I'm looking for a close shave that razors give but without the bumps and in-grown hairs. Does this do the trick?

I shave with the Styliner II and they cut close without the bumps from in-grown hairs. Just keep them oiled and they should perform right out of the box.

This won't do that. I have the same problem. I trim and edge with the Andis. It cuts close, but not razor close. For the close shave, I have a Panasonic ES-LA63 Wet/Dry.

This will definitely give you a close shave but not like a razor will. But you can finish it up with the wahl 5 star shaver for the closes shave ever without the bumps and ingrown hairs.

Well friend they get really close if you zero gap them, and give in my opinion a good shave but nothing gets a close as a razor can, hopes this helps

If you're looking for a close shave on your face then I would recommend the Wahl 8061 5-Star Series Rechargeable Shaver Shaper. It's awesome! I use it daily on my face and it doesn't give me any bumps or in-grown hairs. I actually prefer it over using a traditional razor for shaving. The Andis Styliner trimmer won't give you a close shave on your face at all in comparison to the Wahl Shaver Shaper. And I would say the same about the aforementioned products if you're going to use them for cutting your hair too. The Styliner will cut your hair very short to the point where you will just see stubble, but the Wahl Shaver Shaper will leave your scalp smooth and bald just as a razor would (some people say it even cuts closer than a razor). If you opt for the Wahl Shaver, you don't really need to apply that much pressure when using it on your face like a typical electric shaver. It works just fine with little/moderate pressure. It's a very reliable shaver and requires very little maintenance. Every so often you just need to pop off the top portion and brush out all the hairs on the blade and that's it. Once the foil on the top portion starts to wear out (which you will be able to see visibly, this takes a long time by the way) you can just order the replacement foil/blade and pop that right on and you're good to go. I hope this answered your question. If you're looking for something to use for shaving your face you won't be disappointed with the Wahl Shaver. I think it's the best shaver that's available and it's the only one that I use.

I have really rough facial hair, and I have to say NO to this shaver. It does not shave close and you will always have a rough feeling. The reason may guys don't have bumps is because the razor does not shave close. Great for us, but hated by the women. My woman likes me to have a very smooth face, but you won't get it with this shaver.

no as it is a trimmer, not a razor. I have a razor and trimmer and use them based on what I need to do.

I use this shaver twice a week to shave as close as possible, and I do not get cut. It's not a fully clean shave like a razor blade, but it gets close to it.

Yes, it does give a clean shave - maybe not quite like 'just like razors' but close. Probably depends to some extent how heavy your beard is to start with. Certainly better than my old Braun.

Far closer than an electric razor. I use this razor twice a week and an electric other days, you'll be amazed at how close a shave you'll get.

This is a trimmer, and not a razor, so don't expect close shaves! Depending on the length that you cut your hair, you may experience some itchiness. Take your time down there!

I bought the razor for my husband as we as extra blades and it took him a while before he used it. Finely he watched a video on YouTube that showed him how. You have to do several passes for a close shave but there are less nicks and cuts, and no razor burn. They also suggest that you use a shaving soap instead of a cream. It makes the blades last longer. Good luck with it and I hope this helped you out a little.

Yes, the attachments are for trimming. Use no attachments for a close smooth shave.

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.

It's very close,probably the closest you can get to clean shave without using a razor but is not quite as close as a razor

YEs. Its definitely better than non- pivot head one. But still, you don't get super - clean shave in difficult areas such as chin, around neck. it leaves some hair. SO I have to use normal razor second time. But 2nd time its really cakewalk as skin gets really smoother because of shaver. It takes hardly 1 min for 2nd round. let me know in case of more doubts.

If you want a very close shave, yes. If you want to trim your chest, it doesn't have a guard.

No shaving bumps. Have been using this portable razor for over three years now.

Absolutely. And for an electric shaver it can give you a pretty close shave once you've figured out how to use it. Keep the batteries fresh and gently press it straight down as you shave for the closest shave. Great for bikini line and armpits, as well. I haven't had an ingrown hair since I started using it.

Not necessarily fast in comparison to a full size Braun. But, it will give a good close shave, just takes a little longer, even on the neck - it'scomfortable, no rash.

It is very moisturizing which may help to get a close shave without causing ingrown hairs or acne. It is probably dependent on one's sensitivity to its ingredients. It does seem to limit irritation from shaving by softening skin.
