Who has what? How much did you pay and are they any good?


Seen some in Boots which are £15 and come with everything i would imagine you need. I already have an electric razor, so purely need it for trimming. The cheapest(without comprimising on quality)/takes up less space the better.

Whatever you get, make sure the length guides go right around the tip of the blade or you'll end up trimming parts shorter than the rest.

Babyliss was the one i saw in boots, seems better value than the £40 as i wont use it that much.

You get length guards (plastic bits) that clip over the blade so you can get different lengths - like when you go the hairdressers and can get a number 1, 2, 3+

Some of the guards just go to the ends of the blades, and others wrap over the tip of the blade.

This is a pic with the blade and a length guard thing on it, you want it a bit like that where it goes past/wrap over the tip of the blade!

Im temted to get one soon. Mine doesnt grow too long at the moment (only 20) and i only have to shave twice a week really. But if i let it get long (takes over a week) it fooking kills to shave as my razor just pulls at the hair as its too long!
