The Andis Profoil, perhaps not surprisingly, also appears on our list of the best electric razors. The shaver is designed with commercial use in mind, but Manto says she would recommend it for home use as well. While that might seem limiting, Manto thinks it makes them a great choice for people who shave regularly. The Peanut, according to even more experts, is also great for shaving your head and manscaping.
While Wahl also sells a cordless version of the Peanut, most of our barbers prefer the corded style because they say it offers more consistent power.
Butler has told us about this electric shaver twice — for this story and for our guide to the best electric razors. Although it works for a wet or dry shave, Butler prefers to shave wet with it — washing his face first, applying a shaving gel and letting it sit for a minute, and then going in with the razor. Marissa Machado , a celebrity groomer and makeup artist, and two regular guys — Strategist contributor Kurt Soller and New Scientist editor Conrad Quilty-Harper — like the OneBlade electric razor from Philips Norelco, another classic brand.
DOVO was one of the razor makers we heard about the most when we asked hot towel barbers about their favorite straight razors. Butler recommends the Bizmark for its solid construction — it feels heavy in your hands, but that actually helps with mastering your angles and grip.
With a cartridge razor, you have the luxury of having multiple blades remove every hair and also pivot to the space it is gliding over. The sharp, thin blade on this razor makes for a clean, close shave, according to Waldman. It features a durable carbon-steel blade and a stainless-steel handle that wears well, even when wet, he adds. Novelty aside, straight razors — and shavettes — allow for a unique degree of control while shaving, and since they are so low-profile and precise, they are great for detail work and shaping beards.
Another straight razor we heard about before. Master barber Angelo Ruscetta prefers this affordable shavette instead of the Dovo just above. He uses this stainless-steel straight razor on all his clients. She says it feels like a traditional straight razor with a nice weight to keep your cuts clean.
The Strategist is designed to surface the most useful, expert recommendations for things to buy across the vast e-commerce landscape. Modern electric razors are great. According to the 20 experts we spoke with — including 14 professional barbers — a foil razor will provide a slightly closer shave than a rotary-style razor. But one limitation with foil razors is that they really only work well on short facial hair. When it comes to ease of use and efficiency, a rotary-style razor will likely be the best all-around option.
When former Strategist deputy editor Jason Chen tested out a selection of electric razors on his own face, an older version of this Norelco rotary was his top pick. Beightol uses the less-expensive version of the same razor as the one featured above.
He thinks the would be worth it if you have the budget, since it allows for a faster and more comfortable shave. The heads of the still pivot, just not as dynamically as those of the Garcia also uses this electric razor in his shop, and told us he recommends it to clients for home use. The ability to disinfect between uses, which helps prevent shaving-induced breakouts, is especially important to men who shave their heads, adds Ruscetta — so this would be a great choice for anyone looking for a razor that can shave their face and give them that cue-ball look.
Whitely told us that this slightly less expensive and older Braun model basically gives you the best of the above Braun Series 9 razor, but at a fraction of the price. Almost every single barber we spoke with mentioned this razor. It gives you a super-close shave without any razor burn.
It's powered by a rechargeable warming bar and has a flex-disc head that rotates with the contours of your face. Do you shave infrequently enough to mess with high-tech setups or subscription services? Or, do you shave so frequently that you often run out of replacement blades? In either case, it's wise to have some disposable razors at the ready. Maybe you prefer some scruff, or a full beard, but you still need to clean up the perimeter. And maybe the standard-fare cartridge blades just aren't cutting it given the way they obscure your mustache and beard border.
That's where these Trim vertical blades come in handy: They work a lot more like a straight-razor shave from the barber to help you shave clean lines where you need them.
We love a multitasking grooming product, and Philips Norelco's OneBlade trimmer-shaver can handle just about every hair-taming task you assign. Be it facial hair or body hair, it can trim, shave, or detail as you need, wet or dry, and has interchangeable blades for every use; it even comes with a skin guard for those more precious, sensitive spots. It's rechargeable and gives up to an hour of use with each full battery.
