Danusia Wnek conducted the Lab test on electric shavers and provided lots of information about the testing and how electric razors work. She has been testing skincare products including but not limited to eye creams, serums, night creams, neck creams, facial oils and moisturizing creams for over seven years at the Good Housekeeping Institute.

Work it into the blades with an old toothbrush and make sure any excess is removed. If culture wars were to ever erupt in the beard-trimming sphere, the sharpness of beard lines would be one of the key debates. Some like them blended and subtle, some like them so sharp and neat you could get a paper cut from them. Wherever you stand on this crucial battleground, the King C Gillette Style Master will deliver it. “Look barber fresh everyday” boasts the packaging, and it’s true, you will. This solid trimmer, on its neat charging stand, feels like a weapon only they use.
On that note, the Lawn Mower 4.0 has a built-in tiny flashlight and it’s so useful. Second, dry the skin with a towel and use a bit of talcum powder (baby powder). If there’s a cooler room you can use, definitely try that or crank up the AC during hot summer days before you actually start trimming. Moreover, the trimmer won’t glide smoothly and will constantly drag and skip over the skin.
We think this tool’s extra power and maneuverability more than make up for the limited selection of included attachments. The Series 7000 with it’s unique dual-sided design let’s you switch between shaving & trimming. The trimmer has 5 different lengths for trimming anywhere on your body. Better yet, the two-sided design means less attachment swapping/finding, which could cut down on potential misplaced parts that you may incur with the other units you might be considering. The other 3mm guard has the same issue, it’s not as effective with flat-lying hairs as the Bodygroom 5000 which is also a pull-style trimmer with detachable guards. It’s particularly useful when trimming the genital area; it cuts close and does a fine job, although it requires more work to get all the hairs compared to a large Philips Bodygroom trimmer for example.
That’s why I actually prefer the Bodygroom 5000 (pull-style) for trimming body hair even though it has removable guards instead of the integrated comb. Using the Bodygroom 5000 on the rest of the body is easy and enjoyable and the trimmer is very effective at cutting flat-lying hairs as well. For a close, skin-level trim, regardless of the area, you’d be better off with a pull-style trimmer with a foil+blades head. Whether it’s your first time nose philips shaver trimming or you’re simply keen to avoid any accidents, this trimmer is guaranteed to provide an easy, comfortable user experience. Skull Shaver’s razor with a four head blade smoothly shaves large areas with an ergonomic handle, making it quick and comfortable, important factors for those who do it often. This one was not tested in the Lab, but we love that it’s worldwide voltage compatible, making it great to use at home or when traveling.
It charged quickly and almost all were happy with the look of their nostrils after use. Coming with a full kit, this trimmer is equipped to deal with pretty much anything you may throw at it. Does anybody really want to endure the debacle of waxing their nostrils?
Just be cautious when using as one reviewer noted the nicks on his neck after shaving. This one is lightweight, easy to grip and, with its bright-light-green colouring, a breath of fresh air visually. The 360 blade travelled along with the shape of my face, which meant I could trim difficult-to-reach sections philips body groomer and didn’t miss any hairs. Like a lot of men, I became alarmingly obsessed with the quest for the perfect beard styler during lockdown. Unable to go and ask a Turkish barber to trim my facial hair into a perfectly contoured thing of beauty, I was forced to try and do that myself in my bathroom.
