About this deal

An electric shaver is a lot more forgiving, the learning curve is less steep and most men find the process more enjoyable and less time-consuming. The most budget-friendly of the bunch and the smallest of them all, the Palm Face and Head Shaver is a simple design with a three-head rotary blade. When choosing a head shaver, there are a few key features to consider to produce the closest shave and best fit your personal shaving needs: Any info/advice you could share would be excellent. If the Remington cuts as close as the Philips, it’s a done deal. But I’m open to suggestions.

While you’d be using circular motions with a rotary razor and straight strokes with a foil shaver, make sure it’s always against the direction of hair growth and adjust it accordingly. I started off I buying the Remington XR1500 to start with, but wasnt that pleased with how close the shave was. Tried a Skull shaver platinum next which was even worse, fortunately I had no problems returning it to Pitbull UK. So I ended up with the Andis profoil and have been using that ever since. I know I’ve mentioned it several times in this post, but an electric (head) shaver will only work well on short hair. You can use your free hand to feel any remaining rough patches and also assess the direction of hair growth. I always thought that shearing blades are shearing blades, i.e. that the only time you get a different length cut is if you add on guards. Am I wrong?

What’s the best head shaver in 2023?

There are similar mirrors from other brands available as well if you can’t get this one. In my opinion there are three things that matter when choosing one:

The clipper is fitted with a Li-ion battery for up to 40 minutes of cordless operation. However, it will also work with the cord plugged in which is a major bonus. I’ve got to add my 2 cents here so that others don’t make the same mistake I did in buying a Skull Shaver product. You’re spot-on about the downsides of electrics: a less close but often acceptable shave, ergonomics of holding the shaver to reach everywhere take some getting used to, and diminishing battery life. To get a closer shave with an electric, I am thinking about buying a finishing razor like the Wahl Finale, which a barber showed me once. I was nearly convinced until I just read your review. Your assessment might have swayed me to look at the Andis instead. I have a question for you about this at the end of this long comment. The HC4250 is waterproof and fully washable, so cleaning it is a breeze. This is a big deal as hair clippers are a pain to clean if you can’t rinse them with water.

Product features

You can achieve this by either using one machine (like the Philips Norelco QC5580) or by having two separate ones. For example, a basic/cheap hair clipper and a shaver (rotary or foil). You can even take this one step further and instead of a regular hair clipper, why not get the ShortCut Pro from Remington? That one will be even better for what you need with the wide and curved blade. And it gets really close, so you’ll have your work cut out for you when you follow up with a shaver. As I mentioned in the review, the Andis ProFoil will get you the closest shave, but it won’t be as easy and fast as using a rotary shaver like the Balder Pro. This is particularly important if you’re using a foil or rotary head shaver to get that really close shave. Includes one-year (Palm, Silver and Gold) or two-year full warranty (Platinum Pro) and satisfaction guarantee

If you’re using your head shaver dry (so no shaving cream/gel), any moisture on the scalp will have a negative impact on the quality of the shave and will make the whole experience less enjoyable. Battery life: Chulpayev also advises seeking out a longer battery life so you don’t have to worry about constantly having to charge it. Most head shavers average 60 to 90 minutes of battery life. Depending on how often you use the shaver and how long it takes to shave your whole head, that can last you a few weeks before you need to charge it again.

Electric head shavers vs razor blades

It’s the reason why we don’t see any of these rotary shavers + guards — this setup doesn’t work. On the other hand, a guard works great when paired with shearing blades — beard trimmers, hair clippers and so on. While we love the Platinum Skull Shaver, you don’t necessarily need all the extra trimmings to get the cleanest shave. We think the Gold Pro has the most value, but if you’re looking for a supreme clean and want a two-year warranty, we suggest upgrading to the Platinum Pro. It’s truly a stylish tool! Skull Shaver FAQs Is the Skull Shaver Any Good? From the products I recommended above, the Remington ShortCut Pro can deal with any length of hair.
