I'm so exciting
5I will say honestly that before the first use of Braun silk-epil 9 I was terrified. The depilator I used earlier caused pain during the procedure. After depilation I always had red pustules. This time it was different. I recommend to all women who value accuracy and delicacy. Epilation is pure pleasure. From now I can take care of my legs while lying in a bathtub with warm water. Shaver is ideal for intimate places. However, the most wonderful part of this set are massage tips. The skin after them is smooth and elastic. In my opinion, this epilator is a great device. I will not exchange it for another model.

Braun silk-épil 9 SkinSpa epilator
4Recently I had an opportunity to try out Braun Silk-épil 9 SkinSpa. Previously I was using series 7 and I have to admit that series 9 is well worth buying. It has extra wide epilation head that is very effective. However it is more effective when used on dry legs than in bath. I have tried this epilator in bath and it was a bit dissapointing. Wet hair stick to the skin and epilator could not catch them all, although epilation in bath is less painful. The big advantage of series 9 SkinSpa is a big choice of accessories which you get with this epilator. The set contain: epilator with 3 different caps, shaver head, brush adapter, 2 brushes and trimmer. After a full charge epilator works for 50 minutes. This is enough to shave legs up to the knees but if you want to shave whole legs, you would have to recharge the device, what is a bit annoying as you have to wait for 2 hours. If it comes to the brushes- you have choice of 2- one is the exfoliation brush and the other one is the deep massage pad. To be honest I can felt no difference between them, but both are pleasant to use. If it comes to the shaver head it is doing a good job. It has 1 additional comb that let you trim hair. The trimmer is small, good quality and it has 2 combs. The huge advantage of Braun Silk-épil 9 SkinSpa is that you have 3 devices in 1 plus a compact designed trimmer. It will not take much space. The set contains many pieces. It is nice that Braun provides a wee pouch that can hold everything what you will get with this set. In conclusion, Braun Silk-épil 9 SkinSpa epilator is a very good device in a good price. I would recommend it to enyone.

The best epilator out there right now!
5As someone who has been using epilators for many years now, I can confidently say I know what I require from an epilator and the Braun Silk-épil 9 9/980 Wet&Dry epilator is it! Epilating is of course never an entirely pleasant experience but the latest Braun Silk-epil does its best to improve this experience for us all. The extensive additional features for this epilator means that everything you could require for hair removal is all in one perfectly packaged product. I particularly liked the deep exfoliation brush and massage cap, but most of all I was thrilled to find it included the 3 in 1 trimmer and combs! This is such a handy additional feature and frankly i'm not sure why my previous epilators didn't include this, it seems essential now! The facial cap is also a particular highlight, allowing for closer precision hair removal whilst still feeling safe and secure to use on the more sensitive parts of your body such as your face. Overall this epilator along with all the useful additions that come with it is really the ideal hair removal package and I am very pleased with it - especially as it can be used wet and dry, what's not to love! I highly recommend this to anyone looking for an epilator that will do the job not only quickly, but efficiently too!

Braun Silk épil 9 SkinSpa Epilator
5At first I was sceptical, as I have used products of this kind before, and have gotten low quality results, but this product honestly surprised me. It was much more precise than the ones I've used before, and it left a stunningly smooth result. Unlike every-day razors, it didn't leave any marks on my skin, and few days after the use my legs are still super smooth! It can be used both in a shower and out of it, which is a huge plus! The charging time compared to usage time is practically nothing, it's simply a great product! The interchangeable ends are a lifesaver, and they are so easy to change and use, plus it's very easy to clean. Overall, every aspect of the Braun Silk-épil 9 SkinSpa Epilator is of the highest quality, and I would highly recommend it to everybody.

Braun Silk-épil 9 9/980 SensoSmart
4I have been using epilators for over 10 years now and I have not found one yet that is pain free - including this one! However the more you use the less the pain. When you open the box you will find lots of parts and attachments for this epilator and that can be a little confusing. BUT inside the front cover of the user guide is a really helpful diagram which pictures all the attachments and shows what they should be used for. The epilator itself does have a good wide head which means you can cover more area of your body with each run. It even has a fairly bright light on it which helps to spot those hairs. Personally I have found the epilator removes more hair when I don't use any of the caps and you can't hurt yourself with it because as soon as you press to hard onto your skin the light turns red until you release the pressure. It's cordless and can be used in the shower, bonus you can just rinse the epilator under the tap when you've finished. I love the exfoliating brushes and I use them a lot. The bikini trimmer is much like any other but it works very well. You even get a couple of drawstring bags to store everything in. As I said earlier, I have used epilators for years - this one is by far the best I've tried.

A little disappointing
3Before trying this product I was already familiar with Silk Epil epilators. My current epilator was the Silk-epil wet and dry so I was very excited to try out the latest model with the extra attachments. The overall performance of the machine was pretty similar to the one I currently use, the light was handy to see what hairs I have missed and the 2 speeds are good for epilating different parts of your body. Battery - I charged the battery up overnight before using the epilator however it seemed to start running out and beeping at me after 30 minutes of use. I'm not sure if this is the about of time the battery allows you but if it is, then it is not long enough. I tried the epilator again yesterday and didn't get any beeping however I did use it for a shorter period of time. Massage Head - Just like the head on my old epilator I didn't really rate this one. It says it is designed to stimulate the skin for a more comfortable experience however I found it hindered the epilation and so I had to keep going over the same area again and again. After 10 minutes of using it, I took it off and used the basic epilation head to finish off. Exfoliation Brushes - I really love these brushes, the deep one I use on the areas of my legs that I suffer from in grown hairs, it's also a great way to lazily exfoliate parts of your body. The soft brush I have been loading up with face wash and giving myself a little face exfoliation/massage. Shaver Head - Another of the attachments to I don't rate. The trimmer at the front works perfectly and chops off any and all hairs of a certain length that it comes into contact with but the shaver really lets the side down. Even after going over hairs again and again it just doesn't get them which is why I'll be leaving this one on the bag. Skin contact and facia cap - These caps allow you to get a really close epilation whilst offering some precision and protection at the same time. They're brilliant for people who are new to epilating under arms. The smaller cap allows for a smaller area to be epilated rather than taking off large areas of hair. The large normal one is the one I usually use for epilating my legs, offers protection but a nice close job. Trimmer - Loved the trimmer, helps to keep things neat and tidy or just a very simple way to trim down longer hairs. Really simple but works well. Overall I was left a little disappointed with this item, I think the heads that set this epilator apart from the one I currently have is the brushes. They offer a solution to a problem that comes along with epilating (in grown hairs). The other heads unfortunately just don't function at a good enough standard or offer anything extra to the epilator. I still love this epilator and will be replacing the one I had with this new one however some of the fancy new heads will not be getting used again.

Silky Smooth
5This epilator is definitely a head turner. I used to epilate but because of problems the epilator caused to my skin, I turned back to shaving. However, due to the sheer intricacy and attention to detail that has been put into this product, I was intrigued to give it a try, and it definitely has not disappointed!! The epilator came packaged beautifully in a compact, neatly designed little box. This epilator is cordless and has attachments for everything that you could possibly need, and(!) can be used either wet or dry. Its a light device which makes it easy to use and handle, however, be careful when using it wet as it can get a little slippery. The epilator itself has a useful little light so you can clearly see what you are doing and if you have missed any bits, the epilator lifts the shortest of hairs leaving you with silky smooth skin and no need to go back over and over making sure you got it all. The bikini trimmer attachments are small enough and appropriate for the intimate areas again, making sure nothing has been missed. This epilator has attachments to just about cover everything but these are the main ones I have used so far and I have definitely been converted back from shaving. The product charges quickly which is really useful if you have forgot to charge it in advance, so you havent got to hang around in order to use. The only obvious down side to this product is the price, however, if epilating is something your interested in, its definitely worth the investment! Very happy with this epilator.

Hairfree!!!
5I think the Braun silk epil 9 is the best product out there for keeping me hair free. It is precise and can be used on shorter hairs then if you were waxing your legs. It is cordless and with the added benefit of being able to be used in water so great to use in the shower. It has a light sensor so that you know you are applying the right amount of pressure and comes with every attachment you would ever need as well as a deep or gentle exfoliation brush. I am in love with this product and my hair free body that is very easily maintained!!!

Impressive
5Not only does the box contain an epilator but also a shaver head, body brushes, bikini trimmer, facial cap and a few other bits and bobs, along with 2 handy bags to keep everything neat and tidy. Such an impressive array of items that cover each area of the body. The epilator can be used wet or dry so it’s especially handy for when you’re in a hurry and need to use it in the shower or bath. Its rechargeable so you can use it anywhere, no more annoying cables to contend with. I’m not going to lie, it does hurt a bit to epilate but after the first couple of times the pain does ease and isn’t an issue. It’s a lot quieter than my previous model and I like the new facial cap, I just need to pluck up the courage to use it! The light doesn’t really help for me and I would have liked the option to be able to use it whilst it was plugged in but other than that it’s definitely the best epilator on the market, highly recommended.

Braun Silk - epil 9 9/980 4 i
5I love this epilator by Braun it’s the best one I have ever used it is an epilator shaver and exfoliator. The instructions are Comprehensive, it’s very pretty and easy to use . I love the addition of a light which makes it easier to highlight any unwanted hair . You can use wet or dry which is brilliant when in the shower or bath . I am really impressed with the results and pleasantly surprised that it is quite painless . One of the other things I like about this product is it comes with a couple of bags which make it easy to take when traveling. It is expensive to purchase but I think it is well worth the money considering all the attachments and efficiency. It leaves my skin soft and silky and Is a great experience I would highlight recommend .
