The Philips Bodygroom Series 1000 Cordless Body Groomer features a waterproof design that enables easy cleaning and maintenance of the device. Its compact design makes it extremely portable and helps you to trim unwanted body hair with ease. It comes with an AA battery that gives up to two months of lasting power and will be ready for you when you need a trim without delay. Battery performance philips trimmer blade and run-time may differ depending on hair type and frequency of use. The Body groom has 0.5mm built-in length options that provide a precise trim and for longer hair use 3mm comb for safe and easy hair trimming across all body areas. The Bi-directional trimmer works in both backwards and forwards direction to cut even the long and toughest hairs that give you a clean and consistent look.
Philips recommends replacing it every 12 months, but in my experience it lasts even twice as long provided you clean it regularly. Well, it does pretty much everything right and philips trimmer blade will get you covered regardless of what you’ll be doing with it. I think it’s too expensive, the replacement blade is pricy as well and it must be changed every 3 months.
I personally stick to a dry trim as it takes me less time and most trimmers are a lot more effective at cutting hairs when they don’t stick to the wet skin, especially if you use a guard. It’s a combination device—and it even extends for reach-behind back shaving ease—but we particularly love this device philips body groomer for its shaver. The foil head gets things trimmed all the way back without risking any delicate skin. If you need a longer trim up instead, the adjustable guard head allows you to snip down to anywhere between 3-7mm. Which means the best body hair trimmer for you comes down to your preferences.
Right now, we are living in what I would argue is the golden age of body hair. In fact, our own 2019 survey found that 62% of men do some sort of manscaping (and this survey focused only on below the belt ‘scaping so it’s probably more if you consider the total body). And, for the record, 62% of women said in that same survey that they prefer a man who does some form of hair control down below. I found none to very little difference in performance and how close the body groomers shaved.
A nice touch is the light on the groomer’s handle, which indicates the power and battery charge status. You’ll see from this review, the Philips standard of functionality and quality remains as high as ever with another exceptional men’s body grooming tool.
