It depends on how regularly you use it, but on average it’s recommended that you change your blades every months. If you have thicker hair and shave more often, you might need to bring this timeline forward a tad. Featuring a pivoting head and built-in sensor, which adapts the power according to your beard density, this shaver allows for a close-contact shave without causing any sensitivity.

The LCD screen shows you all the information you need to know, such as how much juice it’s got left, and there are a number of attachments that are designed to give you the ultimate close shave. You can select from three different shave settings, while sensors pick up on your beard density and adjust the power accordingly. Our testers noted how soft and gentle it was on their skin, providing a smooth finish – some even comparing it to feeling like a wet shave. It features an automated cleaning unit too, so it’s always ready to use when you need it. Testers were impressed with how well this luxe shaver performed on longer stubble, particularly on those hard-to-reach areas around the jawline.
They noted how close and smooth the shave was, as well as how well each manoeuvred around the jawline and chin area. They also assessed how easy each one was to set up and use, and if they caused any skin irritation. The difference is oscillating blades move rapidly in a back and forth motion, unlike rotary blades which spin. The dual foil shaver cuts hairs growing in all directions, on wet or dry skin. More expensive electric shavers can come with fully fledged cleaning stations, which clean, dry and even lubricate your razor’s blades. Even if you do have one of these, you’ll still want to replace the cleaning cartridges, as well as the blades or foil heads because they will dull the more they’re used.
