Proven Fast and Painless Hair Removal
Epilation removes hair at root level resulting in smooth skin that lasts for weeks. The X'elle features Active Massage rollers that glide over the skin and gently stimulate it with micro pulsations before and after the hair is removed to reduce any pain or discomfort.

The perfect solution to all-over hair removal, it features a 40-tweezer system that takes away even the tiniest hair and a SmartLight that highlights every hair, so you can't miss those flat-lying strays. For days when you don't feel like epilating, it comes with an additional shaver head with OptiTrim attachment to trim hair and maintain irresistibly smooth skin.

A Smart Design for Easy Control
Braun's Silk-epil X'elle is specially designed to fit comfortably in the palm of your hand. You'll experience easy grip and control for maneuvering the device in sensitive areas. And its efficient Pro Clip feature follows your body curves for fast and thorough epilation wherever its needed -- whether it be the forearms, thighs, bikini area or underarms. Two speeds give you the option of fast or slow epilation. The exclusive X'pert-epil technology has 40 uniquely positioned tweezers, for quick and more efficient results. Regrowth is slow and it leaves hair finer and thinner every time around. With this epilator, you may even save money on disposable razors and waxing.

Epilator, shaving head, brush, and pouch.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Some Pain - But Some Gain
My daughter wanted one of these and then after she had hers a week and liked it, I decided to get one of my own. Using this for the first time hurts, there is no getting around it. When you have a leg full of hair, there is a lot to pull out. Just do what you can each day until you become accustomed to it. Then once you have all the hair removed on your legs, you will find that a touch up every few days is probably enough. Since hair growth is constant and at differing rates, this will never produce a perfectly smooth result. The hairs need to grow to a certain length for the tweezers to grab them. If you desire ulta-smooth legs for a special occasion, then you can epilate that day and then afterwards, shave. For me, I like this product, since I hate messing around with the shaving process every day. There is less stubble using the epilator. I researched epilators and decided the Braun was the best. I now also epilate my underarms, being very careful and holding them taut. Keep the epilator away from any loose clothing, threads, long hair or your socks. I always shower first using anti-bacterial soap, you can also use a natural loofah and gently exfoliate so you don't get ingrowns. Afterwards you can use aloe or lotion. Overall, this is much handier than shaving. While it's not perfect, I still use it and will replace it if need be.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Not for coarse hair!
Okay, so I saw all the wonderful reviews and thought I found a cheaper way to "wax." Boy was my head high up in the clouds. I guess one thing I should have looked for in the reviews was the thickness of the person's hair. My legs rival a brillo pad. I have my legs waxed but the hair still grows out pretty coarse and thick. Guess I should thank my parents' genes for that one. Anyway, right off the bat I realized I made a mistake purchasing the silk-epil. Not only did it hurt like "insert word", it barely took any hair with it. You have to hold it at a complete 90 degree angle and pray with every stroke for it to nab just a few hairs. The rest of your skin is left looking like you took up giving yourself lashes. Mind you, I wasn't pressing into the skin at all - following the instructions to the letter. I, in my brilliant state of mind, decided that "gee, I must be missing something here" and tried my other leg. Heaven help me! I am so sorry for all the wrong I have ever done. Please make the pain stop! My legs are now burning, red and ready to walk away from me on their own. I have a very high tolerance for pain but this broke all barriers. Moral of my experience: If you have coarser hair, you might want to think twice about purchasing this particular epilator. If you have baby fine hair that won't feel like fish hooks being ripped from your skin, then you might consider this for purchase.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I like it !!!
I bought this epilator after reading the reviews. Never had one before and I like it. It is paifull first 2-3 times and after that's fine.

My wife wanted this product and she really likes it. She knew of this epilator from her sister and decided to get one. So I ordered it, and she's loved using it ever since she got it in the mail Thanks Braun and thanks Amazon.com.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Wish I knew about this years ago
Ordered this about 6 weeks ago and I could not be happier. I read many reviews and decided to give it a try seeing as I could not afford laser at the present time, and I have been more than satisfied. This is the lowest price I have found for this model and if/when my epilator quits I will buy this one again. I was concered about the pain factor, but have found it to be no more painful than waxing, I will say the lower leg has been the least painful in my experience. Underarms is a breeze, not as bad as the reviews I have read. I think the thicker and deeper rooted the hair the more discomfort is experienced. All in all, worth the $$.
