Is this good for black men? Coarse, curly hair on face and head.

Laura, re your question, I am not sure. I like the razor as it has 3 different shaving screens and I use the closest shaving one. If I let my beard grow out more than a few days then I use the trimmer to cut it shorter then I use the razor part.I like the razor except for the switch problem. Maybe you can try it out and if happy with results, great. If the results are not good, be sure to return it within 30 days for Amazon return.

As a Afro American Male it works ok. In addition to the skull shaver I use Andies Edgers to cut the long hair and follow thru with the skull shaver to give the smooth finish. Keep a good supply of the replaceable blades and clean after each use. I normally replace the blades every 3-4 months. Hope this helps

My father has coarse (hard to cut) facial hair and this shaver worked for him for almost a year before he complained. He is retired military and likes a very close and clean shave. I wouldn't recommend this shaver for the head but my dad doesn't use it for that, so I can't say for sure.

I don't know if this product is for African-American hair. I purchased this at an Asian owned store. I would look into it online but I don't know why it would not work. I also use the shampoo and Minoxidil.

If you are african American I would not recommend the shampoo at all..Seriously it's so strong. It made my hair shed so much... I never use the shampoo anymore only the conditioner.However I used it for 4 months and my hair grew 4 inches! So it works :)

It does work on coarse hair. I'm Mexican n have dark coarse hair it pulls all the hair from my under arms.

Did you try this on your head? I am considering this or the black version of this. My barber used it to bald my head after a close trim and this was pretty quick and clean for the most part, I still got a few bumps here and there, mostly back of my head but I think it should be OK with a prep and aftershave cream follow up?

Yeah I think it could be good for that purpose. I have coarse, thick shoulder length hair and I think it's probably more suitable for people w really short, finer hair. Good luck!

no, I think this would be good for your hair type with the different heat settings.

YES!!! it works wonderfully on African American hair and the oil it comes with is great.make sure you put a little bit of oil on before you start flat ironing because it makes it last longer,and also reduce the fizz

I'm African American with really curly hair. It is a tight springy curl. This product does tame the curl all though i don't know the strength of it. But I do feel that this is not harsh on the hair like some of the ones specifically for very curly hair. Hope this helps!

This product works better for curly, wavy, coarse, unmanageable hair- remember this is from the Dominican Republic and most people over there has curly- coarse- thick - kinky hair and this product is formulated to work on that kind of hair. I would not recommend this product for people with straight hair unless is very thick and heavy.

Well some may beg to differ about my hair being African American. I am black with loose curls. It worked miracles on my hair! I only use the spray. I also put a lot if extra moisture in my hair at night. This product is a little drying . It is definitely worth going to the Aveda store for a sample.

I don't think this would be a good product for what you want. It makes your hair look textured and messy. It doesn't feel crunchy or hard though unless you use way too much.

Absolutely! My hair is down to my waist, medium thick. Its got a great elastic, stretches really well, and maintains its elasticity so if a man wears it, it would still fit a smaller head afterwards.

My own hair is curly but I am not Afro American. However, friends of mine who are use the products with really great results (they do not relax it and they have really nice springy, defined curls!) . It is the moisturizing nature of this product line that makes is perfect for your type hair (assuming it is coarse and curly since you asked). I would not hesitate to try it. You might want to try Fig for the most moisture and use it with Tea Tree (which everyone should use!). Start with the cleanser and the styling gel (any scent you like) and make the oils a close third you try. The oils (any scent you like) can be used the night before you cleanse your hair and if you have very coarse hair you can even mix a few drops in with your styling creme to add moisture and shine during the day. If you start off with that approach you will get the best results for your type hair. As you use the products you will learn what is best for in the line. Try it, I have a feeling you'll like it. My friends, hisband and I won't do without it now!

I don't think it would be good for your skin type. Mine is dry. It is excellent for your hair. Or feet!
