Braun is a German brand with a wide range of electrical appliances for body and hair care, among the products of which epilators stand out - classic devices with a tweezer principle of hair removal (the brand also has a photoepilator). The essence of any epilation is to artificially extract the hair from the root and destroy its follicle - this is what guarantees smooth skin for 2-4 weeks. After the follicle is restored, the growth of new, less coarse hair begins. Due to damage to the follicle, the texture of fresh hairs also changes.

The choice of an epilator is usually based on the characteristics of the model and the reviews that consumers leave on the Web.

Before buying a device, you need to determine the budget and those useful features that are necessary for the home procedure. For some women, it is important that the epilator can be used in water, for others, it is necessary to have a backlight, for others, removable attachments for sensitive areas of the body (including a trimmer or a razor).

All Braun tweezers have 20 (Silk-épil 1 and Silk-épil 3 series) or 40 tweezers (all others). The more tweezers in the model, the less time the epilation process will take, but the pain from it will be stronger, because more hairs will be removed at one time. Experts recommend choosing 40-tweezer models, since the epilation process will be painful in any case, and you will definitely save time on it.

The backlight allows you not to "lose" the hair and completely remove it from the skin, it makes the epilation process of high quality and worth the money.Almost all models of Braun epilators have a backlight, only the "Silk-épil 1" and "Silk-épil 3" series do not have it.

The first epilator was created with the aim of getting rid of faces on the legs, then it began to be used for other parts of the body, and only today - for the face. The brand's product developers have gone further and created Silk-épil 9 SkinSpa and Silk-épil Beauty Editions, the latest epilators with a razor head, a trimmer and a set of various brushes for cleansing and massaging the skin. Models differ from each other by the presence or absence of additional parts, for example, model 9579 has 7 accessories, 9549 has only 4.

You need to choose an epilator based on the parameters of epilation, the type of working head and anesthesia.

• By type of hair removal models are available for dry and wet epilation. Wet&Dry technology allows you to use the device in the bath or shower - it is 100% waterproof and works without recharging for 100 minutes (Silk-épil 9, 7 and 5 series epilators).
• By type of working head There are floating and regular ones. Regular head for Silk-épil 1 and 3 epilators, floating head for all others. It is better to choose an epilator with a floating head - it follows the contours of the body and removes hairs more efficiently, captures them, and does not tear.
• According to the method of anesthesia They are divided into massage ones (with a vibrating or “impacting” head), with an air cooling system or with the help of additional accessories - a cooling mitt or napkins.
• By type of food - wired (from the network) or wireless. Models with the function of shaving in the “Wet&Dry” shower can be used both from the mains and separately from it (the operating time of the device without recharging is 1 hour 40 minutes).

A modern high-end epilator has 40 tweezers - this significantly speeds up the process of skin treatment (especially on the legs) and makes hair removal better. Choose models with lighting and the presence of those attachments that you will actually use (for example, a restrictive bikini shaving attachment or an anesthetic massage attachment).

You need to connect the epilator to the network or pre-charge it (if the model is wireless). Prepare the skin: for dry hair removal, steam and dry completely, for wet hair, just take the device with you into the shower and use shaving gel. It is necessary to drive the epilator head against hair growth and do not press it: the tweezers should lightly touch the skin.

• Make sure the epilator head is clean. One epilator should be used by one person, you can’t transfer the device to a friend or girlfriend (not even mom or sister) - this is unhygienic;
• Use a regular head or additional nozzles to work with the face or sensitive areas of the body;
• Slightly stretch the skin and start moving the epilator against hair growth, you can move it in different directions for high-quality hair removal;

Cordless models with 100% water resistance can be “bathed” in water: turn them on for a while under running water and rinse the tweezers under it.

After dry epilation with a brush, clean the head, twist the drum with tweezers on your own to completely remove hairs and skin cells.

If the epilator is broken, the best way to solve the problem is to have it repaired at a service center.You can try to clean the machine yourself and disassemble it: first remove the head (using the buttons on the side - they easily “give” it away), then unscrew the screws with a small screwdriver and remove the plastic parts, clean the device with a brush and assemble it again.

• Remove the epilator head;
• Use a small screwdriver and unscrew the visible screws;
• Remove plastic parts.

10 years with proper use. Experts advise changing the epilator head every 2-3 years for quality hair removal. Removable heads and other spare parts can be purchased at the manufacturer's service centers.

Those who have used Braun brand epilators are 100% satisfied with them. Consumers appreciate the long service life of epilators and the fact that the line includes models for every taste and budget. The most popular are 40-tweezer epilators with light and dry epilation, they fly like hot cakes.
