Comparing Electronic Beard Shavers
When comparing electronic beard shavers, the most important thing to consider is the type of shaving head used. Other factors to consider include attachments and peripherals, wet-shaving capability and recharge time. Does this Spark an idea?
-
Foil Shavers
-
Foil-type electronic shaving heads use oscillating blades behind perforated screens. Because foil shavers touch only a small surface of the face at a time, they are particularly effective in shaving hard to reach areas like the neck.
Rotary Shavers
-
Rotary-type shaving heads use multiple spinning circular blades on flexible mounts, which allow the shaver to adjust to the contours of the face. The area of contact between the face and the rotary shaver is typically wider than that of the face and the foil shaver, making for a faster shave.

Features
-
Both rotary and foil shavers can come in waterproof models and with an assortment of trimming attachments. The battery life and recharge time of shavers is also variable, and not dependent on which type of shaving heads are used.
