Q: Can the device be used cordless?
submitted by Holly - 1 year ago
A: Great question, Holly. The Braun Silk-epil 3-270 isn't able to be used cordless. Most of our cordless epilators are Wet & Dry device, meaning it is specifically designed to be able to be used in the shower. The Silk-epil 3 unfortunately does not have this functionality, so it has to be used with a cord.

Does a poor job. Takes a really long time. Misses most hairs. Does not leave legs feeling smooth. Not really sure why there are any positive reviews. Plucking each hair might take just as long. And would leave a better result.

I liked that this epilator is plug in and I don't have to deal with the issue of diminishing battery life. But, the epilating surface is sooooo small that it takes forever. Especially of you are on the taller side. It takes me almost 40 minutes to do a thorough job on my legs.

Nowhere on the box did this say it’s not chargeable and a Q&A here indicated this it was. Huge disappointment as this is messy to use without being in the shower. Very disappointing. Now I’m stuck with it. This doesn’t even begin to address the odd shape of the device.

It definitely will rip the hairs out so that part works. The electric shaving part is not the best. I really wouldn't recommend this for electric shaving.

I've used a couple of other epilators on my legs for several decades, and this one is the best I've used. This one took me less than half the time that my last one did, and it does a great job. I would highly recommend this product.

MollyKillers - 2 years ago, Verified purchaser
I had an epilator for years that I loved until a couple months ago when it finally gave out. I looked around for a while until I decided on trying this one. I’ve used it for about 6th months now and let me tell you I love it!!! The epilator is great and gets all the hair no problem. The light on it makes it 10 times easier to see that hair as with my old one I would pull out my phone and use its flashlight which was not that easy let me tell you lol. The razor also works great and helps take away hair from places I dare not use an epilator haha. If your looking for a new epilator or wanting to try one for the first time definitely try this one as it’s great!

Kendra - 2 years ago
I used it on my lower legs only. It was not convenient to have to sit next to the wall with it plugged in as the hairs simply go flying when removed. I should have used an extension cord and sat in the bathtub. It does have a light, which is helpful. It was medium painful. Not necessarily worse than waxing, just much more prolonged pain. Immediately after, I had lots of small raised red bumps. They went away within two days. I don't have particularly thick or coarse leg hair and it didn't get every single hair, had to go back through with tweezers. I wasn't able to tell initially how many of the hairs were removed vs just broken off. My legs looked alright (not great by any means) for about 2 weeks post-epilation. They did maintain a bit of a strawberry-specked appearance. Now that the hair has begun to regrow, I can tell that many were just broken off rather than fully removed. I also have so many hairs that are growing under the skin. Not like fully inflamed ingrown hairs, but hairs that are trapped under a little transparent bit of skin. I have not had this happen with shaving or waxing. In conclusion, I will not be continuing use of this product as an epilator. The regular electric shaving function worked fine so I might keep using it for that. Again though, the short cord is a hassle.

Kendra, above all else, your safety and satisfaction comes first. We're sorry that your experience using our Silk-epil 3-270 didn't go as smoothly as we had hoped it would. With our Safety Checks, we'd expect those hairs to be removed from the root safely. As the epilator removes hair from the follicle, there is bound to be some discomfort, so for the best results with this device, we first suggest you take a warm bath or shower. After doing so, epilate slowly, and don't press too hard on your skin. This will make the hairs easier to remove which makes them softer. To avoid ingrown hairs, we suggest you exfoliate your skin. This shouldn't be done directly before or after your epilation session. These tips should help improve your future uses, but because we care about your safety and results, we'd like to hear from you about this. Please call us at 800-272-8611. - The Braun Team

Ineffective/inefficient. Not too painful but takes a long time
1 reply from Braun team - 2 years ago
There's nothing more important to us than your satisfaction, safety, and having a quality experience. We're sorry that you didn't get the experience and results you were hoping for but know that while we have quality and safety checks since you're removing hair from the root, there is bound to be some discomfort. For the best results, we first suggest you take a warm bath or shower as it makes the hair easier to remove. If this is the first time you are using an epilator, or it’s been a while since you’ve epilated, shave your longer hairs first. After 1 or 2 weeks, the re-growth of short hairs will be much easier to epilate. While we're sorry it took longer than you were expecting, please keep in mind that you should go slowly for the best results. It should take around 15 minutes per leg. These tips may help, but your experience is important to us, and we'd love to learn more and assist you so that you can enjoy your future sessions. Please call us at 800-272-8611.

This did not give a good shave at all. The actual razor did a better job and went dull after a few shaves. I certainly will never buy another epilator.

We're sorry to hear that this was your experience, since our epilators go through many quality checks to ensure that you can enjoy the best possible results with them. We'll be sure to share your feedback with the rest of our team, and we'd like to share some tips with you. The area you want to treat must be hair free, so you may need to shave the area of skin you're using the device on beforehand. Make sure your skin is clean, dry, and free of any creams and lotions before you begin, and epilate slowly. We hope this is helpful. We'd be happy to provide any further assistance, and we'd also like to look into the shaver attachment. When you have a moment, please give us a call at (800) 272-8611.

Works great, easy to use right out of the box. I didn’t realize that it has to be plugged in to work I don’t understand why you can unplug it if it doesn’t hold a charge. Now I have to worry about losing the charger because it’s not built-in but there’s no point of unplugging it if it doesn’t work unplugged.

While we're glad to hear that you're enjoying the performance, we're sorry you feel this way about it being corded. This device isn't rechargeable, so it must be plugged in to work. We do put a lot of thought into the design of our products, though we do understand that preferences can vary. We certainly appreciate your feedback, and we'll be sharing it with our team. As well, you're always welcome to give us a call at (800) 272-8611, as we'd be happy to answer any questions you may have.

For the first few weeks, the epilator ran fairly smooth. But over time, it has stopped removing all of the hairs and I have to tweeze afterwards. Also, it gets louder and louder every time I use it. I live in an apartment and am worried it'll disturb my neighbors.

Men and women all over the world know that Braun products are reliable. They love and trust the brand, so we're sorry to hear that your Silk-epil 3-270 is making noise and not getting you the smooth results you know and love. We recommend trying that other speed setting to see if this helps. Also, try going a tad slower and going against the grain. As a note, it should take 15 minutes per leg. We'd love to learn more and help, so please give us a call at 800-272-8611.

I bought my first epilady approx 40yrs ago. Very painful and did not work as advertised. As I got older, tweezers were my go to for the few facial hairs on chin and upper lip. I then switched to finishing touch, to save time. Great, but hated the stubble feel. Decided to give this souls for a try. Very reasonably priced. So glad I did! Amazing job. No stubble, just smooth skin. It is amazing!

Smg - 3 years ago, Verified purchaser
I started getting hormonal acne a couple of months ago so I have to be super careful with what I use on my face. I decided to try an epilator since it pulls the hair from the root (I’d have to shave my chin everyday otherwise) and picked this one since it was affordable and had different attachments. It works great and I’m able to do my whole face in a few minutes. It does hurt but I notice it doesn’t hurt as much if I don’t let the hair grow out too long. The only place that I can’t tolerate it is my upper lip. It’s just too painful lol so I use the shaver attachment which gets me a really close shave that I’m happy with. It’s loud for sure but since I only use it for my facial hair, a bit of noise for a few minutes is worth the results. Cleaning and disinfecting doesn’t take too long. Overall, I’m very pleased with this product.
Causes ingrown hairs

Caroline - 3 years ago, Verified purchaser
I was really excited to try this product, but was severely disappointed. I get razor burn occasionally, and was hoping that this product would elimate that and make my legs look smoother by removing the whole hair. It removes most of the hair on my legs, but to get there, you will have to spend at least 15-20 minutes on each leg. I spent over 30 minutes working on my legs twice, two weeks apart, just to end up with dozens of ingrown hairs. It works better on armpits, you still have to tweeze the hairs that are left behind.
1 reply from Braun team - 3 years ago
We're sorry to hear that this was your experience, Caroline, since we can assure you that our epilators have gone through many quality checks to ensure that you can enjoy the best possible results with them. We'd like to mention that it's important to exfoliate regularly to keep skin smooth, glowing, and healthy, as well as to help prevent ingrown hairs. We recommend leaving a few days in between epilation and exfoliation if you have sensitive skin. For example, exfoliate the body and then epilate one to two days later. It's best to exfoliate first so ingrown hairs are released and can more easily be removed by the epilator. We hope you find this helpful. As well, to ensure that the epilator is removing the hairs, make sure the hair is free of cream and oil. Also, move the epilator in several directions. Depending on the area you’re epilating, hair grows in different directions and you should move the epilator accordingly. We'd be happy to learn more and provide you with any further assistance, so please give us a call at (800) 272-8611 when you have a moment.

It Is Too Loud, And After I Was Done Using It I Still Had To Tweeze
1 reply from Braun team - 3 years ago
We're sorry that this has been your experience, since we have many quality checks in place to ensure that you can enjoy great results with our epilators. We'll be sure to pass your comments along to the rest of our team. If you feel like it's too loud, we recommend trying to use a lower setting and making sure all of the attachments (such as the tweezer head or shaver attachment) are fixed in place properly. We'd also be happy to share a few tips that may help improve your epilator's performance: -If this is the first time you are using an epilator, or it has been a while since you've epilated, shave your legs first. Then after 1-2 weeks, you can epilate the re-growth of short hairs. -Pay attention to how much pressure you're applying. There's no need to apply a lot of pressure. -Epilate slowly. It should take approximately 15 minutes to do each leg. -Check to see if the epilator is clogged. The epilator head should be cleaned after every use. We hope this helps, and please give us a call at (800) 272-8611 if you'd like any further assistance.
