The main unit:
The unit is first equipped with the epilator head and then select one of the different articles that you then simply it presses on the bare head. Then it can already begin. This device does not differ from the devices of the series 7, the Epilierköpfe are compatible.
The device has two levels, which are set by rotary switches. With dry hands it works still reasonably, with wet hands but I have struggled and I'm constantly slipped. You have to press the small release at the edge and then turn it clockwise. The needs will precisely coordinated so that something happens. The others have producing better solved. But with a little practice, I've still got it then. The device is suitable despite rotary switch for right and left handers.
Well I also liked the light on the device. At first I thought, what the nonsense is, I do not epiliere me but in the dark. But it brings but actually what. You can work much more thoroughly, because can now hide no more hairs.
Unlike the epilator of the smaller series, this is about one centimeter wide, but also 40 tweezers are distributed there. However, these are longer and pack more tightly than that of the smaller series. Despite the tweezers are further apart, depilated the 9-Series thoroughly. The tweezers really Pack 4-day-old hairs and pluck them out reliably. With the 7-series, this was not possible. However, not perform miracles the 9-Series. Wen hair lie crisscross, you have to drive a little wavy lines here as well, so that one really gets all the hair. It is advisable to epilate at level 2 because, although around the forceps are placed, but not tightly packed, such. As the Philips. At Level 2, the head rotates faster and the tweezers come back often. Who has the rest away and the epilator is moved slowly, the softer level 1 can use. But then it takes even longer.
The head is movable and adapts to the contours of the body, so that it automatically has the right angle to the skin.
At first I thought the extra width would disturb more, but that's not the case. It is possible in spite of the wider construction, to epilation under the arms and in the bikini area.
The device is charged via charging cable. Here even a charger is included, so that the epilator is not always flying around somewhere in the area and its place has. But during this time it can not be used for safety reasons. If a so out of juice in the middle, is the misfortune. So is however prevented by increases with attached electrical cable in the bathtub.
The volume is remarkably quiet. While others aloud, hum (perhaps to the pain cries are drowned), of Brown has not necessary. The sound is a bit higher than the 7 series.
Of course, you realize that the hairs are plucked, a small Ziep and it was. The device is very gentle. Since there is no reason to whine. It is very long to epilate hair, admittedly, masochistic. They should only cut with the razor. Otherwise the hair wrap around the tweezers and then it hurts. If all this is too much, then have to shave halt. But lasts much longer epilation. Three to four weeks considers it already, depending on how thorough you were, how long you been depilated and how fast the hairs grow. May regrow hair if they start already very briefly pluck again. The Brown captured it anyway.
Something gentler it when wet depilated, because the skin is much softer. The epilator can be used in the shower or in the tub. There is also the possibility, on the legs and / or the epilator head (whatever) to provide shower gel, so that the epilation foam. It pushes lighter, the skin is still soft, it had twinge much less and you can wash away all removed hair with. At first I thought, what's that for an idiocy that burns surely hell, far from the soap to the freshly plucked and irritated areas, however. It is very pleasant and cooling. No trace of burning. In addition, you can clean the device and the head just below the shower.
In part, it is also dependent on the paper, which is attached, how much you can tell the pluck.
RF massage attachment:
The essay has front and rear small prickly rolls that go through the skin and stimulate it. Stimulation is in interaction with the epilator so strong that the nerve endings capitulate in overstimulation and pass no more pain.
This is very pleasant on the skin.
Skin contact attachment:
There are simply the spaces covered all tweezers are available. Unfortunately epilation is not as thorough as in the high-frequency massage attachment, because the hairs are more depressed by the attachment and thus no longer covered as well. Also you have to watch yourself, that you comply with the angle to the depilated body part.
Attachment for facial hair:
Here the epilator head is so far covered that only three tweezers are visible side by side. This can be removed very precise individual hairs. Almost like with the tweezers by hand, only better.
Not suitable for epilation of areas, such as legs and shoulders, because it would simply take too long. Partially suitable for the bikini line.
An essay that I also occasionally used, although I think not much else of essays covering the tweezers.
Shaver:
The shaving head consists of a foil and a lockable trimmer.
If the trimmer placed not fixed, you can shave with it, the trimmer adapts to the contours and immerses himself in the device if necessary. The result was so mediocre. Shaving the armpits, I cut myself with the trimmer, although this was not made fixed.
If you want to give the bikini area beautiful curves, one can also find the trimmer and trim precise forms when it have to want to.
The trimmer attachment together and established trimmer works very much like a hair- / beard trimmer. The long hair is combed in the right direction and then cut.
This is especially useful if you want to epilate in sensitive locations so that not wrap the hair around the epilator.
Attention! Allegedly, the shaver is not suitable for operation in shower or bath. But I have only read, as I had already tested it in the shower. The shaving works but still.
Instructions:
The instructions are very easy to understand and very detailed with image and text.
Cleaning:
The device and all attachments can be cleaned easily, because you can break down this very well and therefore good everywhere is ran. In addition, even a small hard brush lies, with which one can persuade individual hairs to go.
Face cleaning brush:
At first I thought, do I want such a thing? There is something going that way. Finally, I have a relatively problem-free skin, not super tight, a few larger pores and occasionally small impurities and the make-up I get so down in the evening also. But whatever! Finally, I have an electric toothbrush and find the better than manual mode.
The application and handling is easy. Face and brush moisten, give cleansing on the brush and go. The brush rotates on the skin, you can set two speed settings. Dirt / makeup is removed and massaging the face while beautifully. But not only for cleaning and removing make-up brush is suitable. Especially in the morning the massage effect is very pleasant to be fit. The complexion is rosy after rinsing and I feel refreshed properly.
Creaming is then mandatory, because with me after treatment, the skin a little stressed. The cream is but a very fast and I need much less than before.
My feeling my skin is much softer and brighter, the pores are finer and the skin is firmer and remains.
Unfortunately incurred costs. Firstly, for batteries, as the unit must be equipped with two AA batteries and for the brush, because they need to be replaced every three months (as with toothbrushes also). You have to reckon with the purchase.
There is currently only one type of brush. Scrub brushes or brush for sensitive skin are not available. Brush third-party, such. As Philips does not use it, because the devices have a different take.
Conclusion: a great brush that enhance the skin's appearance and the problem-free skin and still offer a morning freshness can. Attention addictive!
The instructions for the device is good. The images and text are very easy to understand.
Storage bag:
It is a thin bag that protects the device against dust only. All devices located in the same bag, no matter how extensive the features. It fits only into the epilator with accessories. For the facial brush there is no more space.
Conclusion:
It is worth the 9-Series instead of the 7-series to buy it, since these depilated in my opinion significantly more thorough, not because of the larger width, but because of the longer tweezers, truly capture the smallest hairs.
