How to choose the beard trimmer we want?

September 25, 2019

Shaving is an integral part of every adult man's life. That is why it is advisable to pay attention to the high quality of the product they are purchasing, as it will protect the skin from irritation.

Manufacturers are constantly trying to improve electric shaver models and make them more comfortable.

There are 2 types of razors - mechanical and electric.

Both types of razors have their pros and cons. A certain number of men choose a mechanical razor, one of the reasons for this can be considered its low price. However, there is a higher risk of skin irritation when using a mechanical razor.

The main advantage of an electric shaver is the ability to shave quickly. It can be used at home, in the bathroom, and in transport. However, its downside is that it can cause irritation to sensitive skin.

Electric shavers also come in 2 types - rotary and foil.

Rotary beard trimmer - Typically, a rotary shaver has three rotating circular blades. It is very convenient for short, uneven beards. Usually, this type of shaver has a facial contour following system.

Razor with a mesh blade - This type of beard trimmer is distinguished by a net that protects the skin from damage. It is very comfortable for long beards. Despite the positive qualities of a net beard trimmer, it can be said that a rotary beard trimmer gives a cleaner shave.

Cleaning - If you don't think you need a wet and dry shaver, you should at least make sure that you can clean your shaver under running water. Some shavers have a self-cleaning system, which is very convenient and comfortable.

Additional features of the beard trimmer

Some modern men's electric beard trimmers also feature a trimmer function. The trimmer is used to trim the beard, hair, and sideburns. There are 4 types of trimmers, such as: floating, fixed, integrated, and retractable trimmers.

Power source - The power source for a beard trimmer can be either a mains power supply or a battery, or both. If a beard trimmer is part of your daily life, it is advisable to choose a model that can be charged in your car.

Battery-powered shavers generally have lithium-ion batteries, which are quite common and last quite a long time.

Number of shaving heads - Generally, rotary shaving systems are equipped with 2-3-5 shaving heads, while foil systems are equipped with 1 to 4. The quality of the shave depends on the number of shaving heads.

Kit - Usually, a beard trimmer comes with a protective cap, a soft or hard travel bag, a special brush for cleaning the shaver heads, and a charging cable or a special charging stand.
