After a decade with the Silk Epil 7, I decided to try something different. I used it for the first time in the shower, with soap. I was very satisfied. I finished in less time compared to the old machine, perfect result (okay, to be honest, I did two or three passes) and in 20-25 minutes I had finished underarms, bikini, legs! I didn't even change the head (for more sensitive areas and areas that wrinkle) but that is up to each person's judgment and experience. The tweezers have enough power and pull well. I did not notice broken hairs. For a new user, who is just starting hair removal with a machine, it might be quite, if not very painful, but the majority of users feel this way the first few times. Personally, after a decade of using an epilator, I no longer feel much pain and as with repetition, hair growth has reduced a bit, I now take less time. As for the duration of the result, that purely depends on each person's skin. Overall, however, for this particular machine for its price (purchased at 56 euros) compared to the SE which is around 100 euros, I was very satisfied, and I found the result to be very good!
