My Braun worked fine the last time I used it & would not come on when I tried it today. Worked on it & found it to be jammed with hair. Would not rotate. Scrubbed it with a toothbrush, started digging out the hair, forced it to rotate, scrubbed it some more, & rotated it some more. The more I worked with it the more hair kept coming out. It's rotating fine now. I think I'm going to clean it with my water pik. My Braun is the kind that can be used with water & the top part comes off. Haven't used it yet but I think I have fixed it. Wish I could get it apart to clean it out but the head of the screw is strange & I don't have anything that will turn it.
I faced the same problem. I forced the epilator head to rotate manually, pulled out the bunch of hair stuck in the edges. It's working fine now.
Hello, I had the same problem as you guys: the performance of my epilator got really weak and I found out there was a lot of hair inside its head.
I tried to open it but couldn t find the appropriate tool. What did you use, a screwdriver or a key?

Hey , were your able to find any solution for your problem. I opened my epilator and now this wire is not in its place. I dont remember how it used to be :(

Remove the head of the shaver and clean thoroughly. Also, make sure to oil the motor and run the oil in.

Probably a whole bunch muck is inside theyre (science Project ewe), are you sure you want to open it up? ok... there should some screws underneath the plastic covering but you will need to kind of rip that off and reapply some sticky appoxy after.
