Customer Reviews : Philips Norelco 8140XL

This review is from: Razor Philips Norelco 8140XL SpeedXL Men (Health and Beauty) So 1980 gave us a lift and cut. 90s gave us the Reflex Norelco and Quadra systems. Now, finally, for the first time in his 70 + years as a leading manufacturer of rotary shavers, Norelco gives us a system that covers a larger area with greater speed and comfort than ever before. Philips Norelco Shavers is not just a promise faster, shaving Philips Norelco Shavers delivers. I can not speak for all guys, but I will try to breakdown the electric / blade dilemma. Blades closer, but cause irritation. So most blade users tend to skip a day, to avoid this. In addition, you get a shave with a blade if you let the stubble grow bit, so to miss a day is common. But blade shaving gives guys far more options in terms of products to choose from, both for shavers and shaving conditioners and gels. Simply put, if you want a close shave and the ability to manage all aspects of shaving, and see what you're cutting, the blade is the best way to go. There is electric. The idea hatched from the 1930s and then again on the market in the late 1950's Space Age / Cold War, which told us that blade shaving was in the past. Electric shaving promised to be as close as a blade for decades, but never delivered. But over the years, he made his promise safer, faster and less irritating shave.
