About this deal

To guide you on your quest for the perfect beard trimmer, we've tested the best tools on the market in our state-of-the-art Men's Health Lab. Brand new for 2021 this premium hair clipper for men from BaByliss Men is the coolest-looking of all the trimmers we reviewed. The additional cutting elements and stronger motor of the series 9 makes quick work of my thick hair and catches my flat lying hairs with less effort then the lower models. But it won't handle long hairs as well as a rotary shaver or the slotted head elements on more expensive models of Braun or Panasonic shavers.

It got through hair in just one stroke and most were pleased with how it handled tricky areas, manoeuvring around the contours of the face and body with ease. Obviously, you’ll be using it to trim body hair, but we can further divide that into the pubic area and the rest of the body. It’s very practical and useful and you won’t have to deal with fitting and removing different size guards. Explore our other comprehensive grooming guides, like our round-ups of the best full body hair trimmers, hair clippers, and electric shavers.That said, if you need a body trimmer for a close and safe shave in the groin area, you should be looking for a pull-style groomer that uses a foil element + blades (like most Philips Bodygroom models). Lightweight but solid, Philips’ cordless hair clipper offers an impressive one hour and 30 minutes cutting from a single one hour charge, has self-sharpening blades and 28 separate length settings. This is a very effective system for cutting body hair close to the skin since it’s fast and comfortable as the two blades that flank the foil usually have rounded teeth to prevent the skin from getting nicked. As for the cons, groomers with such blades can (and most will) nick the skin if you’re not very careful, especially when trimming more sensitive areas (groin, armpits).

Without the pre-set length clip-on, the shave is tight, if not quite as tight as others, but there’s a flick-out mini razor which allows you to get into the awkward spots for accurate, targeted shaving. This is a more advanced type of trimmer head; the foil element uses blades that oscillate behind a thin, perforated metal screen.The gold-coloured blades also set it aside visually from those old-school boys with their silver fangs. Man, with three full time jobs with these big corporations (plus all my scheduled time of trying to convert people off safety razors online) I feel bad for my poor wife and dog who never get to see me! I've tried to embrace forgiveness, and it's weird, but I've been noticing that I have went out of my way to take offense, and even more sadly, I seem to be looking for chances to offend! Easily maintain the perfect weekend stubble or go close for a business-class smooth shave during the week. If it has one con its that it’s let down slightly by the pasticy, toy-like feel of the dial-controlled length guard for shorter styles.
