Surprised
Got it tried it . I'm a strawberry blonde and wasnt thinking about my hairs not being dark enough . I used it for 3 weeks and got a good bit zapped . My issue is blonde peach fuzz on my cheeks. I have the stiff grandma chinny hairs and mustache that are darker. I returned it because I couldn't see much difference . It's been 2 weeks and the fuzz hasn't returned . I still get a few stiff stubs but nothing like before! I am considering ordering another one ! The cost is steep for me but being furry with Bear chin Is so embarrassing .

Refund please
I used it four times before it stopped working. Now after one or two flashes it will turn red and white and I haven’t been able to find a solution or answer as to why it’s doing this. Huge waste of money! I bought in February and it’s now july. I’ve had professional laser and got this to do monthly maintenance.

BraunIPLDisappointed
This Braun was the most expensive IPL our family has purchased over the years. With several users, we have some experience with these. We have had about 5 different brans, usually costing $100-140. Roughly last several years depending on usage. Purchasing Braun was an upgrade to deliver many years of service. The unit was quite large & heavy with long power cord. It worked as well as other simpler models, but, after 3 months of light use: just stopped. Thank you Target for refunding. Promplty got a simpler, lighter different make unit for 1/4th cost.

Was skeptical but worth it
As I’ve gotten older I started having the hair between my knee and ankle grow in thicker and darker along with the appearance of strawberry legs. I bought this hoping it could help with that. I am about 3-4 weeks into the process and I am not totally hairless yet but I can see a massive improvement in the amount of hair growing and the thickness. I have also been using on my bikini area with similar results. It’s super easy to use and totally painless. You don’t feel anything at all except a little heat if you leave it in an area too long. I am so happy with this purchase and excited to see the full results in the upcoming weeks.

Long lasting results
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've always hated the whole process of shaving. I could never get used to shaving bumps, cuts, rashes, and Irritating Ingrown hair. I decided to try the at-home laser treatment. I was a bit Spectacle at first but finally gave in. The process is pretty simple and the results are long-lasting it was no pain easy to use and the results are amazing.

Love it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is easy to use with clear instructions. I have red hair so sometimes these products don't work on my color hair; however, this got the job done! I love this product. Easy to charge, and holds charge for a long time.

Perfect & Affordable Alternative to Shaving
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this Silk Expert Pro IPL from Braun US. I don’t like shaving at all, so I’ve spent a lot of money on wax removal, laser hair removal and a variety of razors, on the market. I’ve read so many reviews for this IPL device from Braun, so I was very excited for the opportunity to test it out. They have created several options, based on your skin tone, to choose from. for I’ve been using mine, PL3221, little over a month now and I absolutely love this. I love that it isn’t as painful as laser or wax removal. I also don’t have to worry about ingrown hairs or rashes afterwards. I haven’t noticed a huge difference, because it takes a couple of months for optimal results. I would definitely recommend this IPL device to all of my family and friends.

We're so glad that our IPL is the perfect alternative for you, Elizabeth! Thanks for using this to reduce your hair growth, and for sharing your experience. While our IPL does go through safety checks, we do know that more light energy is absorbed when it's used on darker skin. If you do experience pain in those areas, use the sensitive mode that you mentioned. There's nothing more important than your experience, and we'd like to hear from you about this. Please call us at 800-272-8611.

So far promising results!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so excited for this hair remover and it did not disappoint!!!! I have struggled with excess hair for years ! I pluck my face daily and have to wax my upper lip about every week or so. I have light skin but dark sometimes thick hair. Given my personal struggle with hair removal I was hesitant to get excited by this product until I had seen results. So far I have used it about 4 weeks(once a week) and have noticed more of a difference on my chin than my upper lip or sides of my face. But the hairs have so far seemed to come in thinner and are easier to remove. I have also used it on the tops on my feet and have noticed a difference in those areas. The tool is easy to hold and easy to switch out the attachment’s depending on which areas are being done (precision, standard, or wide). It is quick to use - taking less time than waxing or going somewhere for laser removal or to be waxed. There is a sensor on both sides that tell you when it is ready to use and when it it properly in contact with your skin. It also has a “sensitive” feature for more sensitive areas or when using it for the first time. It isn’t painful at all, which was a nice surprise because I expected it to be uncomfortable. The only downfall is that it is tough to tell which area you used it on as you go along because you can’t really tell where it lines up to exactly. Overall not a big deal, just means I go over some areas twice if it overlaps.

So far, so good!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using the Brown Silk Expert for about a month now and I am starting to see results! This product is ready to use right out of the box and comes with detailed instructions. The instructions state, to use it once a week for 12 weeks to get full results, but I am definitely already seeing improvement after a couple of uses. My hair is coming in lighter and growing back slower, I can't wait to see the end result. Treatment is not painful, but it does get really warm and stings a little bit. The storage case fits all parts nicely and secure and the extra long power cord is definitely a plus!

The best self care gift you can give
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had professional laser treatments done in an office setting before. In comparison, the Braun IPL laser hair removal system is the exact product to bring this high end treatment home for a much lower cost and bigger value. There are 3 different attachments included so that you can customize for the area you are treating. The guide included in the package suggests treating a small area as a test, and then treating once a week for 4-6 weeks. It is imperative you use the skin tone and body hair chart on the packaging to determine if you are a good candidate for this safe, effective treatment. In my experience, it hurt way less than I experienced in the professional setting, and I got to do it myself in the comfort of my own home. Stopping when I needed to, and resuming. I wouldn’t suggest any sun exposure for a couple days after treatment, so winter is the best time to handle the hair! The German design ensures you get a well made, quality instrument for such an important task. It is so effective, I won’t need it much longer!

We're glad to hear that you're a fan of our Braun IPL, Michelle. However, we're sorry that you may have experienced some discomfort while using it. We can assure you that our IPL is thoroughly evaluated to be safe when used as directed. Some people will experience slight discomfort (e.g. heat or redness of the skin) when using the device, and this is normal. You may feel heat and tingling when activating the flash, followed by redness in the skin, and this type of reaction usually disappears within 24 hours. We hope this is helpful. We'd also like to learn more and gather some additional details for our Safety Team, so please give us a call at (800) 272-8611 when you can.

It Really Works! I love it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using the Braun Silk-expert Pro 3 hair removal system 3 1/2 weeks now and have seen great results. In the past, I've shaved my legs and used waxing strips to remove hair from by armpits and bikini line. This hair removal system takes a fraction of the time without the sticky mess or the pain of waxing strips. I have used this system once a week for 3 weeks and it takes me less than 5 minutes to use the system on my armpits, bikini line and legs. So far, I've noticed a significant reduction in the time it takes for stubble to appear (48 hours vs. 12) and in the amount of hair regrowth. The system produces a warm sensation on my skin but it is not at all painful. So far, I am very pleased with the results of the Braun Silk-expert Pro 3 IPL hair removal system and am excited to see the results after using it for the recommended full 12 weeks. After that, the instructions say that the treatment will only be needed once per month. I'm thrilled to have found an alternative to shaving and waxing that actually works and will recommend this hair removal system to my friends and family.

Say Goodbye to Your Shaver!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Couldn't wait to start using this! My advice in learning how to use this correctly is watch the video on their website. I used it twice before I realized I wasn't doing it right. Nonetheless, it is working! I decided to treat only the right side of my legs & armpits so I could compare IPL to the shaved side. VERY IMPRESSED! I have no new hair growth and no more razor stubble! Comes with everything you need, even a disposable shaver to get you started. Fast and painless, some warmth is emitted from the device but nothing uncomfortable. I had no reactions after use.

Working great so far
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using the Braun US Silk Expert pro for a few weeks now and I am already seeing some results. The unit is easy to use and the directions are very thorough. The device will not work if you don't have the correct contact with your skin. I was excited to try this in the winter months so that my legs will be ready once summer comes. The set comes with everything you need and then some. I can't wait to see the long term results of using this.

Easy peasy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve only been using this product for a few weeks so I’m not 100% sure it’s working yet but the results are promising! This is a great value if all goes as intended! The instructions are clear and easy to understand and they send you everything you need to get started!

Easy to use
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This at home hair removal tool has been really easy to use and I have not had any negative side effects. I am carefully and slowly using it so do not yet have super noticeable results, but I think it is a good option!

Worth it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This thing is worth every penny. Over the last four weeks I have watched as next stubble slowly disappeared. My hair growth has significantly slowed down to the point that I can go an entire week without stubble. I can not wait to see those month long results that I am certain I will get from this. I was a little nervous my first time using it because it seemed so high tech and fancy but it’s super simple and the instructions leave no room for error. It really only takes about 10 minutes to treat everywhere. I couldn’t recommend this more it’s been such a game changer in my hair removing game. If I had to give it any criticism it would be that it came with a razor but not eye protection. I feel like how bright the light is can’t possibly be good for your eyes. Obviously don’t look right at it but def still very bright.

The Braun Silk expert Pro 3 IPL Hair Removal Device is a permanent hair removal device that claims to reduce hair for up to 3 months of smooth skin. An Permanently removes hair within just 4 weeks of treatments. I am so intrigued and impressed with the technology of this device.

The 2 modes (Sensitive to Normal Skin) ensures Your skin’s comfort, and the treatments aren’t painful. If You are treating multiple huge area’s of the body, the process can take time but that’s not an issue for Me. I am pleased to announce that I have seen results from the first 2 treatments that I’ve done so far, as My hair is getting finer. An I am looking forward to when the hair will be completed removed. The 2 modes (Sensitive to Normal Skin) ensures Your skin’s comfort, and the treatments aren’t painful. I appreciate that the Braun Silk·expert Pro 3 IPL is a luxury device, that’s packaged beautifully in a luxurious storage bag, with a Venus Razor, the Wide Cap and Precision Cap. Highly recommend!

Not seeing results like I wanted to.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really really wanted to love this. I was so excited and hopeful that I would be able to rid some of my upper lip hair as it grows in dark and thick. Unfortunately, I am just not seeing results from using it. I make sure my face is clean, no sun/self tanner, and free of hair before I use it(following instructions just as they are) and I still do not see results. I am impressed with the quality of the product and the pain is very minimal if any which is great but also may be the strength is just too weak to provide results. I have been using it for about 4 weeks so maybe I just need to give it time and definitely am going to continue using it as directed and hopefully start seeing results.
