    What in the hell happened to the mens beauty product range, you used to have like 1 page in the argos catalog that had Shavers/Hair trimmers and every other girly things us metrosexuals enjoy.


    Need to get a Shaver that doubles as a beard trimmer, do such things exist? Want to be able to clean shave with it and if im in the mood a bit of desinger stuble (hey the girls hate it but I think it looks rugged and stuff, RAWR).

    Also has to be cheap haha

    So the question is, do such a thing exist at all? All the argos catalog shows me is one that does either, either clean shave OR beard trim.

    Pfff lifes so complicated, and tomorow is christmas eve!

    I dont think Ive ever seen one that trims beards and shaves the face tbh - they trim side-locks alrite. Im sure you can get these beard trimmers quite cheap in argos so how about getting a beard trimmer and a shaver?

    Haha I know! There is a whole 9 pages or so devoted to Shavers and everything!

    But there all either Philips ones which all look the same, or that Braun Activator one that cleans itself. I tell you what though, for 280squid it would want to fruckin clean itself the cheeky fecker!

    Need simple device really that performs both tasks below!

    Task one

    _________________ <- smooth skin, no hairs!



    Task two

    _|_|_|_|_|_|_|_|_ <- small stuble, for rough look, Mmmmm!


    Example of Task two:

    Actually I've been meaning to start a thread myself asking for shaver advice. I can't use razors for eh... 'medical reasons'

    And I just have a crappy PhiliShave that I got on my 18th birthday that's getting on a bit in it's life now... it doesn't really slice hairs off any more... it just sort of grabs and pulls them out. So I'm sitting here hairy as a chimp as I'm affraid to use the thing.

    I think I got one of the Braun ones last year at christmas, but it was rubbish and you had to mash it right into your face for it to do any good at all.

    Can anyone recommend a good shaver?

    Sharza,
    Can you not get the stubble look by not shaving for a day? How does Colin Farrel do it?

    you can get a Braun Cruzer3, which is just a regular shaver but has attachments for trimming and styling the beard 85 quid, or a scherna (not sure on the spelling) thing that has interchangable heads, two for shaving (normal and sensitive), one for beards, one for heads, 119 euro. Both Available in Boots
