I started using this 3 months ago and at first I thought it was fab. I could feel it working, little elastic bands pinging onto my underarms is how it felt. However, after doing exactly aas the instructions said for 2 months I decided to see what would happen if I stopped shaving as, by then, it should have worked. Low and behold, dark brown hairs began to grow again! So I tried again for another month and I'm still having the hair regrowth.

I was very sceptical about this product but omg... it really works! It's pricey but in the long run it is so worth it! I hardly ever have to shave my legs now. Five it a try!

I do believe I'm a perfect candidate for this item. I'm so pale I'm practically transparent and my hair is that thick dark brown that loves to grow back quick, thanks to my mother's Serbian DNA. (eye roll) I've used this item for five weeks, every Sunday. Its fantastic. Definitely seeing results. I'm not use to shaving, odd concept. Waxing was my thing but I don't care if it means I can hang up the wax strips and razor. Well done Braun for making a quality product, that works. For those that aren't sure, just double check your skin and hair compatibility. Braun don't hide what types work better with this little device. Good luck, my soon to be carefree hairless Braun groupies. Stay safe everyone

I had the chance to try the Braun IPL 5 by participating to a project. I selected to try the device on my lower legs, underarms and bikini area. I couldn't believe how well it worked! After a couple of weeks I started seeing some hair reduction, specially in the legs. After 5 weeks, I can barely see new hair coming in the legs. Bikini area is being more stubborn so I still have more weeks to go there. However, i'm really pleased with this #gifted product. It doesn't hurt at all and it takes me 5 minutes to do it all.

I was #gifted this IPL as part of a promotion which was great as I always fancied one but never treated myself. I really wish I had got one sooner. As I was a beginner I started with my legs and within a couple of weeks I noticed significant reduction in hair growth so while continuing with my legs I also started with my underarms . For me it did take the whole 12 week course to notice almost complete hair loss but I rarely need to shave now and when it does grow the hair is soft. On my armpits and bikini I did need to use the softer setting as there was a slight pinch but it all it was pretty pain free. Treatment only take about 10 mins and very easy to use.  I would recommend! 

I was #gifted this product to try and I am very surprised with the results. I didn't think it would be that effective but I saw a reduction in hair in just four weeks and having used this product for longer the hair is so much finer and there is less of it. It only takes about ten minutes to do my legs and in my experience I found it completely pain free. I would definitely recommend this for anyone looking for a long lasting solution to unwanted hair.

I was kindly #gifted the Braun IPL Silk Expert Pro5 and I am absolutely amazed with the results  In just 4 weeks I noticed significant hair reduction and as someone who has pcos I can honestly say this has changed my life having dealt with unwanted hair growth since being a teenager  I really do wish I’d got myself one earlier

#gifted I was gifted one of these and thought it would be a major gimmick, it has changed my life! I did my underarms weekly and could see the difference within a fortnight. 12 weeks in, I hardly ever shave now. Absolute game changer!

I was supper lucky and receive Braun Silk-expert Pro 5 for the test (gifted), but i will share my own real story! I'm very hairy dark brunet with white skin girl. Till this year i had lots of problems with my unwanted hair all over my body (legs, bikini, hands, underarms and my face). I shaved my legs every 2-3 days, wax my face every 3-4 days... i spent so many time just for removing hair. I think - it's not good! At the same time i never use IPL products as i though that it's very unhealthy and painful, and doesn't meter that many girls/ladies use IPL and still alive:) When i received Braun Silk-expert Pro 5 for test i was very sceptic that it will work. But after 3 weeks time i already starting to see less hair on my body (where i used it). After another 3 weeks (using 6 weeks, once a week) i saw that i don't have my underarms hair so i don't have what to shave before new procedure. My skin more smooth, soft and without black dots (i hate this)!!!! Now i'm ready for holidays without waxing!!! *specially in bikini area)) After 10 weeks - i'm fully in shock and now recommend Braun Silk-expert Pro 5to all my friends.

I was very fortunately gifted this product as part of a wider project and have found it to be a really useful part of my beauty regime. As someone who has dark, thick hair and has struggled with the cons of other hair removal methods (pain, stubble, quick re-growth, ingrown hairs), this has provided a fast, easy and effective method of longer term hair removal (e.g. legs take me about 7 minutes to do and has a nice warming feel as you use it). This is also pretty much pain free unless you’re a sloppy shaver like me - if the device zaps a hair, it feels like an elastic band flick which really isn’t too bad. I saw results on my legs within about 4 sessions and after 6, I only have small patches left. I’ve also noticed other areas of hair start to reduce in size and the hair becoming much thinner and lighter (armpits/bikini line). One added benefit for me has also been how soft this has made my skin and gotten rid of some of the redness and bumps I had from shaving that I was self conscious of. The device also feels very safe to use due to the senso-adapt technology that tailors the light pulses to your skin tone and stops flashes when it’s not against your skin (this was on of my previous concerns before starting the treatment). I am only halfway through the 12 week process but am loving this so far and really looking forward to being hair-free. I really recommend the investment into this as a longer term solution that you can do in the privacy of your own home!
