Title: 5 in 1 balding shaver and personal groomer
Post by: Tyler on July 18, 2019, 03:52:20 PM
Has anyone used one of these 5 in 1 balding shavers and personal groomers? They have decent reviews on Amazon, but I'm not sure how they would actually perform.

Here's a link to the Amazon posting - https://amzn.to/32srJie

No , but I have the Pit Bull Gold , and as a head shave , find it does a good job . Problem of durability is another story.

Love to know more. And I wonder the longevity of the cutters and cost to replace 'em. That's prob the rub.

Just got it, absolutely love it !!

No, it's not a BBS shave, but it's a ton closer than my Wahl  Balding clipper, and much easier to use.

It gets really, really close, barely a fine grade sandpaper feel, for far less work & time than a regular razor.

I still prefer the BBS shave of my razor, but honestly only do that on weekends when I have more time.

Given the time, and money savings, (no creams, razor blades, etc), I'm more than happy with it.

Heck for about 30 bucks, really nothing for you to lose.

Oh, and visually you look totally BBS bald... even though you aren't quite BBS to the touch.

Interesting, it sounds about the same as my Pit BullGold.. But the price differential is a bit. I paid about $100 . I use mine mainly in the winter, that wet shave At that time not my thing. Thanks for the info.

I just got mine. 49.99 on Amazon. Its smaller than Pitbull brand. But that makes it easier to use. Its fast and efficient. I use in a circular motion going over the same area a couple times. So far just using it dry. It is very close to razor shave smooth I have to say. Thats with a number of passes. Stop sooner and it is like very fine sandpaper, which is fine sometimes but I like it smoother. This shaver will do that with multiple passes. It is super quiet so you could use it at the gym or in a bathroom at work. Holds a charge over many uses. So far I love it and would recommend it. Not tried any other attachments yet.
