Braun Silk-épil 9
Pros
- 2 reviews
Won’t pull the hairs out very well at all.
I go over and over my leg and it takes numerous goings over to even get one hair out. Not happy. It’s taking me forever to not even get a smooth result.

Purchased silk-epil 9 flex with massage pad. Very happy with results. No pain. Most hair removed with 1 pass, light on head useful, and swivel head contours well. I wanted the 9 model for the good reviews. I had to purchase in this pack, where I got many accessories I don’t want. Straight out of box it wouldn’t run when plugged in. I love cordless, but hoped I could also run on power if battery runs out. Comes in convenient pouch.

Love it.
I bought this to replace an older model. To be honest I ended up just using the shaver head on the old one as it hurt so much. But I am more than happy with this new model. I’ve even used the epilator on my underarms and on some very stubborn chin hair. It’s awesome. It certainly doesn’t hurt like my older model did. Zips over my legs almost pain free. Pretty sure after a couple more uses I’ll be able to say “pain free”
I’m really pleased I bought this. I’d highly recommend it.
Purchased in June 2020 at Shaver Shop.

Definitely worth it
I had never used an epilator before so I don't have anything to compare this to. I bought this from the Shaver Shop for 40% off so if it wasn't for the discount I probably would have gone the epil 7 because it is the exact same device but doesn't have as many attachments as the epil 9. I'm really impressed, it works really well. My hair is gone, and the pain isn't any where near as bad as you think it's going to be. I prefer to use it dry rather than wet but that's just my preference. I'm o pleased with this purchase I love the light on the dev...
Read moreice. The exfoliating attachment is great. I hate shaving my legs as I find it such a chore and waxing is too expensive and I find it pretty painful. I have had Brazilian and underarm IPL and I liken the pain to that. The best part is that the device lasted the whole time and when I went over again the never morning which was about 50mins all up. 100% recommend this to anyone starting or upgrading.

Efficient and has lasting power.
This is the first epilator that I have ever used so far. Before using it, I had only ever used basic tweezers on my eyebrow region so I was a little intimidated by the idea of the pain I was potentially inflicting on myself.
Once it was charged I tried it on my ankles as a test area. Suprisingly, it didn't hurt anywhere near as expected. The back of my knees were the most sensitive. After use, I discovered that I was able to epilate both legs with charge still left in the battery. I tried my arm pits next. The epilation was really consistant an...

I was hesitant in purchasing one of these and read many reviews about different brands models etc. I eventually purchased this one and its the best decision I have made for myself. Why did I not buy one of these years ago!!!!! Has everything you need compared to what I saw with other models, I am definately not dissapointed and would 100% recommend this for anyone.

Finally found a replacement for my old Emjoi from Sunbeam
After owning several Emjoi epilators as far back as early 90's, my last one finally died on me and I was devastated as they were no longer manufactured! After extensive reviews online, it was still difficult to choose so I just walked into the Shaver Shop and purchased what felt right. This was 6 months ago and I have never looked back! My Braun Silk-epil 9 is fantastic! Can have both legs done in about 10 minutes compared to 30 minutes! At first didn't like how it was cordless as I thought plug-in would be more powerful (like my emjoi) but...
Read more no, it is as powerful and so much easier not having to plug it in! It stays charged for a long time (whole duration of full legs, bikini and underarms) and doesn't take long to charge either. Has a flashing green light to indicate charging which stays green once charged. The only reason I haven't given it 5 stars is because I do find it rough sometimes under my armpits, even after a shower and applying baby powder beforehand. Its like my skin under there is sensitive, but this doesn't happen all the time. Never had this problem with Emjoi. Bikini line is fine with baby powder too (just like my Emjoi) Maybe Braun need to look at investing in gold tweezers which are more gentle on the skin?? Overall very happy with appliance as it's easy to use and saves me lots of time. Cordless is priceless!Purchased in March 2022 at Shaver Shop for $99.
Excellent epilator left my legs silky smooth and hairless for weeks UNBELEVABLE
I have used epilators before but not like this one they have always left my legs stubbly and been very painful but not with the silk epil 9 which was quite painless and took every single hair even the tiny pesky fine ones and quickly to, It has been 2 weeks and my legs are still silky smooth like day one, I recommend this to anyone that wants non stop silky smooth legs and all the accessories to keep them that way, Excellent product braun

Totally worth the price
After upgrading from an Epil 7, I was amazed at how much faster and less painful this was to use. It charges quickly and holds the charge for a decent time, especially good when you are doing your legs. Highly recommend this model

Great product
I Have had this for almost a year, & have had no problems with it. Does exactly what it says it will, and works better than my last emjoi epilator.

Amazing product
This is a great epilator. Its very quick, and when used in the shower I personally can barely feel a thing. It's got good battery life. Also all the attachments it comes with are amazing.

Great epil I ever had
I Have bought Braun silk epil 9 a few month ago and absolutely love it.
It is very convenient that it is cordless and I can use it in the shower. Take less time to epil cause of long head and skin is very silky after few weeks of using it. Picking even short and tiny hears
My skin is less sensitive to the epilator so i use it without the massager which make shaving head is even longer.
Would definitely recommend to buy it, very handy!

I wish I could give this 5 stars....
I purchased this product going into a small appliance retailer wanting the best they had on the market at the time. This model came in a kit that was $299 (owch!).
My very first hair remover I ever owned was a braun which laster years so I purchased it, thinking that somthing so little and so expensive would be the same.
It lasted 6 months before it stopped pick up any hair :( I had it replaced. I have had the second one (same model) for 6 months now...
Questions & Answers
I can't get the exfoliation head to stay on. Is there a trick to it?
I was just wondering if you can use this epilator in the other spot apart from legs and armpits. Could someone please let me know.
I have had my Braun for about 9 months and use it regularly. I am having trouble keeping a charge on the battery. Is this a common problem after only a few months or am I doing something wrong when charging?
I think it’s how they are. I can get through the whole armpits and legs thing no problem. But next time I go to use it, it needs charging again. I just try to plan ahead and put it on charge the day ...
Read morebefore or an hour or so before I want to use it. If you can’t get through the armpits and legs without it losing charge though I’d be looking at calling in your warranty.Thanks for that. I'll look into it.
