This is not doing anything, and I am confused by all the good ratings. It didn't cut any of the hair - am I doing something wrong???

Same here - I bought it partly because of the glowing Amazon reviews, and it barely shaves 1 day old stubble.

This is a rather handy and inexpensive gadget, it serves my purpose as a traveling shaver. It is nicely designed.

I haven't had any issue with this. However, being a relatively inexpensive mobile shaver. I do not use this shaver with a thick week growth beard. I used it if I have a little stubble and want to touch it up and smooth my face. I believe the foil on this is very thin being a travel type shaver and it is possible that like others have suggested perhaps your beard is too long or maybe you have a defective unit. It seems to work fairly well for my touch up needs.

Try it using a very small amount of liquid soap or a thin layer of shave cream. I just tried the one Braun sent to me while my 300 series is being repaired(under warranty). It worked for me but of course, no electric will work as well as a DE blade. Try the thin layer of shave cream, rinse the blade after a few passes and see if it helps. Electric razors...no matter what the ads say, do not work well on anything more than a few days growth.Good luck!

It does not cut normal hair well.....unless you spend five times the amount of time to do it! Which means you go over the same spot ten times to cut the hair.

I've been using it since January and have seen no evidence of this on my scalp. I feel my scalp is healthier, but absolutely no hair growth. My skin care specialist recommended it for the same reason as yours, but I think it's bunk. But I like how it makes my scalp feel. Don't pull it through your hair - it will weigh it down, which won't help thin hair.

Didn't work for me and I have hair! If I were u, I'd save my money and try something like Minoxidal (sp?)

You and me too! I have no idea so to avoid frustration have accepted the fact to use only as a basic trimmer. If you figure it out get back to me with this encouraging news to share, capise?

The instructions were confusing.My recommendation is: Don't use this product. It dry my hair so much that I had to trim it 2" . I don't recommend this product. Good luck.

I don't remember it striping my hair. I do not suggest buying this product to produce more hair tho. It doesn't work. Or didn't work for me.

I threw it out. It's technically works, I mean if you put batteries, of course it works, but it does not removes hairs. I tried almost in every area hoping it can remove hair even somewhere, but nope. So, I threw it.

I am using from last six month and didn't find any improvement. It may be natural but not helpful to stop the hair loss. These 5* reviews seems fake.

No, my little girl uses it too! We have really thick hair and have not noticed any change.

Does it get juice when turned on? If it does, and just not cutting, maybe the blade is not snapped in place all the way, or dull? If it is and just vibrating and just wont cut, I would send back!

It did NOT remove any hair - I tried it on my arm, my leg, and my face. I also tried it on my husband's arm and leg and his hair was all still there, too.

I had never tried it until this morning and it works great!! I think it depends on your type hair. I normally use it on wet hair.

My hairs pretty thick & it worked fine on a few pieces. I didn't do my whole hair. Depending how thick or how your hair takes it but i would recommend maybe when your doing it do little pieces at a time. Its a good product definitely got my money's worth.

I thought it was working for me. But I have discovered my hair gets thin in cycles, then comes in again. It is hard to tell if it's the Hair Max or not. Knowing what I know now I probably wouldn't buy it again. Hair Max does seem to give my hair body. Not much help, sorry.

There must be something wrong with the dryer. The two settings on mine are cool and warm enough to dry the hair, but definitely not hot. I've never burned my scalp or my hair. I really like this dryer, so maybe you send it back or contact the company.
