Great for dark hair
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great product! Works best on darker hair, so I use on my armpits more than my legs which have blonde hair. Not sure yet how much it will reduce hair long-term but so far so good with no burning.

Definetly worth is.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Waited to get some real growth on my legs before using this as can be seen in before pic and I really wish i hadnt lol.It actually hurt a little bit at first and we could smell burning but im pretty sure thats only cause of how long my overgrown hairy legs were.It works really well and I really challenged it with my werewolf legs.I left a couple of days between using it as I was a bit red but the burning smell and pain werent as bad 2nd time round.It is really quiet but the flashing light is really bright so be careful using if you have sensetive eyes.Have used this in total 4 times now and the regrowth now is minimal so even though Its seriously expensive to buy it is definetly going to be great value for money in the long run.Next mission is my face,when im brave enough 🙂

Quick, gentle & works
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ive only been using this for 2 months so far but im already seeing a difference im the locations its been used. My chosen locations have been (my bikini line, hormone related mustache) Due to the fact that I have a few tattoos making it unsafe to use on one of my legs. But im loving the safety feature how it detects your skin tone to use the correct level of flash. I personally think its very gentle on the skin all i felt was a slight warmth. The smart flex attachments make using it in various locations alot easier. The face & intimate area attachments are brilliant, make it safer and easier to use in those tricky to get to places. Its really easy and simple to learn how to use & to change the heads over. Its a nice shape that fits nicely in your hand and its relatively quite for a device of such power and heat production. Some noise would be expected from cooling the device. Overall I have no complaints

Salon Quality
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This device is a small and might piece of equipment. Following the “plan” that is advised within the pack for maximum results, I have noticed the hair on my legs and underarms and bikini area coming back slower and less dark. I don’t have to use this device as often. And the improved heads gives me a more presice penetration to the hair around the difficult areas like knees and ankles. The pouch is a lovely touch for easy transportation and storage and genuinely adds to the premium feel of the whole package. I’ve never been to a salon for hair removal and with this product I don’t think I’ll ever need to.

Great product.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Im very satisfied with the device.I only been using for one month but I can see the result.The hair grows very slow and became thinner. Very easy to use and clearly understandable instructions.

Easy , fast and mind blowing results!!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow!!! This device is so convenient to use. It is my first time using it and already falling in love with it. My skin is very pale and sensitive. I didn’t have any unusual skin reaction after treatment. To be quite honest I have been scared to use it but proven me wrong. It gives you slightly tingling sensation but that’s it. I used it overall 3 times, once every 7-10 days and my legs are smooth hair visibly reduced. Only thing I experienced was light skin irritation after use and redness on the treated parts which disappeared after 48 hours. I have to say you must shave well before treatment!!! to avoid hair burning ( happened to me on the one part of the skin). It comes with two additional attachments for face and more hard to reach areas, heads change very easy with one click. So easy and convenient to use, treatment of the legs finished in 8 minutes, mind blowing. I am very impressed with the results. A plus is small fan integrated into device that is blowing out air during treatment. Highly recommend it to everyone who doesn’t like to use wax or razor.

Great Quality At Home IPL Device
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using the Braun IPL Silk-expert Pro 5 for a weeks now and honestly, it's one of the best beauty devices I have tried. Firstly, let's talk about how easy it is to set up and use. I had it up and running in minutes as the instructions were clear and easy to understand. The smart SensoAdapt technology automatically reads your skin tone and adjusts the intensity accordingly. It makes it feel safe and completely fool proof. What really impressed me was how fast the treatments were with both legs taking just a few minutes each. The glide mode makes it effortless. It's surprising painless too and I experienced just a mild, warm sensation. It did not feel uncomfortable at all. After a few sessions, I noticed a visible reduction in hair growth on my legs. The growth is much finer and and slower than before. It's honestly saved so much time compared to shaving. My skin feels smoother with less ingrown hairs. This particular model is great as it comes with different precision attachments. These allow you to treat smaller areas like the face or arms. I've only tested on my legs so far but I will try my underarms next now I feel comfortable using the device. The device itself feels premium and sturdy. It definitely feels like it delivers the salon level quality from the comfort of my home. If you are considering investing in an at home IPL device, I would absolutely recommend this one. It is easy to use, effective and saves so much time. It is genuinely worth every penny.

Pain free quick and easy to use
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s easy to use and virtually pain-free. The three accessories make it simple to target multiple areas. The accompanying app helps with a targeted programme showing plan duration and transition times to maintenance. So far, I haven’t noticed a reduction in stubborn facial hair. It’s super quick to use, taking around a minute for the chin and no more than five minutes per leg. There’s a bit of fan noise but it’s quieter than a hairdryer. The confident size and intuitive design make it feel like an extension of your hand.

Starting to see results after a month of use
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product from Influenster to test in exchange for me review. I have been using this IPL hair removal device for 5 weeks now so have completed 5 sessions on my lower legs and underarms. I am starting to see results now on my legs with less hair growth so I am excited to keep using it to see the full results by summer! This product came with the IPL device along with 3 different heads (one for body use that has flexible sides so good for gliding, and two smaller sizes for underarms, face, bikini line) and a carry case which is very useful to store everything together. It's really simple to use, I did watch a few videos on how to use it before starting use, but once you know what to do it's very quick and easy. You can press the button once for a stamping motion on smaller areas or you can hold the button down whilst moving it slowly over the skin for a gliding motion on larger areas. It can sting slightly on more sensitive areas of skin but there are 3 different strength modes, so I have been using the highest on my legs and the middle strength on my underarms. You have to shave before use, but a razor was also included in this kit. The power lead is long too which I also appreciate and makes it easier to use. I also downloaded the Braun IPL app alongside and you can use this to set up a routine so I get weekly reminders to use it and can log my progress in there too which is super helpful. Excited to keep using this and see the full results! Would recommend.

Love my IPL!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always dreamed of IPL ! This Braun IPL Has a beautiful and elegant design. Its easy to use and painless ! I can only feel a gentle warmth. Skin sensors are helpful , but sometimes they dont "read" my skin and I have to try again. I am after 4 sessions and can already see the results! Hair grows back weaker and thinner. I epect it to be Perfect once I finish all sessions !

Hi Koko.
Our supplier has confirmed:-
Yes, you can use the Braun Silk Expert Pro 5 IPL on epilated hair that is starting to grow back. However, for optimal results, it is recommended to use the device on freshly shaved skin rather than epilated hair. This ensures that the IPL light targets the hair follicles effectively, as the hair shaft absorbs the light and directs it to the root.
Thanks for using Q & A.

I read the other answer and tried a trimmer myself, after 9 weeks I still have 0 signs of hair growth reduction. I think when they say this is possible , they mean probably not.
