7 Electric Shaver Benefits for Smooth Skin

Skin irritation from shaving is not uncommon, but that doesn't mean you should skip your usual shave. If you struggle with acne and skin irritations like redness or razor bumps or want to avoid cuts while shaving, an electric shaver can be a great solution. 
 
Take a look at how using an electric shaver can benefit your skin, as well as some of the features of the Braun Series 9 PRO + that you should learn about when buying your electric shaver.


Are electric razors better than conventional razors?

While most men still opt for “conventional” razors (e.g., disposable razors with three or five blades or razors with replaceable heads), electric razors are also becoming more popular. Unlike conventional razors, they last for many years and still deliver a high-quality shave.

Below, you'll find seven reasons why using an electric razor is better.

1. Protects against nicks and cuts 

Braun’s Series 9 PRO + shaver features two ultra-thin foils that let you get a close shave, but not too close. Plus, the shaver has a built-in SkinGuard that uses a skin-protecting metal bar to prevent further skin damage.

2. You’re less likely to have ingrown hairs

Many razors are equipped with multiple blades, so if shaving with one blade leads to ingrown hairs, opting for an electric razor might be a good idea.  

Some skin types benefit from a blade that is close to the skin but doesn’t touch it directly. If you often get ingrown hairs when using razors with three or five blades, an electric shaver that creates a space between the blade and the skin might be right for you.

The Braun Series 9 PRO+ now features the ProComfort attachment for pre-shaving. Before shaving, you can put on the ProComfort head to gently massage and detach the beard hairs from the skin. Then, you can shave with your normal shaving head for a closer shave with more skin comfort.

3. Protects Sensitive Skin

Electric shavers help capture hair without pulling and tugging at the skin, which reduces skin irritation. Newer technologies in the shaving industry also mean that common problems — skin discomfort or irritation associated with shaving — are reduced. The more we learn how the skin reacts to shaving, the better we can develop electric razors that reduce the most common discomfort.

4. Features a long-lasting blade

Although the upfront investment in an electric razor may be higher, the payoff means that you only have to replace the cutting head about once a year, depending on the manufacturer.

5. Provides an easy, pleasant shaving experience

Some electric shavers are waterproof, which makes shaving easier. You can shorten the time it takes to shave by eliminating shaving cream or water and still have a comfortable experience.

6. It’s easy to clean

If you don't clean your razor blade, you can build up debris and hair, reducing the blade's effectiveness. Fortunately, it's easy to clean an electric razor. It may come with a cleaning station that ensures the razor is ready after each use to enhance sanitizing for the next time.
 
Not only is an electric razor easy to clean, but it also doesn't need to be rinsed after each stroke, making it easier to use.

7. It’s portable

The Braun Series 9 PRO+ can also be used on the go. Our world’s first portable PowerCase allows you to shave for 6 weeks without a power outlet, which is perfect for travel.
