Babyliss Pro Titanium Foil Shaver Cordless/Ultra-Close

Product Information

The BaBylissPRO FOILFX02 will give you the closest dry shave of them all, comparable to a wet shave with the Arc 5/6. You cannot use it with shaving cream though, that’s one of the negatives. Another one would be that it will take you longer to shave your head with the BaBylissPRO compared to the S9 Pro or even the Panasonic. It only has two basic foils with limited range of motion, so it will take some extra time and effort to complete the shave. That said, if you plan on using the FXFS2 as your main shaver (for facial hair), you should consider that it only performs well on short stubble. When this 5 Star Finale was released it was marketed as ‘The Ultimate finishing tool’ and it’s easy to see why with its compact, classic design. Lightweight and easy to control it is the definitive tool for finishing, fading, blending and cleaning up hair lines. I recommend a clipper oil like the ones from Wahl or Oster, but any light mineral oil will work fine. Granted, using a quality shaving cream will give the above-mentioned Panasonic razors the edge, but for shaving dry, I actually think the BaBylissPRO is at least as good in terms of closeness.

I think the device has a good enough built quality and comparably better machine than the alternatives. Most importantly, the foils have been placed in a different measurements with 120° up and down for maximum precision and versatility. Hypoallergenic Foils: I think the manufacturer wanted to give the professionals a durable and reliable shaving tool that can handle the heaviest load. Two Cutting Elements: But the hypoallergenic foils of the shaver are very efficient for delivering maximum skin comfort in bump-free shaving. Precisely, the hair must be short. The manufacturer recommends 1/32 of an inch, which is really short.

After that, I remove the foil and let everything dry before using the shaver. This is only necessary when using a spray lubricant (no need to let it dry if you use clipper oil). Replacement parts availability However, the Babyliss Pro foilfx02 takes 3 hours for a full charge which is a pretty long time.

Van salon- en sessiestylisten tot glam squads; van mobiele kappers tot barbieren; van bekende namen tot kappers in opleiding en stagiaires, wij laten onze stappen door jullie leiden. Lubricating the cutters (with clipper oil or a spray lubricant) will be beneficial and also reduce the wear and the heat.

And that’s because cleaning a shaver with water (and a bit of liquid soap) is by far the easiest and most effective method. Although a professional shaver, you can also use it for your personal grooming while you do not demand wet shaving and are comfortable with such a square-shaped shaver. Babyliss manufactured their FoilFX shavers with a stainless steel frame that feels super hard and stronger than any other shaver I have ever tried. Charging a larger battery also takes longer, so you’ll usually have to wait around 3 hours to charge it from 0 to 100%. As I’ve mentioned earlier, using a good pre-shave lotion will make this shaver even more comfortable and more effective at cutting the hairs with fewer strokes.

My unit was bought from the USA, so the charger came with a USA plug. If you’re getting it from Europe, the charger will have an EU plug. Battery life and charging This gives it a premium look and feel and sets it apart from the other two similar shavers mentioned above. Babyliss Pro added auto sensor technology in the FoilFX02 shaver that automatically turns off the shaver while putting the shaver without turning off the power. If you compare the battery power with the regular premium shavers on the market like Philips 9000, Braun Series 9, and Panasonic arc5; all the shavers provide a 1-hour runtime maximum.

The manufacturer used Titanium coated hypoallergenic gold foils on the shaver head for skin-friendly and irritation-free shaving results. Then I moved to the Panasonic Arc 4 that I used for many years and that shaver is still working very well, I gave it to my father and he is happy with it.

The Babyliss pro foilfx02 shaver’s foils are flexible to move up and down independently which ensures super comfortable glides over the skin. Rotary Motor: Babyliss used a powerful rotary motor in this hard shaver for handling heavy-duty even on coarse head hairs.

This Andis ProFoil Lithium Plus, is an upscale version to its predecessor the ever popular TS 1. It brings with it some of the feature of the TS 1 which made it so popular among barbershops worldwide. The gold-titanium, hypoallergenic foils and the two staggered heads make for an exceptional close shave and prevent irritation of even the most sensitive skin. It isn’t exactly cheap for a basic double foil shaver, but then again it comes with a very strong motor, solid metal build and a massive battery.After a few decades of wasting money on non top-line shavers, not feeling that I needed to pay over 100eur for such a piece of not-brain-science technology, and yet ultimately throwing most out or being disappointed, after seeing this beauty at my barber shop, I decided to spend way more than I would like on a shaver that I thought - ok, finally, I won't have to waste more time on this in my life for several years.
