Far exceeded my expectations. Comfortable grip, well balanced, easy to clean and gives a nice clean shave. Also, the battery lasts for many shaves before requiring a recharge.
The best head shaver I have used in my bald journey. This thing was made for it. There is a bit of a learning curve as to when you're done as it can feel like it is still cutting, and it doesn't get it as close to the wood as a bare razor. That said, for the convenience and the time saved, and being able to get it done in a five minute buzz a day while the coffee is brewing, it's well worth it. Very happy with this purchase.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great razor for bald heads. Leaves a little to be desired for the face. Only needs a little shave cream. I would not use it dry personally. I was forced to buy an electric razor due to cancer diagnosis. I’ve been a life long manual razor user but now a manual razor causes too much irritation. This razor in wet mode fixes that. Hard to get around my goatee. I still need a razor or trimmer for accuracy. With my hair growth a fresh shave with this razor is equal to 12 hours after using a manual razor. Its not quite as close of a shave but definitely acceptable.
I was in need of a new shaver for my head and after reading comparisons of the various head shavers and reviews of the Philips head shaver I decided to give it a try. After a month of twice a week use I am very happy with my purchase of the Philips 9000 head shaver. It takes me a similar amount of time as my previous shaver but is much less irritating on my scalp. I wasn’t sure I would like the shave as as much as I liked the length my old shaver left my hair, but I have gotten used to the shorter shave and now shave twice a week (rather than once a week) to keep it shorter. The shaver fits comfortably in my hand whether holding the base or behind the clipper head and it’s easy to reach all areas of my head and keep the shaver in contact with my scalp. The clean up is a breeze under running water. Charging is quick and the indicator lets me know when to plug into recharge. Got a good deal on Prime Day that made it worth buying the 9000. All in all very happy with my purchase.
