shaver that keeps stubble

s4ch117 · 14 Nov 2009 at 11:24

hi,

does anyone know of any electronic shavers out there that will let you keep a certain amount of stubble on your face? want to keep it at grade 0.5 or 1 ideally.

thanks

Type "stubble beard trimmer" into Google, there are loads that do this. I use a Remington beard trimmer.

Babyliss iTrim here. Works a treat but I think if you wanted to trim to anything other than the 0.5mm setting it might not work so well.

Hair clippers without a guard, I use them and I'm stubbly

I just do my whole head with clippers, the stubbly egg look.

Remington MB-320C is perfect for what you want.

The choice of length settings are:
1=1.5mm,
2=2.5mm,
3=4mm
4=5.5mm
5=7mm
6=9mm
7=11mm
8=14mm
9=18mm

I recently bought myself a Remington Professional MB-320C after a few others recommended it on OcUK a while back...and it's great!

It's a bit noisy, but the battery lasts for ages and it does a fantastic job.

edit: mint beat me to it

Same here, its so much easier to just to shave your face and head all in one shot for the dirty tennis ball effect

Just checked and my Remington is the MB320C mentioned above.

I found this absolutely dreadful and it felt very flimsy.

The elecrtical end feels cheaply made, and it shows when you try and use it, try because the button on it is tiny, for people with large hands its impossible. Really tacky if I may say so. I'd go for somehting from Remington because their always nicely made and reliable.
