FaceSpa Pro 910

I've been waxing, tweezing, and using depilatory cream on my upper lip and chin hairs for many years. These methods are tiresome, tedious, often expensive, and not effective for long. I wish I'd tried this Braun facial epilator sooner. It's highly effective and has, I'm not exaggerating, really improved my quality of life. No more 3x a week sessions trying to keep up and feeling demoralized by the effort.It took me a little trial and error and some practice to master the technique of using this epilator. But once I did, I was able to remove all of the coarse and even the finer hairs on my upper lip and chin. At first, these perfect smooth results would last for a week and then I'd touch up where there was regrowth. As time goes by (it's been about 5 months now), the rate of regrowth has continuously slowed and I need fewer touch ups. I'd say regrowth has been reduced by about 95 percent. Really amazing to me.I have felt no pain with this tool in removing coarse hairs and only a little bit with the finer hairs but no worse than waxing. It's definitely worth the investment, especially when compared to the $50 a pop waxing sessions at salons in my area.

I used to have an older version of this from Braun that lasted a decade or more. It was battery operated and after a batter leaked on the inside it was time to get a new one. Braun knows how to make a hair removal tool, and I trust them so much that I bought the latest and greatest. I used it last night, and it's sleeker, lighter, easier to charge (just plug it in), and easier to use compared to the one I had. I love it!As for use and effectiveness. It does what it says. A few stray hairs are left but I pluck those. Yes it takes time, but so does other forms of hair removal. Yes it hurts a bit, rather stings, but you are literally plucking out hairs at high speed, multiple at a time. It's comparable to waxing, but without the possible burns from wax. You get used to it. But with good skin prep and aftercare you'll be fine. I wash my face, and sometimes steam under my chin (my problem area). Once my skin is dry, I use the device. When done I follow up with a toner that helps with razor burn and shaving. I follow this with a laser hair removal device for longer lasting effects.I highly recommend this little guy for facial hair removal!

i've struggled with hirsutism thanks to pcos ever since high school. i have hair growth on my cheeks, neck, and upper lip. left unmanaged, i could grow a beard that rivals my brother's lol.i've tried basically every single at-home hair removal technique under the sun, but have always dealt with a 5-o-clock shadow within hours. epilating with braun has been an absolute game changer for me.i bought a braun silk epil 9 about a year ago and found that it often times missed some hairs and left a bit of stubble i wasn't fond of. it worked well enough, but i always had to clean up the leftover bits with a razor. still, what the silk epil 9 did pick up was left very smooth and the regrowth came back much finer and thinner! after years of the hair always being very thick and coarse, it was such a huge difference! so i stuck with this routine for about a year.on a whim, i decided to purchase the facespa pro 910 after seeing that it can catch hair as short as 0.02mm compared to the silk epil 9's 0.05mm and have gotten much, much better results!for my routine, i always take a hot shower and exfoliate my face first. then i dry my face with a towel (i've found that it doesn't pick up as well when my skin is still wet) and use the silk epil 9 for the initial tweezing. then, i use the facespa pro 910 to clean up what the silk epil 9 may have missed considering it's much more precise. this process between the two epilators usually takes about 30-45 mins. it leaves my skin feeling so incredibly smooth, i don't have to use the razor anymore! i do this process ever 3-4 days and have not had a problem yet.to address some concerns, i see a lot of people complain about in-grown hairs. despite being prone to in-grown hairs due to curly hair, i've only had maybe 3 of them ever since i started epilating. i use an in-grown hair solution every single time after i epilate (tendskin is what i personally use! it burns when you put it on, but it really helps) and i believe it has prevented so many potential in-grown hairs that would have sprouted without it.also, regarding pain, when i first started epilating with the silk epil 9 it did kinda hurt at first but not really since i normally tweezed anyways and was used to it. as i continued, it didn't hurt at all anymore. it almost feels more like a massage now lol. when i introduced the facespa pro 910, i also *mostly* didn't feel any pain. however, this was the first time i epilated my upper lip. it felt excruciating when i used it there. my tip for that is to take as many breaks as you need! it took me about 30 minutes just for my upper lip the first time lol. but it got much much better as time progressed. it's still a little painful after about 3 sessions, but not nearly as bad as it was.

I'm kind of obsessed with this thing. I've been using wax strips for years, but they're harsh -- there's that moment when you have to steel yourself to rip it off, and then you have to see how well it worked, and it often missed some, and meanwhile you've ripped off a layer of skin. This gadget feels wayyy gentler, even gentler than tweezers. It just tugs up each little hair. You can see what you're doing and go after specific hairs, and not harm your skin. It works way better, it feels way better, and it's weirdly satisfying to use. Small tip: The epilator is along the side of the top part, not the actual tip itself. It took me a minute to figure that out, but once I did, it worked like a charm. The brush thingie feels nice, too, though it's definitely more of a little added perk. It's the ease of removing tiny hairs that's the game changer. No more wax ever, and I barely think I'll even need tweezers again. (Just be a bit careful with your eyebrows and shield the part you don't want to uproot.)
