Shaving is a daily ritual for almost every man. Therefore, it is important to have a good quality device in your arsenal, the frequent use of which will not cause irritation on the skin, and the process itself will be painless and comfortable. The male half of the population treats the choice of this device with particular care, putting the purchase of an electric shaver on a par with other important personal hygiene products.

Peculiarities

Today on the market you can find two main types of electric shavers - rotary and mesh. Each of them has its own advantages and disadvantages, based on which, each individually selects a suitable model for himself. Every year the leading manufacturers of these devices are trying in every possible way to improve their product in order to increase demand for it.

Unlike the rough interaction of rotary shavers with the skin, electric foil shavers are more loyal to the skin of the face, therefore they are ideal for sensitive skin. No less important is the versatility of the device, where the first place will definitely go to mesh devices, which are often used in hairdressing.

Another significant advantage of such razors is their cost, which is an order of magnitude lower than rotary comrades.

The process of operation of electric razors consists in the reciprocating motion of the blade, which is covered from above by steel nets (from 2 to 4 units). Such a device can operate on a battery, and also a docking station with connectors for electronic devices can be included. The docking station not only allows you to charge the shaver, but also disinfects it. These razors do well with long stubble. This tool is lightweight and compact, so it is very easy to use. Among the many advantages, there are several disadvantages of mesh devices.

For example, do not drive too hard with a razor, as the mesh itself is quite fragile, which can lead to its deformation. Subsequently, you will have to change not only it, but also the knife block, and the parts on them are not much less than those needed to repair rotary razors. However, replacing the mesh can be very easy, without assistance. Another disadvantage is that you can easily injure yourself if you shave at the wrong angle. Another nuance is the low speed of the robots of such devices, which significantly increases the time spent on the shaving process. However, the newer models have powerful motors that allow the device to operate at high power levels.

How to shave properly?

Knowing how to grow facial hair will help you understand how to properly use an electric shaver. To begin with, you need to take into account the different frequency of hair growth on the cheeks and neck. If the hair on the cheeks is dense, and there are no special problems to get rid of them, then in the neck area the hairs are more delicate and grow close to the skin, and on top of that, they grow in sections and in different directions. Hence, we conclude that it is necessary to get rid of hair on the cheeks and neck in different ways.

It should also be noted that hair in these places in men grows more often than in other parts of the body, therefore, in most cases, regular shaving is required, and always good. And in this, manufacturers are in a hurry to please their customers, releasing improved models of electric shavers every year. The next point is that the razor should combine two opposite functions - to deal with stiff bristles and at the same time not injure or scratch delicate skin.

And finally, each person is individual in every sense, including the growth of hair on his face, so there is no universal scheme for effective shaving. Based on this, it is best to immediately, relying on the possibilities of your budget, purchase an electric shaver from the latest models. While shaving, the electric foil shaver is guided in a linear motion. It is necessary to move it over the face gently, without pressing, so as not to injure the skin. If you press hard on the mesh, the razor blades may scratch your face instead of cutting off the bristles.

For a more effective shave, first wash your face and neck with hot water to help steam out the stubble.... Then you need to wipe dry with a towel. To shave as smoothly as possible, you need the shaving head to be gentle but tight on your face.

Since our face consists of uneven surfaces, razors with floating heads that follow all the curves of the face and neck help ensure constant contact with the skin.
