If you buy a really suitable model and adapt a little to working with it, you can get a perfectly smooth skin or a neatly trimmed and neat beard. When choosing a device, you need to pay attention to the following performance characteristics.

Hair length range

Each machine for haircuts and shaving has a certain range of possible length of hair, which will remain after the procedure. The lower limit of the length of the hair on some machines is only 0.4 mm. The upper limit reaches approximately 18-20 mm. Of course, everything depends on the model of the device and its cost.

Device power

Owners of such a beard will find it difficult to achieve an ideally shaved chin with a low-power machine. This parameter can be found in the technical documents attached to the device. Do not rely on the high cost and variety of additional functions, such a machine for shaving hair can have a small capacity.

Shaving heads

All razors can be divided into two categories - with a rotary or grid system. The device with a rotary system has a head with several disks placed on it. They are equipped with knives, which by means of vibrating movements remove hairs even with uneven and stiff bristles. The downside of this system is the negative effect of the knives on the surface being treated. Men with sensitive skin such a shaving machine is not suitable. A more comfortable shave will be provided by a model with a head covered with a fine mesh. It is necessary to capture hair and protect the skin from cuts. Under the net are the knives themselves, which cut the hairs. Regardless of which system is selected, you need to pay attention to the head mount. On sale there are razors with its unique design and a certain angle of inclination, which allows to achieve a perfectly clean shave. Most accurately repeats all the curves of the face of a machine with a floating head. This model will provide a comfortable shave and the best result. The number of heads also has a value. In razors with a rotary system, the optimal number of them is three pieces, that is, three disks. If a shaving machine with a grid system is used, the head can be either one or two, with a trimmer placed between them. He cuts off those hairs that could not remove the knives located under the first grid.

Waterproof housing

There are certain models of shaving machines, equipped with a water resistant casing. This means that the blade can easily be cleaned by placing it under a stream of water. Manufacturers also offer models of machines that are designed for wet shaving or shaving with foam. The first option involves the use of special lotions, the second - applying on the skin mousses, forming a strong foam. Such functions are relevant for men with sensitive skin, who after shaving without the use of moisturizers can begin to seriously irritate.

The cost of these shaving machines is quite high, and you need to treat them very carefully. Even a moisture-resistant enclosure will not keep the device working when it is completely wet or a violation of the operating rules.

Additional Features

Manufacturers of razors, trying to make their goods competitive, equip devices with various functions. The shaving machine can have all kinds of accessories - accessories for performing original beard cuts, special trimmers, vacuum systems for instantly collecting hair cuttings. Some models are equipped with touch screens, with which the machine is easy to control. On such a device, you can quickly switch modes and select the desired length of hair. However, after setting up the machine, the display should be locked, otherwise during an accidental sharp movement all data may be lost.
