Epilation journey

[JustineM]

So part of a surprise gift from my wife was a Braun Silk Epil-9 system. Shaver, epilator, massager and exfoliator all in one. Just tried the epilator part on my legs, I was able to get the lower half of both legs done then had to stop. Hurts like blazes for about 5 minutes after, now my shins are kinda numb. Going to try the upper half of the legs tomorrow night. 
 

Anyone else use this? What’s been your experience? I’m always open to tips or advice as well

I have been using one for a couple of years now, I found that I got used to it. Still sensitive in some areas like the inside of my arm but pain does not last long. Still can't do my stomach or chest unfortunately as it is quite intense. But I do love the look and fee of my arms and legs afterwards and last about 3 weeks before I start to notice the hair again. best of luck.

@JustineM I heard those things hurt like all get out. I was considering one of those until I read the reviews on Amazon, then I was like nope I will figure something else out without putting myself through unnecessary pain. 

All the best,

You heard correctly. I’m told you get used to more over time. I like the idea though because if it works for me right, I’ll only have to worry about doing it every couple of weeks.
