Does this razor help with ingrown hairs?

Hi Joseph, thanks for your question. It is our opinion that all safety razors provoke less ingrown hairs. As someone once put it - 'Imagine peeling a potato: one blade gets the top layer off. What if your potato peeler had two blades? As the second blade peels a little more after the first, you're now wasting good food! What if your potato peeler had - no joke - six blades? - Now imagine that potato is your face." We feel like our razor, when used with good accessories and shaving techniques, will help with ingrown hairs.

Buy only using a single blade it cuts the occurrence of them to almost never.

It is an excellent razor. You might want to look at somme Youtube videos on wet shaving. It takes longer than the Gillette 5 blade razors, but done right you will not have ingrown hairs, and will get a close shave. The most important factor is using a good shaving soap - I use a brush and bowl to work up a good lather, and I use Derby blades which are not too sharp but work well. You might buy a sampler pack from Amazon and find which blades work for you. Don't be put off by the information. I will never go back to Gillette/Shick, etc razors. 100 blades costs me $10, shaving soap is cheap and I get a great shave each morning with a small cut a rarity. It is an excellent razor.

There won't be any razor stubble because this product is removing the hair from the root. It's basically a bunch of tweezers, uncomfortable but you get great results.

I dont know about removing ingrown hair spots. But what it does do for me is reduces the amount of ingrown hairs I would normally get. I now get none. However before I would have almost a rash looking appearance a day or so after shaving. Not when I use this product immediately after shaving I apply it with a cotton ball to the area that is usually affected by ingrown hairs or razor burn. With this I no longer worry about it at all. I use it every time I shave. If I miss it for some reason or forget I regret it immediately the next day. So does it remove spots Im sure it would in time, but for me it more so prevents from getting them in the first place. I dont know about removing ingrown hair spots.

Yes it does. I don't think it's the best positioned one they've ever made, but it works very well. The design is only an issue of you're trying to trim just above the ears. Additionally I will add that the charge this battery holds is awesome. I've been using nothing but Braun electric razors for 25 or so years and this one is stellar.

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

All epilators can cause ingrown hairs. This one is less likely to do so because of the ceramic tweezer head, which lessens the chance of the hairs breaking off over a metal tweezer head. You can minimize the risk of ingrown hairs by soaking in the bath before hand and drying off thoroughly. Also you should exfoliate before epilating and every day in between the next time you epilate.

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.

No, just let it glide over your whiskers, assuming of course you insert a sharp blade in the razor before you start to shave

This is an electric razor that can be used wet or dry. It is not an epilator and will not remove hair at the root.

No, it's not a razor, but an electric *shaver*, so it does not give you nearly the same smooth legs a razor blade would. I have dark brown hair and while I can feel a bit of stubble, there is nothing visible. The longer you use this shaver, the softer the stubble gets. After about a month you'll notice a difference as your hair gets used to being shaven this way. My legs feel pretty nice after using it.. and my husband likes it, so no complaints from me!

I'm sorry, I don't use it as a razor. I use the attachments to trim my beard and also my hair.

depends. I would guess yes. I actually use it to clean up all the way to my hairline as well as my shoulders. I take the blade thing out when I do it so it's easier to maneuver. be careful, it can scrape you, but it's still better than all the ingrown hairs and bumps from normal razors.

I've not had problems with ingrown hair. I've had trouble with it with other devices but not with the Braun.

Not at all. In fact, this will help alleviate the problem as compared with those triple blade cartridges. The key for curly beards prone to ingrown hair is regular shaving. However, I am often lazy and go days without shaving and have no problems, whereas I was certain to have multiple ingrown hairs with the Mach 3 and similar cartridges unless I shaved at least every other day.

I have fewer ingrown hairs than before use. I should use this everyday and I don't. But it does lightly slough off the skin which has made my ingrown hairs better. If I used this religiously everyday, I believe I would not have I grown hairs. It does help with razor burn which I get easily. I have tried other products, this works best for me.

Great question. My husband uses this after shaving. He says it burns like no other BUT it does keep ingrown hairs from occurring as frequently. I shave my "lady bits" almost daily and I use this and vitamin E oil. It has helped keep razor burn and ingrown hairs to a minimum but no, not 100% but it's way better than it was for both of us. I also highly recommend exfoliating before and after shaving. I hope I've helped.
