" ...  And he has been cutting his own hair for a long time  ...  "
comment
" ...  This is a great little grooming kit. ... Plenty of power and LOTS of attachments so you can use it for pretty much all your grooming needs.  ...  "
comment
" ...  One thing I - and others - have complained about with their grooming devices and clippers has been the flimsy guards that were poorly designed. ... The Groomsman 5000 comes with a very solid set of guards comparable to those found on typical hair clippers. ... The beard trimming blades work fine, but I use the regular hair clipper blades to trim my beard as the only guard the gives the right length fits that particular attachment. ... The detail blades are good for getting into tight spots like under the nose and around ears. ... Speaking of nose, the nose and ear trimmer is solidly built so hopefully it will hold up better than other nose hair trimmers I've had. ... In the past I used another Norelco trimmer made just for the nose and ears, and it cut incredibly close and was very effective. ... As for power, this trimmer is sufficient for my needs. ... It's certainly more powerful than my old Norelco with a rechargeable NiCad battery (and crappy guards). ... Normally I use full size Wahl hair clippers to buzz my head close, but I decided to try doing so with this. ... Don't expect the results or ease of cutting you'd get from corded or expensive cordless clippers, but it will cut. ... If I'm traveling I'll likely leave my big Wahl clippers at home and rely on these trimmers to do it all. ... The unit is also more than powerful enough for body grooming. ... All in all, I'd definitely recommend this trimmer.  ...  "
comment
" ...  This grooming kit is great. ... The beard guards come in many lengths so you can get down to that 5 o’clock shave look. ... The nose hair trimmer works great also.  ...  "
comment
" ...  I decided to go back to the Norelco line and try the step-up from my old shaver/trimmer. ... It's solid, cuts with ease, and has more attachments than you could ever hope to actually use.  ...  "

comment
" ...  The best trimming kit ever. ... Like to keep my beard longer than a 3mm. ... This has so many trim length options it's perfect. ... Blades cut smooth and charge holds a long time.  ...  "

comment

" ...  I use to shave my head & Beard, best trimmer I've had in years  ...  "
comment
" ...  Norelco's a brand I've heard of *at all* before sitting down to buy my first electric razor, so I decided that this one was both well within my arbitrarily defined price range *and* probably not going to kill me upon turning it on. ... What I've received from this product is nothing short of a good shave.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Works great for shaving your face every few days. ... This thing does a great job cutting close, but not irritating my skin like some of the electric razors I've used. ... If you don't mind stubble and shaving a little more often, this is a great alternative to an electric razor.  ...  "
