How would this razor work for black men

I'm Caucasian, but I'll describe what I know. My chin and jaw line have very coarse hair, usually feels like sandpaper in 4-6 hours after shaving. The shaver plows through and feels 2nd only to a blade shave. My neck hair has a nasty curl to it. I get ingrown hairs frequently. The shaver takes a bit of work on the neck and some patience but does great there too. If this is similar to your concerns, I'll offer my routine...shave the neck, if anything remains use the trimmer to catch stray hairs and shave it again. Works like a charm. Hope this helps.

I dont really think race would be an issue since its facial hair. My boyfriend is white and he loves it. Im sure you'll love it to!

I'm afraid your husband may have to look and tell you. this is my 1st razor of this kind. grew up on multi blade razor's. I can tell you that it has great weight. just heavy enough you don't have to bear down. I'm using it with gillette 7'o'clock double edge refills and it shaves great. no referral at all.

Yes, it works just fine to shave with this razor, while it is plugged in. My husband uses it that way too.

Sorry, I do not know. I use the old school safety razor. Hopefully someone else can answer that question for you.

What I've learned is that every African American beard is NOT the same. You have to give it a shot yourself to determine what's best for YOU and almost have to ignore everyone who tells you what does and doesn't work. Having said that, although I think the Magic Shave powder works best for me, it's very inconvenient. The Wahl shaver is the best runner up that I've found and have been using it for over a year. This is the first time I'm not even considering an alternative. If you give it a shot, you should wait after 2 weeks before deciding if it works because it takes about that long for your hair to adapt. AND I also have to use a trimmer prior to shaving because the shaver only works on micro short hairs. I'm in my 40's and only recently found something that works best for me so the best of luck to you.

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.

Absolutely!! A few years past I purchased my then 16 year old son a Remington triple-head razor and while it was so so, this razor is so much more gentle to the face. I just bought this version for me. I love it so much that I'm not buying one for my now 18 year old son to replace his Remington model I bought him just 2 years ago. Besides for fifty bucks it's a pretty fair price. Young men would do well to start out with this version of razor..

I am brown-skinned and I find this shaver admirable -- especially if your package includes an extra head that is pricey (I did). I do not know of African-Americans have thicker hair!

I don't think so. Don't think it'd be a very close shave; not what it's designed to do. Nothing beats a razor. Best of luck!

It gives a close shave but not better than the multiple blade razors. It takes 2-3 minutes longer perhaps because it takes time to feel comfortable using the single edge. I am satisfied with the shave and especially with the cost savings.

I use it on my chest, legs and underarms as well. It works really well and a lot quicker than any of my other shavers. The blade is HUGE!

It works great on the private areas, no nicks but a nice close shave. one of the best shavers I've ever had for shaving any area of the body. works good on men or women as mine has been used by both.

Not being black, it's hard to say. I do have a somewhat curly beard though - not kinky. It seems to hook and pull up the hair better than any shaver I've ever had. I think that's why it makes my skin slightly pink after the shave. There is no discomfort from that though. So, guessing, I would say it's better than most.

Hi,The things that must be determined for this razor is your beard. My beard is of medium texture, not heavy, not light. I have found this razor to be the right combination for me. I also find it works best when my beard is short. It seems to have a bit of difficult with longer hairs. I have had this razor for over a year and a half and am very pleased with it performance.Hope this helps.
