Question of the Day: Do You Prefer an Electric or Manual Shaver?
7:00AM Sean Fallon | Every other day it seems like a new manual razor is hitting the market advertising “the closest shave ever” by throwing in extra blades or lubed comfort strips. And let’s not forget that there are plenty of electric shavers out there if you have sensitive skin or you want to save a little time. As I was shaving my rugged man-stubble baby smooth this morning, I pondered this question: With all of the choices out there, what kind of shaver do you use? More »

US$150 Razor Comes with a Built-In Flashlight, Still Doesn’t Explain The Price
2:00AM Adam Frucci | OK, someone explain this to me: the new Gillette Fusion Chrome Collection Power Razor is a shaving implement with your standard retarded amount of blades, vibrating function and…a flashlight built in? But why? Who shaves in the dark? I’d say terrorists living in caves, but they clearly don’t shave, so that’s not it. Perhaps campers, but I don’t know many outdoorsmen who are going to spend US$150 on a razor to bring into the wilderness. I’m stumped. Guesses, commenters? [Product Page via Book of Joe] More »

Razorba War Hammer Improves Back Hair Shaving, Is Called the War Hammer
7:30AM Jason Chen | How thick of a hair sweater do you need to have to need something called a War Hammer to shave off your back hair? Pretty thick, which is why Razorba improved their previous release with this War Hammer version, which holds more types of razors (Gillette Fusions are the most notable) than the predecessor. It’s also twice the weight of the original, has a “Super Shock Solid Core” design, and a new “Hamr Grip II”. In the end though, it’s still a long piece of plastic designed to hold a bladed safety razor so you can shave your own back. If that’s too dangerous for you (as it might be for us, since we’re fairly uncoordinated) you can always try the electric-powered Mangroomer. [Razorba] More »

How to Turn Your Body Into a Hairless Wonderland With Gadgets: Part 2
4:01AM Jason Chen | In our first hairless wonderland feature, we took a look at how you could rid your entire body of hair using three simple gadgets. The Mangroomer, the Flowbee and the Philips Bodygroom allows you to make sure your back, head and crotchular regions are free of any unslightly plumage. But what about the most important part of your body; the part that everyone looks at during a conversation (no, not your jiblets—and the Bodygroom has that covered)? Yes, we’re talking about the face. And with the Braun Pulsonic or the Gillette Fusion Power Phantom, you can be sure your mug is as glossy as the top of Patrick Stewart’s head. More »

no!no! Shaver Gets Its Name Right, Not Much Else
3:15AM Gizmodo US Edition | The no!no! Shaver is a device that keeps your nether region looking smooth by using a “thermodynamic wire to transmit the heat to the hair”. In other words, it burns the hair clean off your man parts (or lady parts!). If that wasn’t enough, the no!no! is “characterized by (the) odor” of sweet, sweet burning hair. This sounds like hell, and that’s coming from someone who is no stranger to self-inflicted grooming torture. Available for $250 at Sephora, it comes with free shipping. [product page via BBG] More »

Art of Shaving Fusion Chrome Collection Power Razor Has a Tiny Headlight
12:45AM Charlie White | If you can’t stand the thought of a buzzing, whining electric contraption grinding away at your face every morning, maybe this new Art of Shaving Fusion Chrome Collection Power Razor with a tiny spotlight is just the face-scraping utensil you’ve been looking for. The luxury razor company teamed up with blademaker Gillette for this handle that fits the company’s cartridge razor blades, and its heavy chrome and resin construction gives it a hefty high-quality feel. But this blade-shaving routine seems like a lot of trouble. Let’s talk blade vs. electric. More »
