.
  • Yes, I agree about habituation. Thanks for shared opinion!
  • Many years used the epilator (armpit generally painless, foot — tolerant, bikini hell of hell, and, unlike armpits, get used to it it is impossible :-) ), and then noticed that the feet appeared pigmentation — small black dots in the places of hair growth, and ingrown hairs over time stronger and stronger. Therefore, put aside, moved to the machine (pigmentation, alas, not disappeared). So you need to carefully monitor the condition of the skin and not to miss the moment if suddenly something not that.This year decided on a laser, and I'm very, very sorry that I didn't do it years earlier.
  • Thank you! For some reason I'm afraid of all these experiments with the skin, I don't know, I think the laser and photo-epilation is not very natural for the skin.
  • Congratulations on such a successful experience! I recently preobrela 7 series. I use it in the water. Heaven and earth compared with the dry way and the pain is less, and faster, and no irritation
  • I tried in water, I somehow uncomfortable)
  • Was BRAUN Silk-epil 7-751 WD. First: operation time of only 30 minutes, I lacked in a full"cycle"of hair removal, and to be recharged (3 hours) and continue, not an option; Second, a year later, broke the charge;Third: later the same year, the battery was missed by only 15 minutes, full charge time increased to 6 hours Fourth: the me epilator the hairs are not pulled out, and breaks off at the root... In short, a complete disappointment! I bought another brand and no frills, yet happy))
  • Yes, very sorry! To me this is what we liked is that while the charge lasts a very long time, even a few full waxing, not to mention one area, ie charge I rarely.
  • Perhaps you have broken the battery was initially, it is not 3 hours to charge, I have even less hours, and lasts for an hour to wax. So most lemon battery you have stood, perhaps in consequence of this and broke the charger.
  • Did you try the speed with a tool like a foam or cream
  • With them better?
  • I use an old model Braun on the underarms and bikini. On the legs do not matter — grow hair much. But my point is, I want to recommend to girls who are in pain, to try harder to pull the skin on epilinum region. I don't contrived — it was too painful, and now, Yes, feeling, but acceptable. Still such trick — the bikini area on the front I carefully removed all the excess with tweezers (since noticed that these highly sensitive areas due to the direction of rotation pincetto epilator against the hair growth, irritation on the skin lasts very long), but on the inside of the thigh — epilator. Also helped me make friends with the epilator after using it baby powder — irritation goes much faster.
  • Yeah, the skin definitely needs to be pulled.And I also want powder to try.
  • Oh, girls, you all inspired me to buy a new epilator (sitting looking out the Internet prices). Now I use my old Braun, now 12. Feet normally stand, used, bikini chokes up blood, armpit finally tin. It seemed to me that the same will be with any epilator, but after reading the reviews-maybe true now new technology and they are more gentle on the skin. And armpit wax I bear absolutely fine, but home again, not get the most (( Why, then, does it hurt? I will try this, what happens))))
  • I have also did house of wax fails. And the epilator was fine — they are easier to wield))100% is a matter of habit, try on a small area to suffer a few times, approach 3-4, will see then will be much easier!
  • I'm sure almost 100% that the case in the old brown, new technology and forceps appliance very differently behaving. Argue with own experience and that of friends.
  • I have an old, head is the same as here on the photo with no attachments, only the tongs are all metal. Not "bite" :)
  • Metal and maybe even better.I'm a very bad record in terms of hair removal, I really 3,5 hairs.And I'm the one that causes excitement, but fear to praise, girls with a different cover will be not as "good" as me.My sisters, for example, even a shave can not, this irritation almost boils. Therefore, in such subjects is better for me to remain silent, is very different.
  • How nice that you came, and I had a Braun epil forces, but after that I had terrible irritation, which then took 4 days, then appeared ingrown hairs, so still with the epilator I broke up, and now do sugaring professional line shugaring Aravia and that from it there is no irritation or ingrown hairs.
  • The horror. But great that you found your way!
