Decent quality, company electric shaver (facial)

JohnCleary

I'm clueless when it comes to this stuff....

Can anyone recommend a decent cordless, electric shaver for the face? Doesn't need to be top of the range, just close enough cut to take the rough look away. The more compact the better as will be using it while away travelling etc.

Don't care on price, just want something decent (not OTT) that willl to the job.

Cheers

with electric shavers, I’ve found the ones at the cheaper end of the scale to be not much use…. Even Philips ones…. I have this one in the link above and its compact enough, charges seriously quickly, quiet to use and and you don’t need to put much pressure at all on your face with the shaver, just glides over your skin and cleans up hair and stubble with minimal effort, very comfortable and close shave. Have it about 2 years and no issues.

Cheers - I should have mentioned i'm actually after a trimmer style rather than the type you mention above... ie. https://www.currys.ie/products/philips-mg372033-multigroom-series-3000-7in1-trimmer-black-10242834.html?istCompanyId=fbc6ef6d-ab18-45e3-927a-0cb677794424&istFeedId=0959f117-9faa-4499-80bd-c0265bb2950e&istItemId=rwqripqlw&istBid=t&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiAuqKqBhDxARIsAFZELmK9gTsCf6OvY-6XY2XPbYlBcTzfptC1lhsPsP9MPB61vggA5r4Hsq0aAkieEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds

Gents has anyone got any thoughts on this?

Im in the market for a trimmer that’ll do nose, ears, eyebrows, but will also do a shave of the beard that will leave stubble and allow me to trim sideburns without getting rid of the sideburns altogether.

I have a lawnmower 3.0 for the pubic hair areas which is pretty good.

Do people trim their armpit hair nowadays?

Hi folks, also interested in this topic. I am experimenting with a beard at the moment - have three weeks growth - according to Google, you don't touch it for a month. Any advice welcome.

Thank you for that. An question from someone inexperienced with beards - when did you start using this? I'm on week 3, Google says not to touch the beard for a month.

I can't help with the beard I'm afraid, I only use it for my head and leaving stubble on face.

I'm looking for a shaver that still leaves a bit of stubble rather than a total clean shave.

I have bought a couple of different ones oner the years but all are either useless (Cheap) of give too clean a shave.

Currently using a regular hair trimmer and that giving the result I want but that's on its last legs and doesn't feel like its the real took tool for the job

Hi lads

I have been using the below for stubble save for years now and it's by far the best I've had. I normally use it without any attachments and it looks like a 3 day beard after wet shave. Also I would only buy philips for trimmers I have tried lots of other brands and none compare imo

OP, Panasonic wet and dry shavers would be my recommendation. I use mine wet with shaving gel.

Twice in my life I have tried Phllishaves, never again. Instruments of pure torture. How they remain on the market is beyond me.
