How rough is this razor on your skin? Does it pull on it & leave it red & raw? Does it cut your skin? Thanks

No it does not pull on your skin or leave it red and raw or cut. The blades although sharp have small teeth and glide easily as it has a wide head of about 2 inches wide, see the photo. Not much different to a face electric razor probably smoother because I never feel like you need to put aftershave or balm on to put out the fire. I usually jump in the shower after shaving to clean the shaven hairs away. Never had a problem. Hope this helps.

It can leave red marks if you go too deep. But it is not as bad as other trimmers I have used in the past. I would give it a solid B on sensitivity.

Nope. It's not a shaver, it's a very close trimmer. I own one and reviewed it above. It gets really really close, but a razor would get closer and in some of the areas this is designed for, that would you're likely to end up bloody if you're not extremely careful.

I am not really sure to the correct answer of the RPM's. I will say that I am very dissapointed with this razor! It cuts poorly, requiring several passes over the same area before it is shaven. Some areas of my face it completely cannot cut. I find myself having to go over my face with a regular blade razor to get a clean close shave. I did however, get the razor at a very good price, which causes me to wonder if I got a imitation knockoff, or a referbished model.

Very gentle on sensitive skin.Due to the fact the blades are very sharp,and cut nicely without having to go over the same area too many times;along with the 3 "floating heads" helps stop skin irritation.Great razor for the price.....I am enjoying mine,and I have sensitive skin.

Yes, I do. It took a little while to get used to, but it fits my small hand (ring finger size 4) really good. I highly recommend it! Start slow and don't push down when pulling it up. Just guide the razor with a light hand and you'll have the smoothest legs you've ever had!

Can you tell me how this shaver performs? It is a bit pricey, and there are only two reviews on Amazon's product page, one not even by the user, but by his wife. How does it do getting the hairs on the neck? I often suffer from razor burn on my neck, and also am getting tired of having to rotate my 6 yold Norelco (battery is also dying) in circular patterns several times over the same spots to get a close shave..

I dont have anything to compare it to, but this is my first, and I find it almost hard to cut myself. You almost have to try to get a nick. The shave is closer than anything else ive ever tried as well. I bought this razor because people on several forums said it was less aggressive than a lot of other razors and is good to learn on, but with how good the shave is, I dont see any reason I would ever switch to anything else.

No, not like a true razor. I think it can get very close but not skin smooth. It is a great clipper. I highly recommend it.

I switched to this from a Braun 5-Series. The Panasonic ES-LA63 is an absolute gem compared to the Braun. I NEVER had a shave with the Braun that didn't pull my hairs. Very painful. And if you haven't tried it yet, use the LA63 in the shower: Super close shaves, zero irritation! And your face will be as smooth as a baby's bottom.

Which end are you using that you are able to nick yourself? Trim all the hair down to a reasonable length with the clipper end and then use the razor end to take all the hair off. Take your time in a well lit area and to not try to hack at the hair. I find that pulling the skin taut prevents any close calls. It may also help to have someone assist you by using the razor and you just direct. If the blade needs replacing it will pull the hair and cause irritation. I have never managed to nick myself with this though like I have with standard hair clippers.

this is really the best razor i have ever purchased! I would never go back to safety razors. Blades last about 5 weeks.

Every one has different types of skin. So my recommendation would be Astra or Personna... They both last me 3-4 good shaves a piece. Feather razors are good but are really sharp. I use all 3..can't go wrong with those

I have used magic shave on my face and neck for decades! NEVER use a razor on a woman's face. That is the WORST thing you can do. Magic shave is wonderful and leaves my skin smooth and hairless, it lasts for about a week to 10 days. I have used the powder and the cream in the tube. I highly recommend this for women.

My experience is that it does not work like a razor. In fact, I didn't have much luck with it at all. It would work well for a very smooth surface like your face, but I was hoping to use it for my bikini line, and it didn't shave close enough to be used for rougher skin surfaces. Plus the shaving head is very small, only a fraction of the size of a razor. I used it for about two minutes and ended up throwing it away.

I found that it does not shave smoothly. It does leave a stubble and irritates your skin if you continue trying to get a smoother shave.
