Basically, does it work?

Ok, I won’t get into all the marketing hype. I’ll boil it down to the following from my tests:

• How is it different than just using a corded clipper (like the barber shop uses) for shaving “below the neck”? Well, first, I don’t like using the same clippers on my head as I use on the rest of my body. I do get what I call “my summer shave”, which entails shaving (with clippers) my back and shoulders, shortening my chest hair and maybe even arms and legs. It’s a very laborious process and not one I normally let everyone know about. However, my close friends and family know I need to do this or else look like a Wookie at the pool. Since the Bodygroom Pro is not plugged in, you can do your “work” in the shower without risk of electrocution.
• Is it robust enough? Corded clippers have wider cutting zones and more power than the Bodygroom, but my wife used the Bodygroom on my back and said it worked perfectly fine. It was actually easier for her since it was lighter and mobile (no cord in the way).
• What about “tender areas”? Ok, here’s where I’ll just say read the Amazon reviews. I’m not going there, but it is a part of manscaping that some are concerned about.
• Do I really need 3 cutters? So it has the adjustable trimmer on one end, and that’s great for the back (no guard), chest, arms, legs, etc. On the other end is a “buzzer” as I’ll call it surrounding a shaver (like one you would use on your face). The buzzers clip off hair easily and are narrow enough to not trap skin when trimming, then you simply roll it slightly to finish up with a close shave.

It really is an all-around Manscaping unit, and combined with the haircut kit and shaver, you’re covered for all your hair removal needs, unless you want to go the extra mile and get waxed (I haven’t gone that far yet. They don’t make enough wax) or lasered or whatever it’s called (does that even work?).

The key thing is to have someone who cares enough about you to help you where you can’t reach and isn’t disgusted by a caveman’s body. Thanks honey 🙂
