BRAUN 7681 SHAVER

+ Where do I begin....not had an epilator before, but I won't go back to waxing/shaving again!
Easy to use (read the instructions, it's worth it), with different 'heads' for different body parts.
Cordless, so manouverable and portable.
One charge easily lasts long enough to do both legs, arm pits and a few extra bits ;)
Easy to clean/maintain. Comes in a neat little bag.
Re-growth of hairs slower and finer, than shaving and I think slower than waxing, too.
Also, doesn't strip your tan off like waxing.

- It's a noisy gismo...I use it when everybody's out!
Visual effect great, but not smooth like a shave.

+ once you get the hang of it it works really well. saves on waxing, with the same results.first

- all the different bit and pieces that come with it are a little daunting, but after about an hour of reading the instructions it all becomes clear!

+ I depilate myself with my previous one, other braun epilator but 6 years old, and afterwards with this one, and the new one removes more hair, even incredible is able to remove that hair is inside your skin if you pass 2 or 3 times over it. At first I thought the light it was a nonsense, but it is very useful indeed. I like not to have to use cables and be able to depilate in the area of my house with more natural light.
It's quicker than my previous one. I like the trimmer too for my groins.
It is good value for money because it will save you time for many years.

- None

+ Lasts quite long, portable, it does hurt but not as bad as i thought it would do, easy to use & does the job fast no fuss or mess.

- Thought it would pick up more hairs, but you can just go over it again the next day & makes a fair bit of noise.

+ I've never epilated before and was a bit nervous on first use. To be honest it hurt like hell on the first couple of strokes (like hot needles), but i was amazed at how quickly my skin got used to it. My ankles were agony, but by the time i got to my knees i was a sesasoned pro! Didnt get much of a rash as i'd expected, just a bit of redness that died down after an hour or so. There is a little light to guide your way which is handy as well. Also, its cordless - so no getting tangled up!. I have only used it the once about week ago, and my skin is stil nice and smooth with not a stubble in sight! Would definitely recommend.

- Only the pain for the first minute or so - but you soon get used to it.

+ I have been waxing for years, this product is brilliant. Hairs are removed even the really short ones! Nice smooth finish. Great for legs and underarms

- Can be a little painful, but if you can handle waxing you will be fine. It is pretty tricky to create a high bikini line. Its not the best for eye brows or upper lip either.

+ The pain is not as bad as you think it would be you get used to it very quickly. it is easy to use. The light helps alot. All the different heads make even the hard places easy. It is good that you can charge it and use it without plugging in and you can wash it after use.

- The only bad point is it is a bit painful but as I said you do get used to it.

- IT DOESN'T COME WITH A UK PLUG

+ Various tools, hair removal is superb and it is easy to use once you know which tool to use for what purpose. The light is great helps to identify areas that need more attention.

+ Smooth leg epilation without pain. Far more efficient than old epilator. Very pleased I decided to replace old model. Has different head for different purposes, if only I could fathom out which head to use.

- Complicated instruction booklet. Confused with different heads for different purposes.

+ I was slightly worried the first time I used this that it would really be painful. I was pleasantly suprised at how little it hurt on my legs. Then I tried it on my armpit. Wow that has the ouch factor. Overall I use this all the time on my legs, the more I use it the less my hair seems to grow. If you exfoliate regularly you don't get ingrowing hairs either.

+ was very worried about the pain but in reality its not that bad. used the 'beginners head' but it doesn't make much difference. lovely looking (!) and easy to clean.

- lots and lots of head attachments i don't really need - meaning it doesn't fit in the bag.

+ Easy to use. Works well. The light really helps see the hairs!

- Sometimes misses hairs so you ocassionally have to go over the same area twice to make sure!

+ Various different Heads for different methods of shaving, and different areas,, Excellant idea of the light, highlights the 'missed bits'

- It does hurt a bit, but gets easier the more you use it... just grit your teeth and off you go!!!!
