With summer almost here, it is time to get ready for the heat and warm weather. That means wearing dresses, sandals, and baring your skin a little more than you did during winter. Although many people look forward to the warmer weather, removing unwanted hair is usually a tedious task that needs to get done because of the aforementioned “showing a little more skin”.

Today, we are reviewing Silk’N Flash and Go, which is said to help remove unwanted hair at home. Silk’N Flash and Go features light-based technology that is used to remove unwanted hair for both men and women and can be used on various parts of the body.

Overall, this is a great product that can remove unwanted hair. The Flash and Go applicator allows you to target even the most sensitive areas of the body such as the bikini line or smaller areas such as your face, underarms, as well as larger areas like your arms and legs.

It requires an outlet to use, which means that it doesn’t need to be recharged. The product emits pulses of light that works to remove unwanted hair. It typically takes about 4 treatments to begin seeing results with optimal treatments for at least six months.

Hair will become finer and lighter in color until it eventually stops growing completely. It does have major limitations. For example, it is not ideal for dark or tan skin and it does not work as effectively on white or blonde hair.

It also takes multiple rounds of treatments so on bikini areas or other areas with thicker or darker hair. Those will require several more treatments over time. If you can afford the purchase, it is a great solution to unwanted hair.

How Does Silk’N Flash N Go Work?

Silk'n Flash and Go uses HPL (High pulsated light) to target hair follicles at the root to disable future hair growth. All hair follicles are in both the growing and resting stage. Laser hair removal works because pulsated light is absorbed by the melanin in hair or skin. Melanin gives both hair and skin its color and is responsible for absorbing the light.

This is why it is not recommended for those with darker skin as it can cause skin discoloration. Flash N go disrupts hair in the growing phase so it will take several cycles to see full results. Most people see full results within six months of treatment.

How often to use the Silk’N Flash and Go?

The Silk’N Flash and Go reviews and manufacturer discloses that each person will respond differently to treatment depending on the treatment area, color, hair texture and rate of hair growth. The product works by emitting light that is absorbed by hair and permanently removes it. Most people will begin to see results in as little as 2-4 treatments and full results is as little as 6 month.

Initially, hair will regrow back but will be finer and lighter in color. It is not typically recommended for everyday use because you need to wait before treatment so that you can target the “growing” phase.

The Silk’N Flash can be used with the Silk’n application for your iPhone and provides users with support regarding treatment schedules and information about their specific removal device.
