Epilator Series 2000, Corded Epilator for Legs and Body, Hair Removal Device for Women, Model BRE227/00

Writing a review because this machine deserves more credit than 4.2 stars. TLDR: loud but does it's job. think of it as a "tweezing machine." it does just that. it's gonna pinch a little if you don't like tweezing and have low pain tolerance. but me and my friend used it- no hassle. compact. you can do it literally sitting anywhere. note: hair doesn't catch inside and does land on skin or on the massage add on lip. but I'd rather vacuum and easy wipe with a paper towel than all the prep/clean up other hair removal methods take. Full: (I'm an asian women with thinner body hair. I've just noticed that as I'm aging into my 30s, I noticed more hair follicles and longer strand growing on my arms and legs. People would say "there's nothing there" but I myself just don't want to see it so I started looking into methods.) Shaving was such a chore and I really don't like how it feels prickly and spiky after a few days. I didn't consider laser bc of cost (diy/at home type of girl), I don't really have a lot to get things done professionally, and much like the gel nail polish, I'm just a little slower to warming up to new methods of beauty and it's long term effects. I've gotten into but didn't enjoy sugar waxing because of the prep, the clean up, the mess. so when I saw the stars on this, I was skeptical but used it last night. worked like a charm. I also love that I can easily "just shave my legs" without like mentally booking a day/ mentally readying myself for all the hassle of waxing or taking more time in the shower to shave and not slip. it's a no nonsense gadget. I love it. It feels very analog and brings me back to like practical machines in early 2000s where one machine did one job and you see how it works. I would recommend it to my friends.

I don’t know what everyone’s fussing about. It’s an epilator. It’s going to be loud. And I’ve yet to come across an epilator that gets every. Single. Hair. After reading tons of the reviews after my previous epilator bit the dust, I decided to give this one a try, and I think it does the trick just fine. I think the cord is plenty long enough if your outlet is close enough to where you want to sit, which for me it was. If not, that’s what extension cords are for. Was it loud? Yes. But again, I expected that. I thought it worked just fine, and pulled out about 98% of my leg hair when I epilated before a trip to Denver to visit my best friend where I didn’t want to have to worry about shaving. My legs looked great when I was done, there were almost no noticeable hairs left, and as a woman who is very pale with very sensitive English & Irish skin, I slathered a layer of lotion on when I was done, and had no crazy rash of red bumps. So while others didn’t have such great luck with this particular epilator, I think it’s a great value for the money, has good power behind it since it’s corded vs battery operated, and does just what it’s supposed to do.

Let’s be real: turning this Philips epilator on for the first time is terrifying. It sounds like a miniature torture machine, and the actual process hurts like absolute hell. But if you can survive the initial shock, the results are kind of miraculous. I am naturally blessed with thick hair that usually grows back at warp speed, but after using this, I can actually go a full two weeks without looking like a werewolf. Even better, the hair is definitely growing back much thinner and sparser. It’s also incredibly lightweight and compact, making it super easy to carry anywhere. I honestly prefer this over waxing any day. With wax, I can never summon the courage to actually rip the strip off myself. With this, I just turn it on, pass it over my skin while punching a pillow, and take frequent short breaks to question my life choices. The biggest pro is that you only buy it once and that’s it. It’s way better for your bank account than waxing, where you have to constantly repurchase supplies and make multiple passes over the same area. My advice? Just put on some loud music or a series, and run this thing fast. My only real gripes—and the reasons I’m knocking a star off—are the lack of a storage case and the color. For the price you pay and for something with multiple attachments, having them just rolling around loose in my drawer is annoying. I also really wish they offered it in other colors; I’m not a fan of the pink. If you have the pain tolerance of a medieval knight, buy it. Your legs will thank you, even if you have to scream into a pillow along the way.

Great product for the price. I expected more pain based on the comments, but it really isn't that bad 3/10. By the second use, you get used to it. It’s cleaner and less painful than waxing, and lasts longer than shaving with less regrowth in some areas. Just make sure to hydrate your legs afterward and exfoliate regularly to avoid ingrowns.

I wont lie to you, this sucker hurts, especially on areas of more sensitive skin. However, it works like a charm and I am OBSESSED with it. Listen, I'm a girl who suffers from PCOS and excessive body hair. I am also a professional cosmetologist and I have access to various high quality and professional hair removal methods. Hear me out: I hate shaving because it causes ingrown hairs and makes my facial hair grow back darker and thicker and much more obvious. I have used DOZENS of different shaving methods an still have this issue. Having someone else wax my face is expensive, especially for someone like me who genuinely needs it on a 10-14 day cycle. I can, and do wax myself at home, but hard wax or soft wax, it is very time consuming, messy, and expensive to buy the products needed as frequently as I need to use them. I am not over exaggerating; I grow a TON of hair ridiculously fast. Of course, tweezing each individual hair is even more time consuming and I have reached a point in my life in which trying to keep up with my own hair growth just to feel female is completely overwhelming. I decided to give this epilator a try and I am HOOKED. It is such an easy, simple, mess-free and speedy way to remove my facial and body hair without killing my bank account! It pulls the hairs right out like a wax, providing a longer-lasting hairlessness than shaving. It's like a ton of electric tweezers all moving together to grab multiple hairs at once. It even cleans the peach fuzz! I can't lie, it's not painless. I always hate waxing my upper lip because it hurts like the dickens and this was much worse in terms of pain, especially because you can feel it snagging each individual hair instead of one quick rip like wax. I am so desperate for the hair to be gone in a more manageable way though, and it is so 100% worth it for me to endure a few minutes of discomfort so that I can enjoy multiple days of smoothness. This might not be everyone's cup of tea, especially with so many more modern forms of hair removal today, but I seriously couldn't be happier with the results. No woman should have a beard like man, haha!

I've tried so many methods of hare removal and this is by far my favorite. If you can handle threading your brows you can definitely handle this. It's pretty quick and super effective! I do think it has a little bit of trouble getting those super fine hairs, but waxing always had trouble with that too.

Its the basic Epilator but gets the job done. Its definitely not as good as my Braun but it also costs a fraction of it. Has been super reliable so far even during travel.

It was my first time epilating and I’ll be honest. It does hurt at first. It is not pain free. But you can’t expect to pull hair from the root and not feel it so- putting that to the side, I’ve had such an easy time using this. It takes a while but it lasts sooo much longer than shaving. I normally start to grow hair back within less than 24 hours, but after using this- I stayed smooth for almost 2 weeks and noticed my hair wasn’t growing back as rough as it was while shaving. My only negative to this, and I’m not sure if it’s just user error or not, is that sometimes it doesn’t catch the hair and it just keeps pulling at it without successfully taking it out. Now thattt hurts. And sometimes it just breaks the hair instead of pulling it out. Overall for it being my first time doing this, I really enjoy it for the most part. And after the first use (really halfway through your first use), it feels more like a mild sting rather than being skinned lol. But beauty is pain what can I say. Push through I promise you’ll be fine and end up loving it. Process included not just the results. Would recommend for first time users but don’t forget to chemically exfoliate between sessions to prevent ingrowns

Llego antes de lo previsto. Es un excelente depilador, cumple con su función. Es un buen sustituto de la rasuradora porque dura más tiempo en salir el vello. Sí duele, dependiendo de la zona del cuerpo duele un poco más o menos, pero recomiendo depilarse cuando el vello es pequeño. Los poros quedan irritados un poco, se llegan a observar incluso zonas enrojecidas que duran 2 o 3 días, pero nada grave. El cabezal si tiene buena cobertura, entonces se depila un tanto rápido, dependiendo de la cantidad de vello. Buen precio para la función.

Excelente producto. Al principio duele pero después de acostumbras. el depilado es rápido

Excelente me gustó mucho

Yo ya tenía una diferente pero pedí esta. Tiene solo una velocidad por lo que es bastante doloroso que vaya tan rápido, la otra tenía dos velocidades que lo hacía menos doloroso pero esta no como hacerle. No recomiendo si eres sensible.

Es excelente, cumple su función y está a muy buen precio.
