  • Excellent every day head shaver!
Color: Silver
I shave my head completely to the baby skin point so this review will be from that perspective. First let me start by saying DON’T buy those gimmicky rotary razors with 5+ heads that make all sort of claims about ease of use and closeness of shave. I’ve tried them all - Remington, Pitbull Skull Shaver, Freebird - and they are all garbage. They take forever, do a terrible job, and always leave patches you have to clean up, and dang are they pricey for such a poor product. They suck, period. This razor is the real deal. I have extremely sensitive skin so using clippers or cartridge razors always left red blotchy spots on my head for days due to the irritation and took forever to get the close shave and look I wanted. That caused me to wait weeks to shave my head, letting it grow out to shave less frequently and save my skin. I wore hats and beanies way more frequently than I wanted to cover the growth, then the irritation. That’s a thing of the past with this bad boy. I use this every day, every other day, or every 2nd/3rd day depending on my schedule and I can keep the fresh shaved bald look with zero irritation in a matter of 2-3 minutes. And the shave is the closest I’ve ever had from an electric razor, it’s practically at blade shave level. I don’t use shave product and I go directly against the grain, however you can use product with this razor. As a note, this thing *can* handle slightly longer hair but it takes a while to get through it and it isn’t where this thing shines. If you shave your head, the best way to use this is to use clippers or a blade to shave your head once, then use this as your maintenance razor to easily keep your look. It’s super easy to clean!! Just a few drops of dish soap, a little water, and turn it on until the soap lathers through the blades. Rinse and you’re done!! This is comparable and, in my opinion, superior to Braun’s offerings with a slightly higher initial cost. This is offset by the fact that you don’t have to constantly buy cleaning cartridges for it like Braun requires. Pros: -Extremely close shave, very close to a blade -Long battery life -Great on sensitive skin, leaves no irritation marks -Easy to clean -Ridiculously fast shave if used as a head maintenance razor -Can be used with or without shave oil/cream -Excellent razor for my fellow bald kings Cons: -Not as great on longer hair -Slightly higher up front cost but offset by ease of cleaning -Not mentioned/discussed nearly enough in forums where men are doing the razor hunt This razor took my head shaving to a whole new level and is worth every penny. If you’re on the fence and this review resonates with your needs, take the plunge, you won’t regret it! *Update* - Almost a year later and this thing is still my favorite razor I’ve ever owned for head shaves. I’m in the process of filming a quick video to show how quick and effective this really is. I would add that getting a good Tea Tree face wash to use on your head, as well as a snail mucin moisturizer to rub on after shaving is excellent. For the Tea Tree I recommend Aromatica’s Tea Tree wash, and for the moisturizer I recommend Cosrx or Mizon’s snail cream. ... show more

  • Excellent shaver!
Color: Silver
After 6+ months of using this razor all I can say is it’s outstanding. Close shave ( almost as close as razor ). Great build quality and ease of use. Easy to clean. Waterproof. Charges quickly and last a long time on charge. Japanese quality. Worth every penny

  • Excellent shaver, but overpriced.
Color: Silver
My Panasonic shaver from a decade ago started acting up (I probably just wore it out), and I recall it cost somewhere around $60. This one was over $150. I am not seeing the value proposition in this product, as it really isn't much different except for some slightly improved electrical technology and a larger cutting head. But aside from that, it's the best shaver I've ever owned. It trims away my "scruff" with minimal effort and at a much faster pace than the old one, thanks to the additional cutting blades. I don't look forward to replacing the cutters and foils (they are also very expensive) and I'll be curious to see if they last the entire year as advertised. But again, the results so far have been very good. ... show more

  • Annoyingly Good
Color: Silver
I NEVER write reviews but really had to for this. Strap in. I used to be in the military and couldn’t have facial hair. Then I left and immediately grew a beard. I had that for almost ten years. Then I joined the fire department and couldn’t have a beard (I’m just rocking a mustache instead). When I’ve needed to shave, I’ve taken it REALLY seriously. I’ve used straight i.e. cutthroat razors, I’ve used safety razors, I’ve had badger brushes and shaving creams. You name it, I’ve tried it. I REALLY wanted a straight razor shave to be unbelievably close and awesome. Don’t get me wrong, using one of those feels badass but it was never incredibly close. Anyway, here I am, a couple of months in on a mustache-only regime and due to time and travel (hand baggage only), I thought an electric shaver might be a good idea (despite thinking it absolute sacrilege to go this route). I looked up all the reviews and just about every single one said Braun series 7 or 9. I suspect that Braun have put down some serious marketing cash but I won’t slate them because I haven’t used them. Then I looked at Which? magazine (a U.K. review magazine, which is a paid for subscription and therefore more impartial). Anyway, they recommended a Panasonic that’s a few years old. This one was new and cheaper, so I went with this. Dear reader, I’m devastated to tell you that despite my hours and hours of time, a lot of energy, and cash to get an amazing wet shave, this shaver blows it all out of the water. It’s incredibly quick and genuinely the closest shave I’ve ever had. It’s really annoying. I feel like a total sell-out but it really is that good. A couple of notes: 1. Yes, you will get the occasional hair that refuses to get cut but I found that with wet shaving and eventually they all succumb but it might be on the next shave. 2. I didn’t get the cleaning station. This seems like a blatant up-sell. I got myself a tiny brush and will just use that and the occasional dab of mineral oil. In my experience, these sorts of ‘automatic’ cleaning devices rarely work well. 3. Personal experiences may vary. I have pretty thick hair and get 5 o’clock shadow. My first shave was about 3 days growth and I felt no snagging. 4. I’ve found (perhaps unsurprisingly) that you get a better shave from the middle of the foils, so in tricky places - like around the ear lobe and mustache - you have to get stuck in a bit closer than feels comfortable to get it all. Don’t worry, it won’t hoover up your cookie duster or Van Gogh you. Simply amazing. Honestly, I was shocked. Give it a try (and tell no-one). Update: I’m a few more days in and still amazed on the daily. Battery power is great and yesterday I was pushed for time and ended up shaving in the car; can’t do that with a wet razor. Update - 15 months later: Still happy with the razor but wondered when I should look at changing the blades/foils. General advice seems to be 12-18 months and I’m right in the middle of that bracket. I shave most days and have fairly thick stubble, so figured it’s about time. The new blade and foil set is around $85, so I wanted to be sure. I kept the old set just in case and gave the new ones a go. Unreal. Like a new razor. So close and so fast. It’s annoying to lay out that kind of money but it comes out at about $5.60 a month, so really not that bad. If you’re around the 12-18 month point and aren’t sure, go for it. Oh, and clean your razor daily with a little brush, wash it in water once a week and use mineral oil to keep it lubricated. It’ll extend the life for sure. ... show more
