 Good epilator August 26, 2008
THis is a good epilator no doubt...it does hurt...i wont lie about that...i am not sure if if any better than my older braun epilator...i didnt quite realise that we cant regard this one and it has to be use plugged in...I read in one of the earlier reviews that the user had rechared it and then used it...so i am kinda confused about that...the trimmer..shaver...everything make it complete...its time consuming..but it saves a few steps...like i can use this directly on dry skin ...and get done with it ....where as with waxing...i do have to have a shower later..same for shaving...this is easier...i still have to this on my looser skin parts...and i know its not goin to be easy...but i think its like slowly acclimatizing myself to it...i dun think these epilators can every be pain free...
 Preliminary thoughts... overall great so far! August 21, 2008
I just got this delivered today from Amazon. For years I had been afraid to use an epilator because my mom told me how bad the old-style Epilady hurt. But like one of the other reviews on here, I have extremely pale skin, and extremely dark hair. Which also grows back extremely fast, and is pretty much all over me (thanks, genetics. Thank you SO MUCH). I did the waxing thing for a while but stopped because it got too expensive, and I had regrowth within a week. I wanted to give this a shot, and so far, I'm glad I did.
Like other reviewers have said, it does hurt. A lot. But it's no worse than waxing from what I can tell, and I had a highly experienced waxer at the salon I went to. The light helps a lot to ensure that you got everything. You will have red bumps from the epilation at least the first time- but I had that from waxing too. You simply can't yank hairs out of your body by the root without having the skin get angry and revolt against you in response. So if you have a hot date, do this at least 24 hours in advance so your skin has time to settle down.
I've done a bit of the bikini area just to test it out, and oddly enough it's not as bad (for me) as the legs are, at least the lower half of my legs. The hair on my upper legs is finer than the hair on my lower legs, so doing the upper legs doesn't really hurt at all.
The best part, for those of you fence-sitters out there who might be afraid to try this out, is the fact that this model includes a shaver head and a trimmer, along with the different attachments for the epilator itself. This is great for two reasons: 1) as other reviewers have said, it's less painful to epilate shorter hairs, so you can use the trimmer before epilating, and 2) if worse comes to worst and you can't handle the pain, at least you can still use the razor head to shave. So it's not a total loss if you just can't handle the pain.
Oh, and one other hint. The epilator has two speed settings. It might seem scary to do the fastest setting, but it hurts less.
All in all, a great product. I'm very glad I bit the bullet and bought this.
I was prepared for the worst... August 21, 2008
I have heard for years about how painful these products are--and since it was going to be either waxing (expensive!) or getting one of these, I thought I'd try it...
After talking to a friend, she told me how she bought one years ago and sent it back because it was too painful to use...When I told her I wanted to use it not only on my legs, but under my arms and bikini area, she gasped in horror. So, needless to say, I was worried.
It arrived today, and I used it right away, just out of the shower...
It was no big deal! I have never used one before, and thought it'd be awful with the root ends. It was not "fun" and I did feel it, but doing my legs was no big deal at all.
The bikini area and under my arms was pretty challenging, though--it did hurt, but not unbearable. (I did break out in a sweat after awhile...)
Now, I have been told that I have a high tolerance for pain, but something about this particular product and how it works just isn't that bad at all.
Once I get into a good routine, it can only get even easier as time passes...
Give it a try :)
Good Product, Good Delivery August 20, 2008
Braun SE7280 Silk-Epil Xpressive Epilator Body System, Corded
Good product, except for the noise it makes. Very Painful in the start, but slowly you adapt to it. Nice Performance.
Compared to Emjoi Optima ... Braun WINS! August 20, 2008
I won't get into the pros and cons of epilating vs. shaving vs waxing except to say that for me, epilating is a perfect solution. Having done it for years (since they were first introduced), pain is a non-issue and redness is minor and disappears with a few hours. Epilating is definitely something that you build a tolerance for over time and repetition. I bought this model to replace an Emjoi Optima. I had two complaints about the Emjoi. (1) the shape: So nice and round, pleasing to the eye, but difficult to hold with no good handgrips. The only places to get a good grip on it were the buttons that release the blade head. (2) The blades are placed in a slightly concave configuration, which is great for legs, and not so great for pits and bikini line.
About the Braun. I think it's perfect for what it is supposed to do. Easy to grip, and while epilators in general may tend to miss finer hairs on the first pass, this one seems to get more in fewer passes than the Emjoi. I could take or leave the light, I don't think it helps that much. The noise level is no different than the Emjoi, and is not as loud as husband's electric shaver. It comes with different switchable heads, including a "Beginner's Head", but I just use the one that came pre-installed.
This is my 3rd epilator and it is the best.
