Best Braun Grooming Epilators

I’ll be honest, I’d never used an epilator before and was a bit nervous about how painful it would be. I can’t rave enough about this epilator. I… Read more

bought the set with the shaver and massager which are also great. I have extremely fine blonde hair and wasn’t sure how well it would tweezer such fine hair. The light is extremely useful to help me find these. I don’t even feel it mostly. I used to shave my legs every second day as I hate the feeling of prickly legs against sheets. Yes, you have to go slow and go over the leg a couple of times to get baby smooth skin, but if I was going to a deserted island, this would be coming with me! My only regret, why didn’t I find this baby sooner. I could have saved so much money on razors! Highly recommend!

I'm very happy – I've made the effort to jump on and leave a review because I was a bit unsure after reading some negative reviews. This thing is awesome and just… Read more

saved me a lip wax!! My last salon visit, the wax couldn't get all the smaller hairs and I felt I'd wasted my money. So I invested in this epilator and it pulled them out beautifully! I'm very happy.

Yes, it hurts the same as tweezing or waxing.

Not as good as I thought it would be – I was given a Braun Silk Epil 5 (Type 5391) for my birthday. I had used an Epilator for years and as my old one wasn’t working that well anymore I… Read more

thought it was time to upgrade. This Epilator is easy to use. It’s rechargeable and is easy to hold. It comes apart to change different hair removal methods and is easy to clean. The issue I have with it is that it grabs my skin virtually every time I use it. It’s painful for a moment and leaves a red mark on my skin. I’ve tried all sorts of ways to prevent that happening ie applying as little pressure as possible and stretching my skin taut but it still happens on a regular basis. I never once had this problem with my old epilator and I wish I still had the old one now. I also find patches of hair that still haven’t been removed after using it for ten minutes and more. I love using an Epilator, it beats shaving hands down. It hurts a lot when you first try it but if you take things slowly you find that it’s less painful as time goes on. Well worth persisting if you can find the right gadget.

I purchased the Braun Silk-épil 9 Flex 3D from Amazon Australia in December 2022 for approximately $279. After about three years of normal household… Read more

use, the epilator head suffered a structural breakage, making the device unusable. This was not battery wear or gradual decline, it was a physical failure of the head assembly. I contacted Braun seeking a replacement head. Instead of addressing the durability issue, I was referred to an authorised service centre because the product is outside the 2-year warranty. For a premium appliance in this price range ,especially one advertised as being designed to last several years, this outcome is disappointing. I also contacted Amazon as the retailer, but the issue remains unresolved. Based on this experience even though I was the braun customerfor more than 20 years, I will not be purchasing Braun products again.

Okay but motor doesn't last – Does a good job, but now it is only working in one directio and only very very slowly at that. The motor is failing. It is about 2 to 3 years old,… Read more

but I only use it around once a fortnight so that is not very many uses. About 78. Even weekly use it would only be around 156 uses and it was quite expensive. Now it needs to be replaced I won't be buying another of the same brand.
