Silk'n Hair Removal Reviews
Though this plug n play laser hair removal device is safe to use but I personally don’t want to recommend the people with dark skin and dark hair.
They should go to a clinic and get professional laser hair treatment done so it is very very important that you figure out your skin type. You can find out your skin type on this fitzpatrick’s skin scale image.
Find Your Skin Type
A girl from USA with Olive (lighter) skin color and dark hair will fall into type 4 in Fitzpatrick skin scale. This way you can avoid burns incase you have a dark skin with dark hair.
However it works great for people who have dark hair and relatively lighter skin color so it will work for them because this machine works on the basis of finding the melanin.
Understanding the Concept of Melanin
So the laser should be able to differentiate the melanin level in the hair versus in the skin. It will destroy the hair as it will have higher side of this hair pigment.
how to prepare before laser hair removal
Don’t wax or tweeze the area :
because both of these methods take hair out of the root and when the machine find them mission when starts working.
So just clean the area, shave it, dry it and just use this Silk’n hair removal machine.
after laser hair removal precautions

How Often Laser Hair Removal
This webpage has detailed instructions how to use it how often and all that. Still I will just want to share with you my personal experience. When I started using it about a year ago I used twice a week or maybe sometimes three times a week in the same area.
Once I start seeing the results in three to four months I started to use it less often. I do use it once a week now but to be honest sometimes I just get lazy or forget so I try to use it once a week but again every two three weeks I do use it.
About The Machine - Silk'n Flash & Go Express
It has five settings when you are new i highly recommend that you start at the lowest setting which is one. Give it a try then see how your skin reacts.
If your skin can tolerate it then you continue it at the same level one for two or three sessions. Then you can go up gradually to level two. Give it a try for two or three times. This way slowly move up to five. Your patience is most important here.
Is it painful ?
It doesn’t really cause pain and it’s pretty much painless. But sometimes you just feel a sudden spark of light, but it’s not painful.
Safety button
I like its safety button. You can use it where the area is not flat or the skin has depth. It will save you from burns.
Does this machine work?
It hasn’t reduced a hundred percent hair but I have seen 80% to 90% reduction in my hair growth which is amazing. I am really pleased with it, you will get a noticeable difference.
It will reduce the thickness of hair once you use it regularly for 3 – 4 months. So it works but you do have to keep in mind that it is not a magic. It doesn’t work overnight you have to be consistent.
Is it worth buying?
Yes, it is simple quick safe to use in the comfort from your own home so I personally like it a lot. It saves you a lot of money though will consume some time definitely, if you don’t have patience of at least 3 – 4 months then don’t try it at all.
Do I recommend it ?
I do recommend it as long as you figure out your skin type. Because the only downside with it is that you may get burned if you have dark skin with dark hair.
Don’t use it on the wet face to avoid any electrical shock. Once you wash your face, it must dry.
Cons
- Sometimes the machine does not work as intended so try it carefully within the return period ( 30 days ) so that you can get another replacement or a full refund.
- Take 20 days to remove hairs in male legs.
- Previous model was more powerful.
- Not black girl friendly.
Conclusion
Silk’n Flash and Go Express is overall a good laser hair removal product but will take some time to get the desired result. Don’t buy it if you have dark skin with dark hair and less patience. All the best for your unwanted hair removal initiatives. Take care !
