Comparing Electric Shavers

Sunday, August 9th, 2009

All you ask from an electric shaver is for the closest shave possible. But one of the problems with some shavers is that they leave stubble. Another thing you want is for it to be easy to clean.

I’ve had my Norelco electric shaver for over 25 years and it still works. Maybe it has lasted so long is because I use it only an average of once per week. I hardly clean it like I should but that doesn’t seem to have affected its performance. My shaver didn’t give the smoothest shave, but it was close enough that stubble wasn’t noticeable for a few hours.

I’ve never gone back to using a disposable razor. I remember having to buy and use shaving cream. My skin is very thin and I would easily cut myself. Back in those days I was younger and had to navigate around the occasional pimple.

Although I’ve know my electric shaver is old and there are better models these days such as the Braun electric shaver, I never thought of buying a new one. Maybe because I was never aware of how these newer shavers are self cleaning and they have a vibrating head to help get a closer cleaner shave. The old model I have had three rotary heads which was probably a clever revolutionary design in those days and probably still is today.

However, I read this review of Braun shavers that might interest men who are looking for their first or next electric shaver. I talks about the main features that make shaving easy and convenient. Braun has three shavers to choose from and this review of Braun shavers compares them side by side.
