Women’s Electric Razors – A Convenient Alternative

November 4, 2011

Women’s electric razors have become very popular in recent years. gone are the days when a woman had to use a regular disposable razor that becomes dull after just a couple of uses. Those kinds of razors are not suitable for the soft skin that most women want to develop on their legs.

One perk of using an electric razor is that it usually does not require the use of shaving gel or cream. in fact you can get models that will work while wet or dry. this means that a woman can use one in the shower for added convenience if she so chooses. some women choose to use their electric razor while sitting on the side of a tub or on the counter top beside the sink.

Electric razors used to only be reserved for men, which was just as well because it wasn’t rare for them to cut the skin. Which may give a man the rugged look that he likes but it certainly isn’t a look that any women wants.

Much of the design and production work has already been done over the years in the market for mens razors so women are now able to find many different models and styles. in fact, they come in a variety of price ranges that allow you to think about buying one as a special gift for the loved one in your life if she needs one and you are sure that she won’t be offended by such a personal item.

Typically, you will find that electric razors reduce the chances of irritation to the skin. They last a long time, which will save you money over the course of several years because you no longer have to buy shaving creams or disposable razors. Women love the idea of spending less money while making their daily rituals a bit easier.

Best Shaver Products For Men – Shave Gel and Aftershave

October 12, 2011

Most people should try and find the best shaver products available. For those of you who shave everyday, or at least 3 or 4 times a week finding the best shaver and best aftershave can really improve your overall shaving experience.

Should you use electrical shavers or disposable blades, and what aftershave to pick? there are definitely pros and cons to both electric shavers and disposable blades. If you buy a quality electric razor you will probably save money over time, but it will require more of an investment up front. Electric shavers are also more convenient and easier to use. On the other hand some people don’t react well to these types of shavers. It is always recommended to give yourself several weeks to get use to a new shaver, but some people’s skin is just too sensitive.

Some of the cons of electric shavers is that they just don’t last that long. some products that are not top of the line have only lasted a few months. now, this is not a regular occurrence but some people complain that their shaver battery died within the first year. Disposable razors are very easy to use and some people feel they give a closer shave. but they are not as convenient and you still need to replace the blades every few weeks.

Customer reviews are a great way to help you choose the right shave, but don’t let one type of review influence your decisions. one bad review should not deter you from buying a product. People’s skin and personal experiences are different when it comes to shavers. some top brands have received many 5 out of 5 star reviews, but there is always the occasional bad review. This shows how some people just don’t react well to certain products. It also shows that once and a while there can be defective products. so again, don’t let these small percentages of people influence your buying decision.

After you find yourself the best shaver for you, you will want to consider a shaving gel and aftershave product. No shaving routine is complete without applying a quality aftershave or shaving balm. some products are designed to help reduce skin irritation and provide an attractive scent, while others can help prevent dry skin. Often times the best way to purchase aftershave is in a gift set package.

Review of the Top Three Braun Electric Shavers

October 5, 2011

If you like to use an electric shaver, you know how disappointing of a shave they can often give. It is tough to find one that actually gets as close as a traditional razor. Unfortunately, in order to get that close shave on a traditional razor, you often end up heading into work for the day with a face full of toilet paper from all the cuts you endure during your shave. Lucky for all of us, Braun comes through again and Braun’s top 3 electric shavers give the closest shave that will have you putting that straight blade where it belongs, in the trash

The Braun Series 7760CC is far and away the best electric shaver on the market. It will give you the closest shave of any electric shaver that is out and gives you the convenience of a self cleaning system that takes a lot of the inconvenience out of owning an electric razor. It also has one of the longest lasting charges that are available on an electric razor.

* Super long charge * self cleaning feature * Painless shaving

* Expensive (but you get what you pay for)

* Noisy cleaning system

The Braun Series 1190 gives you a less expensive option and still get the quality of shave that only Braun can deliver. this shaver gives you just as good as a shave as the Braun 7760CC but lacks some of the punch as far as bells and whistles go on the more expensive models. It is a great option to explore if you don’t want to spend the money for one of the higher end models and remember, you always have 30 days to try it out and return it if you are not happy with it.

* thin foil design gives you just as close as a shave as the more expensive models

* Cannot be used if you have let your hair grow in for a couple of days

* A lot noisier than the more expensive models

* no self cleaning mode (but as mentioned above, cleaning is quite easy)

The Braun Series 5570CC is another great option from Braun that will deliver a high quality shave at a reasonable price. While it is rated below the other two Braun’s, the completion is stiff and it really could come down to just a matter of preference as to which one you choose.

* Delivers a high quality shave

* does not have a vibrating head

* at the higher end of foil shavers (but it does deliver the best shave of any of them)

Bikini Line Hair Removal – Are Razors Better Than Pubic Shavers?

September 29, 2011

Razors are cheap and many women say they give a closer shave than an electric razor. the cons are they can nick or cut the skin, and lathering up every time you want to shave can be annoying. If you do decide to use a razor as a pubic hair shaver make sure it’s a good one. Choose a female razor and go for best quality rather than lowest price. Throwaway razors are not much good for bikini line hair removal and they are more likely to cause razor burns and soreness while you’re shaving and ingrown hairs later on.

Electric shavers for women have been around since the late 1940s, although some of the early models were basically just men’s shavers but pink. Today female shavers are much more common and it’s possible to buy shavers designed specifically for bikini line hair removal. other shavers come with separate shaving foils for pubic shaving. Pubic shavers with hypoallergenic foils, skin coolers, and built-in trimmers are also available.

Fewer shaving cuts and convenience are among the reasons for using a pubic hair shaver. There’s no need to use shaving foam with an electric pubic shaver and it will be safer to use because the skin is protected from the blade. Razor burns will also not be a problem. Some pubic shavers can even be taken in the shower and some manufacturers claim their shavers will shave as close as a razor. If you decide to buy one, make sure you do some research of your own first.

Electric shaver or razor?

To summarize, electric pubic shavers tend to be quicker, safer and easier to use but they may not give such a close shave as a razor. They also cost more. If you change from one to the other, make sure you give yourself a chance to get used to it.

3 Reasons You Should Buy a Women’s Electric Shaver

July 8, 2011

If, like myself, having a soft skin, free of hair and cuts is something that you try to maintain (at least during summer…), you may want to consider buying an electric shaver for women. there are many reasons to purchase one of those, and I’ll explain you why.

1.Affordability if you think that you will need to spend lots of money on a women’s electric razor, think again. unlike for the men’s one, the electric razor for women is one affordable device. Going for $15 to $40 for the high-end model, there are no excuse when it comes to its cost. Now many would think that they would want to spend over $100 on the men’s one to get the cream of the crop. Well ladies, know that for your needs, it would be crazy to invest over $100 on an electric shaver. the reason women’s models are so much cheaper is that the skin of the face is much more delicate than the skin of the leg, plug the face has so much contours and details, unlike a pretty pair of legs.

2. Convenience how often have you spend hours in the bathroom epilating every part of your body. then having to shave after because you missed some spots? how often have you decided not to shave when going on a trip, because you didn’t want to sit in the tub of the hotel? how often have you had to switch to a pair of pants instead of a skirt on because you didn’t have time to shower or bathe to shave your legs with a manual shaver, or to epilate your legs before going out? Well an electric shaver can do all of this easily. it provides a fast and fairly close shave, can be conveniently used in or out of the shower and can easily be packed in any suitcase.

3. Smooth and painless say buy to the razor burns, razor bumps and ingrown hair. if you skin is sensitive, manual shaving can be the cause of painful razor burns. if you epilate a lot, you can be prone to lots of ingrown hair. Well electric shavers can fix all those problems.

Does shaving this way work?anyone?

July 5, 2011

Womens shaving??
i've read about electic shavers for legs that don't require your legs to wet or to use shaving cream. and it like rotates so you can't cut yourself? it sounds a little too good to be true. are there really things like this, how do they work, what are you opinions, where do i get one, and why doesn't everyone use one if they do exsist??

I AM STILL GOING THE OLD FASHION WAY SO IF THERE IS a NEW WAY SPREAD THE LIGHT THIS WAY.

They don't shave a close as a razor,

well..an electric razor might not be such a great idea. it's better to get one of the electric epilators. there are some drawbacks to using those as well ( your skin isn't as soft as when shaving and at times hair can grow in)overall…with time you will have only 50% of your hair left.

They exist, and they work… kind of.

They work like a mens electric razor. if your hair grows slowly, it will work fine, but require you to shave daily or every other day. if your hair grows faster, like a mans facial hair, you could get 5:00 shadow on your legs by the end of the day. these razors cut the hair off just above the surface, whereas a blade cuts the hair off just at or below the surface, and waxing tears the hair out below the surface.

It pulls the hairs out. Search google for epilady.

Sounds painful :O

I was given an electric razor as a teen (admittedly about 20 years ago). They work OK, but unless they've improved a lot since then, you don't get nearly as close a shave.
