I must say that I am pleasantly surprised. The epilator has nothing to do with my poor memory.
I'm not saying that it's painless, which in no way - I would just like to take a break from the knee upwards often times, but then you will never finish.
With the Silk-épil, it is in most parts of the body really hardly painful and therefore I like doing it again and again.
As for the dehairing I prepare and follow no great desire and I've never tried it in the shower / bath but do it now times when it comes to my mind.
Compared to then, the skin irritations fall despite "lack of care" significantly lower. I might not go the same with short stuff on the street, but after 2-3 hours most red dots are gone again.
In my experience, it makes sense to move with the epilator slowly as possible, close to the snail's pace on the skin. Alternatively you can also go several times at a faster pace over the same spot. The light reveals a reliable, which includes the tiniest Häärchen is.
If I proceed too quickly rips the epilator hair just starting, there's the next day stubble.
Of the essays I have so far not really used much. The razor is okay, but not outstanding. The result with a wet razor is clearly better, but since I got it used for the base-shave prior to epilation, it is okay.
Whether you really need the narrower essays for the "sensitive areas" have to decide for yourself. Personally, I'm happy when I'm done and I'd rather have a more severe pain for a short time as a bit of pain and long.
The battery lasts approximately the specified time (40 minutes), which I fully exploited only the first time.
As the hair then grow back relatively irregular it is the subsequent times faster and much less painful.
I now epiliere about every 3-4 weeks, where there are still some almost hairless areas even after this period. Some hairs appear since the first epilation no longer out to be trusted ...
So if not depilated only due to poor previous experiences, it should perhaps try again, the new devices (or at least the Silk-épil 7) no longer seem to be as painful as earlier models.
