[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this IPL hair removal system to test for my honest opinion & waited over a month to give a FULL review. It’s an expensive product to invest in, so I’ll be detailed. I’ll start with by week 4 I’m thoroughly impressed. Upon opening it, everything about it is professional & well made. I downloaded their app for iOS & it’s amazing. It’s the most thought out, yet simple, app I’ve ever used. You make a plan on the app & create a schedule that works for you. The convenience of not only being able to do this at home; but also receive reminders for the removal sch I created, is EVERYTHING to a busy woman dealing with life! I’m a light-skinned Latina that’s HAIRY. I shave daily - not exaggerating DAILY. I go through periods of waxing, then like to give my skin breaks because it’s sensitive, & go back to shaving for a while. Shaving leaves my skin red, irritated, full of bumps & ingrown hairs. I was considering laser hair removal, then received this IPL hair removal system. It’s truly phenomenal. The first week I was conservative with location & strength of use because I was worried about a reaction - which didn’t happen. I didn’t have to shave the next day, but I didn’t really see much point to it at first. Week 2 I used it full power, all over, & by week 3 I didn’t even realize it was time to shave again. My thick, corse hair was way less dense, & some areas, like my upper legs barely had any hair AT ALL. My underarms that need daily removal, only have a few pieces pushing through. This is pure MAGIC! My facial hair is one of my main issues because I tweeze & create scars & this is even eliminating stubborn facial hair. I’m in awe at how this actually works. If you’ve waxed or tweezed then your pain with this should be nonexistent. I find it has a slight zap or burn IF you leave any hair. Spots I didn’t fully remove hair, are the only times I ever felt any level of “pain” but it was more discomfort. I only used it one day out of the weekend & the way it’s slowed down regrowth is remarkable. The cord is extremely long & sturdy, making it easy to use & maneuver around your entire body. It comes with different heads & the app will let you know if you have the wrong attachment for the area of removal. There are 2 precision heads so you use one for your face & one for intimate hard to reach areas. It only works when you it’s correctly aligned with skin, so you don’t have to worry about it accidentally shooting light anywhere it shouldn’t. Compared to the money & time spent in a salon; you’re literally saving thousands. In a month I’m mostly hairless. My skin is the smoothest it’s ever been. This device is LIFE CHANGING! I was gifted this one, but will definitely buy from Braun when I need a new one. Absolutely recommend!
