good for bikini area? does it cut/nick skin?

It is great on legs. It is rather awkward for other areas as the razor head is rectangular. The only other "con" is that the battery does not seem to stay charged for more than 2-3 days. The razor runs, but the motor sounds slower on day three that it did right after being charged all night. (the directions say it should have a 20 minute running time, but I don't know about that) I hope this is helpful.

It's not the greatest at getting close to the root for the bikini area (however it does get better there after using it a while because the hair gets used to it). However, it has never cut me in any way. It has never given me razor burn either. I love it!

There is a precision trimmer that slides out the rear similar to those on previous Norelco models for sideburns, nose hairs, etc. if that is what you mean by a body groomer.It is noisier than on my previous shavers, but works very well.

Completely does. Could be a little bit painful in the first time using it, but you'll get used to it. The reason I bought it is to use it on unwanted hair on the upper portion of cheeks and some other spots around the face

Yes, I have used it for chin and lip areas. Just make sure you pull the skin tight to help.

Scarlett, I use it on these areas, but you really have to hold the skin taut. It can can really pull your skin, but you don't have to use it as often as a shaver. Good luck!

I don't use it on the jewels, just the rest of the body, I use a 5 blade disposable razor instead for them. Area around is performed w/ the shaver though. If you are nicking yourself a lot it might be time to buy new foil blades.

Very lightweight. Should work for trimming, but is not made for shaving down. I use it on paws and it would work on faces, but that's as far as it goes.

I tried it on my leg and it hurt like hell (using the epilator head). I think that bikini area might hurt even more, I have used it with the regular razor headpiece and it worked like a regular electric shaver, I would not recommend the epilator....unless you have a high pain threshold (apparently I do not in this case).

This works great around the bikini line (outside the panty/bikini line), but if you want to use it further inside on the intimate areas, you have to make sure you trim the hair down to about a 1/4" first. Less pain that way. Hope that helps!

Yes. I had a lot of issues with razor burn and bumps. I actually have two of these. A small for travel and a large for home. I won't be going back to Gillette style anytime soon.

I have used all models. This one is the least likely to nick or chaffe the skin due to the flexible head. If you pull the skin taut while shaving the private areas it's more likely to pull or nick the skin. Of course their is no perfect way, I've just learned from lots of nicking myself. Staying clean with a few nicks still beats the alternative.

This is perfect for feet and faces! When the blade becomes dull it will nick. Its doesn't get hot enough to burn. I am a full time groomer and use it dailey.

Shelly, I don't know that for sure. I would think it would clog up. If you are a female and trying to use it as a bikini cut I can recommend much better ones for that purpose, sold here on Amazon.

I haven't tried that and wouldn't, in my case, as the hair in those areas tends to be coarser in most males (so I hear..Lol..) and I don't think this razor is geared for that. I use a trimmer/clipper for that ("Norelco MultiGroom") and that works fine, but yes, you do have to be careful or u can cut/nick your "boys"..Lol..

Yes! It's a great product. Charge lasts forever. Cuts very close without cutting ur skin.

Yes Judy it does! It's a very effective personal shaver. I use it for that area as well as "side burns."

I never tried it on the bikini area, but if the hair is long I would think it would hurt.
