I am a amazingly hirsute homo . All that hair needs the correct tools to tame , dress and shaving . The three devices up to the job ? TheMangroomer , thePhilips Bodygroom , and the Flowbee have been around for a while and are groovy separately , but this is the first time that we ’ve seen their full power unleashed together . Here ’s how they stood up .
Let ’s start from the head down . First , the Flowbee . Even if you have n’t had the pleasure of having this used upon you — that is the correct verbal description of being Flowbeed — you probably fancy this on tardy - night television set ads . If you ’re not familiar , the Flowbee is a combining vacuity clean and ( point ) whisker trimmer . Both plug into the wall ( you’re able to prefer to use your own vacuum and preserve a few dollar on the order ) and work together to at the same time cut and houseclean up the mess .
It ’s pretty unwieldy if you ’re doing trimming yourself , so your right wager is to get someone to aid . There are different sized spacer attachments so you may get a variation of duration , but the shortest you may get is probably a # 2 or a # 3 ( in even trimmer term ) . In the ending , the only time you ’d really use this is if your kid does n’t give care about how he — or help me Jeebus , she — seem or if you ’re the last piece on Earth and there are no barbers , hairstylist or women of any form around . But you do save money over the foresighted ravel .

Then there ’s the Mangroomer . It reckon like a cross between a backscratcher , a nunchuck , and an electric child . It allows you to reach behind your back ( either overhand or sideways ) and plane off the hair . In hypothesis , it ’s great . In practice , you want someone else to help .
The performance of the razor is expectant . It gets all your hair off in one or two strokes if you swipe flawlessly and equally , which means you ’ll actually need someone behind you to direct — or even take over . Doing it yourself is alright ( and is the point of the widget ) , but without straining yourself with two mirror it ’s toilsome to check that you ’ve gotten your entire back .
As for comfort , well , the blade ’s not really protect , which meant I had redness and some temper after I was done , but cleared up after a good nighttime ’s sleep .

Last , and most significantly , the Bodygroom . Philips mart this electric shaver as a machine that gets rid of all hair below the neck opening . This intend your chest , your arms , your pit , your stomach , your legs , your privates and even your ass crevasse can be fuzz free . We only tested this on four of those seven places — stop if you hazard which — and found it to be a great shave .
It ’s basically a fancy byssus trimming capacitor with a fancy shaving guard , which means you may stay put far enough away from your goods to keep from hurt yourself and fold enough to give you the novelty you ’re count for . But like shavers , you ’ll have some itch afterwards . However , it ’s the most bother - free way to get hair’s-breadth out of your venereal region and into wherever you keep excess hair .
