All about rotary shavers

Rotary electric razors are the preferred choice for men today for shaving. They are not only comfortable to use, but also provide the best shave quality. In addition, the use of such a device can significantly reduce skin irritation.

Rotary electric shaver includes several shaving heads with holes, under which there are knives... The principle of operation of the device is that these knives cut hair by penetrating through the opening of the discs. These electric shavers are usually equipped with an additional trimmer that allows you to trim your mustache or beard. If the stubble on the face grows unevenly, then it is worth giving preference to rotary razors, as they guarantee a cleaner shave.

Experts advise to choose units that boast a pair of shaving blocks, which makes the process more efficient.... The most important structural elements of a rotary electric shaver are the plastic body, the blades, the disc, and the electric motor.

In the process of choosing his first electric shaver, every man faces the question of which model to give preference to: rotary or vibration. Among the main advantages of rotary options, which favorably distinguish them from competitors, are the following:

• the presence of unique movable heads that take into account the outlines of the face;
• blades that can be sharpened independently, thanks to which, even after years, the device can cope with even the toughest bristles without problems;
• the presence of many knives, which greatly simplifies the shaving process;
• some models boast a double blade for a cleaner shave;
• the presence of an autonomous battery, which makes the shaver convenient and allows you to use it in places where there is no access to the electrical network;
• advanced models are equipped with a skin cooling system, which significantly reduces irritation;
• self-cleaning function.

Now let's look at the results of comparing data between two types of electric shavers.

• Comfort level. Here, the undisputed leader is the rotary razor, which is capable of following the contours and curves of the face as accurately as possible. As for vibration models, they are distinguished by minimal efficiency in this context. Of course, manufacturers are trying to launch models that can replicate facial features, but so far no one has succeeded in doing this.
• Shaving speed... Rotary nozzles are capable of moving at high speed, which makes it possible to quickly get rid of the bristles, without swiping several times over a certain area. But with vibration models, users are forced to walk a couple of times over the face in order to cut off all the hairs. There are no serious consequences for the skin, but you have to spend extra time.
• Quality... Rotary models, unlike vibration ones, boast a double blade. The first is needed in order to lift the bristles, and the second is just about removing it.
• Safety of use. The rotary electric shaver has a unique design that makes accidental cuts impossible. But the wrong angle of the foil razor can cause a small cut.
• Durability... Rotary variants also benefit here, which are characterized by their resistance to mechanical stress. If, over time, the parts have worn out, then it will not be difficult to replace them. As for the mesh options, they are able to crumple even with minimal impact on them, and repair is an extremely complex process, which is often impossible to carry out at all.
• Versatility... Rotary razors can only be used for shaving, but mesh options are more versatile in this regard. The use of special attachments also allows you to shave off your beard and mustache.
