Can I Shave Body Hair with Norelco PowerTouch or Should Use Norelco BodyGroom Pro Instead

May 102012
 

Once in a while this site gets strange query through Google search about the uses of electric shavers. One particular kind of query that it got went something like this: Can I shave body hair with Norelco PowerTouch? You can replace this particular shaver with Norelco SensoTouch 3D, Noreclo Vacuum Beard Trimmer or Norelco 8020x yet  you get the same idea. Now, the answer to this kind of question is obvious. But forsaking the obvious, let’s deal straight on with this harmless query and try to reason out why it is possible and at the same time not right to do so.

The simple, innocent answer to this question, of course, is a big ‘yes.’ These electric shavers serve the purpose of cutting hair and using it where hair grows is possible.

There is only one catch though for this answer. You must remember that these type of electric shavers are manufactured and designed for cutting hair on your face. Yes, it can be used to trim and cut hairs in your chest, legs, buttocks, groin and on any part of your body. But you cannot take away the fact that these shavers are designed for your facial hair. So expect that you will get some discomfort like irritation and cuts – if not serious injury if you use it on your sensitive body parts.

The simple answer to this kind of question is likening electric shavers to scissors. There are different kinds of scissors that serve to cut different materials. There are scissors for paper; there are scissors for cutting hairs; and there are scissors to cut thin sheet of metals. Using them for their particular purpose gets the job done right. And with electric shavers the reasoning is the same.

Hope this gets the question answered. If you want a shaver for your body hair, then probably you can just get Norelco BodyGroom Pro. (Click here for more information about Norelco BodyGroom Pro.)

Mar 272012
 

Philips Norelco released its latest generation of electric shavers – the PowerTouch with aquatec technology. The first patented electric shaver created by Col. Jacob Schick and generations of succeeding electric razors were all meant and designed for dry shaving. Only recently there have been electric shavers that can both serve wet and dry shaving; but grooming products like these were mediocre if not dissatisfying in result. Philips Norelco just successfully filled in the void when it released this product.

It has the dual precision shaving technology that enables the shaver to deal with both long and short facial hairs. On the other hand, the Super Lift&Cut blade system makes for a close, neat shave. Just these two shaving technologies are enough to call Norelco PowerTouch with aquatic perfect for a good, excellent morning shave.

Selling Point

There is a high demand for an electric shaver that can be used for wet and dry shaving. Philips Norelco PowerTouch just addresses this with its aquatec technology. If you are the type who uses cream or gel to minimize skin irritation, then this is not an issue with PowerTouch with aquatec. This product fits your preferred procedure.

Modestly Priced but Fully Packed
