Philips TT2022 Silver Bodygroom
by Divorco
I've always been a very hairy man. Legs, chest, arms. And other places that I wont mention on a family friendly website. It used to annoy me a lot - particularly in hot weather.
If you have the same problem I had, and aren't quite ready for a full on shave, then the phillips body groom is a great option for the modern man. ...
It has two sides - a shaver and a trimmer. The shaver is good for areas you want completely devoid of hair. It cuts very close, is pain free and after months of use I am still yet to experience itching or irritation.
The trimmer is useful for areas that you want to control, but don't want completely bare. The body groom comes with an attached adjustable guard, allowing you to choose which length you want the hair. The guard has three settings, but it would have been nice to have a shorter one - for me sometimes no guard is too short and the shortest setting is too long. But that is my only complaint.
Otherwise, the body groom is a joy to use. It can be used dry or wet. Using it in the shower is very convenient - all the errant hair is washed away down the drain, never to be seen again! However, the body groom does cut hair quite a bit more efficiently when used dry. The only downside is it creates mess, but it does give you an excuse to hoover up!
The battery lasts for an hour which is more than enough for most trim jobs. It needs to be charged for 8 hours to have a full charge. This seemed excessive to me at the beginning, but I just started leaving it on the supplied charging dock overnight and it hasn't been a problem. Read the complete review |

Babyliss 7056BU 6 in 1 All Over Grooming Set
by jlaker1992
Quick introduction:
I recently purchased this as my old trimmer packed up. I was instantly drawn to this because of its 6 different trimming options. I had never used a product from babyyliss before but though it was worth a try. I also got it for half price in tesco when it was on promotion so I got a very good deal for it. I ... have been using it for 3 or 4 months now so I thought it was time to write a review on it! I will now go into more detail on the product.
Price:
I paid only £12 for this and it usually is around £25. I think it is worth it as many products on the market are more expensive than this. It has a few good functions and I believe it could retail at a more expensive price, I'm not complaining though and seriously consider this a bargain. Plus you get a very handy platform to stand it on and charge it on so it is practical and can fit very easily on the side in the bathroom or bedroom. What is included for the price is a beard trimmer, nostril hair trimmer, body trimmer and then some attachments for your hair. You also get a small comb and some oil. Overall it's excellent value because buying a decent nasal hair trimmer can cost you over £10.
Does it work:
The best bit for me is the beard trimmer, it is very easy to use and you can trim it how you like. I have sensitive skin and I don't feel like it hurts me in any way when using it. The nasal hair trimmer is very easy to use and is useful, I have never used one before! I also like the body hair trimmer, it does the chest and parts of the beard very well. I feel I am in control of body hair now. The whole kit looks rather stylish and although it may not feel very expensive when holding it, it looks very expensive and much better than the price may suggest. It's not very heavy and holds it charge for ages which is good. I recently took just the shaver on holiday with me and it didn't take up much room and weight in the baggage! I am really happy with this, I can also say that it is very easy to clean. All you need to do Is run it under water and it cleans most hairs out. It's also very easy to change the different heads needed for different options. You also get very handy instructions which tell you what to do. I will definately be buying babyyliss products in the future as I have had a very good experience with this. It is also very durable and hasn't changed in quality over the 4 months I have owned it.
Overall:
I would recommend this to any man who wants a product that can sort out unwanted hairs all over the body, but can also tidy up the face area. I feel much more confident after using this product and would advise you try it. It's stylish and practical. There are others on the market, but for this price I think it is worth the gamble! I will be giving this product a 5 star rating as I can't find any faults that are worth mentioning. Give it s try if you see it in a store. I have seen it in boots, SuperDrug and tesco so far! Shop around to get a good price like I did :)
Thanks for reading my review, I hope it helped you out!! Read the complete review |

Remington MB320C Beard Trimmer
by smash-11
After much 'encouragement' from the missus, I decided to make a change from wet shaving to allow myself to grow some form of facial hair. However, I was instantly deterred from the idea when I saw the prices of some of the beard trimmers on offer. After searching online and in store for an affordable option I came across this product. I ... was initially sceptical because of the price, but I am happy to report that it has very much proved me wrong.
Although marketed as a 'trimmer', I have quite often used it as my day-to-day shaver. The lower grade settings shave to a very small hair length, in which I could go to work with, whilst avoiding the irritation that comes from wet shaving. The smaller flip-out shaver function is particularly useful in shaping the edges of the beard.
I bought the shaver about a year ago and it continues to work well with no issues at all. The battery life is sufficient so that I do not have to recharge it every few days, and it is easy to clean after use (cleaning brush included). The speed and ease at which it allows me to shave, regardless of length, means that I will continue to use this shaver for the foreseeable future (which will please the missus very much).
I would very much recommend this is any male, or female (you never know), looking for alternatives to wet shaving. Read the complete review |
