Product Reviews of Braun SE3170 Silk-épil 3 SoftPerfection Epilator
Product Review: False Advertising
Summary: 1 Stars
Do not order from The Natural Health Shoppe. They have deceptive and false advertising and beyond poor customer service. My wife ordered a new Braun Silk SoftPerfection epilator. She received a box that was already open with pieces missing. When she contacted the company, she was told that the missing pieces weren't specifically listed on the product page, therefore, she wouldn't receive them. They neglected to comment on the fact that they sent a product that wasn't new even though she ordered a new product. Had the product been new and unopened as ordered, the missing pieces would have been present. According to their return policy, the product cannot be returned since it has been opened, so they succeeded in pawning off a used and incomplete item. I hope Amazon will not associate with this vendor in the future.Product Review: Fast and works great
Summary: 5 Stars
The original Epilady sold me on epilators over shaving, and I've been epilating ever since. This unit is by far the best epilator I've used. It's fast, but somehow is relatively painless. Much faster and more thorough than my old Emjoi epilator. Because it's not cordless, it's very light, which I like. The only downside is that it's a little noisy.Product Review: Finally, No More Shaving for Me!
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm a female with hirituism (due to PCOS) and I have had a problem with male-like beard growth since I was 13 years old. Ever since that age I have been shaving the hair on my chin and cheeks, and the hair just got fuller and more coarse over the years. On top of that, I have developed razor bumps and hyperpigmentation from shaving so often (every other day). My chin area just looks disgusting and has often prevented me from feeling feminine/attractive or getting close to others for fear of them seeing it.
I recieved my Braun 3170 today along with another product that I had ordered, called Bump Stopper 2 (to treat my razor bumps). I have never waxed or tweezed, so I was a little scared of what the pain of epilating might be like. I started with Speed 1 on my cheeks. It did hurt, but I could deal with it. It took me about 20 minutes to do the right side of my face.
Once I started getting used to the pain, I moved on to my chin area, which has a LOT of hair, very similar to a man's beard but a tad more sparse. It hurt like hell and I actually turned the epilator off for a minute so that I could compose myself. But I knew it was going to hurt because of the large amount of hair that was there, so I sucked it up and started again, staying motivated by reminding myself of how much better my face will look with all of this hair gone.
After another 20 minutes or so of doing my chin, I got tired of it taking so long, so I turned it up to Speed 2. The faster speed actually hurt less and the process started going much faster. And since I wasnt in as much pain anymore, I switched to the Efficiency Pro Clip Adapter and that got the hairs out even faster. I was delighted to watch the hairs fall into the sink! Thats what kept me going despite the pain that I was still feeling.
The pain also lessened as more hair was removed, since less hairs were being ripped out at a time...so the less hair you have, the less it hurts.
It took me another 30 minutes or so to finish my face completely. I washed my face off with antibacterial soap, dried it off, and applied the Bump Stopper 2. My face is now smooth(despite a few swollen places) and hair free. The swelling is minimal and is going away quickly. I am so glad I got the Braun 3170 epilator. My only regret is that I didnt start epilating sooner.
If you want the hair gone badly enough, you can and WILL endure the pain to get the great results!

Product Review: First epilator ever!
Summary: 4 Stars
I chose this product for my first epilator because of its decent price and customer reviews. I found it pleasantly easy to use, which is saying a lot because I'm usually not very good with techie things.
I thought it would take all the hair off in one go, but you kind of have to keep going over and over the same strip of skin until it's bare. I don't know if any epilator can do this.
Otherwise, it's a good beginner's product. It's quick, easy, and relatively painless (especially compared to Nair).
My only complaint is that there is no really good way to clean it out. I just blow on it, then brush it off with the mini brush (included), but I feel like that doesn't clean it all the way.
