In the quest for the best epilator, the Braun Silk Epil 9 might be the one that is close to perfect. It is the newest Braun’s epilator. After several not so amazing epilators, it seems as if Braun finally got it right. Braun looked at the qualities we want and delivered, but it will cost you more than an average epilator.
Best of all, the Braun Silk isn’t just an epilator – you are purchasing a full spa kit. You will soon wonder why this is the new standard for epilators and why it is worth the price.

Braun didn’t miss a trick when they make their Epil 9. It has all the features we want. It is a wet and dry epilator, meaning that you can use it in the shower or bath safely. The Silk Epil 9 stands out from the rest because of its wide head. Braun created the epilating head to be 40% wider than the competition, which allows you to cover more area and work faster. If you are removing unwanted hair from your legs, you’ll finish the job quickly.
When comparing the top 10 epilators, we see that the Braun Silk is more comfortable to use. It is lightweight and ergonomically shaped, which makes it easy to move around the natural shape and curve of your body. You can use it at odd angles to reach all places. The head pivots, so all the tweezers can pick up as many hairs as possible.
Their 40 tweezer head picks up hair as short as 0.5mm, which is four times shorter than the length required for professional waxing! If you’re struggling to find those super short hairs, Braun has a built-in smart light that you can shine onto your skin.
Are you worried about the pain? Braun added a pulsating massager that massages the skin as you move the epilator.
The goal is to reduce any pain you might feel. While it doesn’t remove all pain, those experienced in epilating will notice a difference.
The Epil 9 brings a new standard to the market. Braun included a variety of attachments and accessories with their epilator, making it an all-in-one system. You can use it for epilating and exfoliating.
Just like any products, there are downsides. You cannot use this while plugged in or charging. That might be a safety measure because it is a wet and dry epilator, but there is the chance you will run out of battery life before you finish epilating. The battery is the largest disappointment overall.
Make sure that you charge it fully because no one wants only to have one leg finished. It does take an hour to charge fully, giving you approximately 40 minutes of use.
