Braun 5270 Silk-épil X'elle Body System Epilator

Product Description:
An epilator isn't a shaver in the traditional sense. An epilator is a personal groomer and is intended for body hair removal that's almost close to cosmetically permanent. It's closer to an electrolysis machine for home use. An epilator pulls hair out at root level and is effective for approximately 4 weeks. It's as effective as waxing but can be used on parts of ther body where waxing might be impractical. Braun 5270 Silk Epil Xelle Body System is faster and more efficient than other epilators. It's both comfortable and practical to use.

Rating: - THIS IS THE ANSWER!!!
I've been a semi-regular waxer for years, but it just takes so much time! Plus, you have to wait for the hair to grow out before you can wax again.

As a mixed Asian-American, my hair/skin type is dark hair/fair skin. Sadly, I'm like the fuzziest Asian I can think of, inheriting dark hair that gets THICK and icky when I shave. I've tried just about everything to manage the hair and regrowth, but even when I was a teenager, I would have to shave just about everyday if I wanted to be smooth ... Read More
Rating: - Great epilator
My dream come true. Since it is an epilator and not a shaver it is obviously going to hurt. But it does not even hurt a fraction of waxing. It has other attachments like shaver and trimmer which is of great use. My skin is so smooth now and it stays like that for atleast 2 weeks. It is very easy to use and clean. No need of shaving or waxing now and I do not miss that anymore. It takes only an hour to epilate complete body and thats so fast. I definately recommend this epilator.
Rating: - leaves leg smoother than others I've tried
This catches newer, shorter hairs than my last epilator leaving my legs perfectly smooth.And while not exactly pain free, it is less painful than I'm used to.I also like all the options it has, different heads and different speeds.I'm really impressed.
Rating: - Great product
This works amazingly! I use it on my armpits all the time since I get really bad razor burn/in-growns from shaving. It is quite loud and sounds like an electric razor or an electric toothbrush, but it works well. I've always used the low setting instead of the high speed setting as it works fine the way it is. :) I would highly recommend spending some money for it!
Rating: - Be honest with yourself before buying anyepilator
I really like this product; I like that it has 2 speeds, to ease you into things, and that it has a shaver head attachment which you can use to get your hair to the optimum epilating height (perfect for the first shave of the spring! ;-) ).

BUT, don't expect it to be painless.Don't expect ANY epilator to be painless, and if it claims to be, it's lying.The thing pulls your hair out by its root, for goodness sake!It will hurt.So don't buy this if you're the kind who tears up while plucking ... Read More
