    Buying a Shaver

    So Im thinking about buying this shaver but Im not sure whether it can also be used on my non-facial hair (underarm, chest, etc)

    http://www.braun.com/us/series-shavers/series-3.html

    I have tried searching the net and reading reviews but I haven't found anything that relates to it being used on non-facial hair

    Anyone know if this would be suitable to use on non-facial hair?

    P.S. Thought posting in this section would provide me the best feedback, thanks

    The Philips Norelco Ultimate Body Groomer works well for me. It is waterproof and meant to go in the shower. No skin irritation for me. And they sell replacement heads separately.

    Also use the Philips Norelco Ultimate Body Groomer. Like DrBigSquat, I've never had a problem with skin irritation.

    I use one of these for grooming. The LiIon battery is a revelation. Hours and hours of run time, fast charging, no power loss, battery not useless after 6 months of use. Dunno why every shaver isn't using this battery type.

    Just looked it up, first one I saw for the nerelco was 12.00 for the replacement blade at KMart. They last me about 9-12 months. Do it in the shower and no one will flip out about the body hair all over the place...lol

    Same here with the body groomer.
    2012 was a year of on and off training due to miss-hap's. I had broken ribs,pulled something under my shoulder blade. Then had a total hip replacement. Got soft around the edges. Now time for a comeback. 1st year in. So far things are going great!!
    April 11th 2014 double bypass surgery. So another set back grrrrrr.

    If The Bar Ain't Bending... You're Just Pretending.

    There is no pill or shake. That can replace hard work.
