The daily shave can be a time-consuming routine that, if done incorrectly, leads to skin irritation, cuts, and ingrown hairs. An electric shaver offers a practical and often more skin-friendly alternative to the classic wet shave. However, the market is vast, and the selection of models with different technologies—from rotary to foil shavers, with or without a cleaning station—can be overwhelming.
This guide is designed to provide you with objective information and clear guidance. As your Joybuy Product Recommendation Officer, I have analysed the essential features and functions of various devices to help you find an electric shaver that fits your individual needs, whether for daily beard care, sensitive skin, or a close head shave.
Before you make a decision, it's helpful to understand the basic technologies and features. Here are some key points that can influence your choice.
The choice between a rotary and a foil shaver largely depends on your beard growth and skin sensitivity.
A Wet & Dry shaver offers maximum flexibility. You can use it for a quick dry shave when time is short, or for a more comfortable wet shave with shaving foam or gel in the shower. Using foam can reduce friction and is therefore often a great option for sensitive skin types. Look for the 100% waterproof label to ensure the device is fully washable and suitable for use in a wet environment.
A shaver with a cleaning station significantly enhances convenience and hygiene. At the touch of a button, the shaver is automatically cleaned, dried, charged, and often lubricated as well. This ensures the device delivers optimal performance every day and extends the lifespan of the shaving components. However, keep in mind that such a station requires extra space in the bathroom and involves recurring costs for cleaning cartridges.
Based on the criteria above, we have compiled a selection of models that cover different needs—from a specialised device for head shaving to a powerful all-rounder for beards.
PHILIPS Head Shaver Pro Series 7000 Electric Head Shaver
What makes it stand out: The Philips Head Shaver Pro Series 7000 is specifically designed as a head shaver. Its most prominent feature is the flexible 360-degree shaving head, which precisely adapts to the contours of the head and captures hair even in hard-to-reach areas without applying strong pressure. The 36 ComfortCut blades made of stainless steel cut hair just above the skin's surface for a smooth result. As a Wet & Dry shaver, it can be used flexibly in the shower or for a dry shave.

1. How often should you replace the shaving head of an electric shaver? Most manufacturers, including Braun and Philips, recommend replacing the shaving parts every 18 to 24 months. The exact lifespan depends on the frequency of use and beard type. Regular replacement is important to ensure a consistently close and hygienic shave.
2. Is an electric shaver better for sensitive skin than a wet shave? This varies from person to person. Electric shavers can reduce the risk of cuts and nicks, as the blades are not in direct contact with the skin. Models specifically designed as a shaver for sensitive skin, with flexible shaving heads, minimise pressure and help prevent irritation. A Wet & Dry shaver used with shaving foam can further enhance comfort.
3. Can you shave your head with a regular beard shaver? While it is technically possible, it's not the ideal solution. A dedicated head shaver has an ergonomic design and shaving heads specifically developed for the contours of the scalp. This allows for a safer, faster, and more even shave than with a conventional beard shaver.
