Back in 2006 I posted about the Philips BodyGroom that had just been released. It became super popular and every guy I know ended up getting one. I personally bought two of them, a 110v first followed by a 220v version. Five years later Philip have gone and completely redesigned the shaver which I ended up ordering from Amazon while I was in New York last month.
The new shaver looks better, comes with a prettier stand and most importantly works better. First of all you no longer need to attach various sized comb attachments to the trimmer since with the new design the trimmer is adjustable. Secondly the shaving head now pivots in 3D which results in a more “comfortable” shave. I am not going to go into a lot of details since you can get all the info from the Philips shaveeverywhere.com website. I will say this though, the new BodyGroom performs a lot better than the older one.
You can order it from Amazon since I haven’t found it locally yet. The price is around KD20 and this new BodyGroom is multi-voltage which means its 110-240v. Here is the link to the shaver on Amazon [Link]

So no more the hairy biker?
Great stuff, as a matter of fact I was looking for a good shaver and very nearly picked up the Panasonic ES8109S Vortex Wet/Dry Shaver with Nano Technology and HydraClean System, from Amazon (US$ 108.97). But this tops the Panasonic on utility and function, besides being sleek and cheaper.
I’ll give it a good look, as it has only got 19 reviews as compared to the Panasonic’s 268, all the same…thank Mark!
Keith this is a body shaver…
Nobody favors hairy nuts anymore..sad. jk
I actually have been looking for a decent body groomer. Tell me how well it works for ya mark when you get yours.
oh wait…i think you already have yours….my bad.

Chuck Norris no, Jack Bauer yes.

Thank you very much Mark for the post.

Men, please don’t shave your body. May I suggest hair laser. 🙂 Most women I know really don’t mind body hair on their hubbys. It’s kind of sexy. Unless it’s on your back and resembles carpet! Then you should be at the zoo. Just teasing! 😉
Where is Chuck Norris?
Type this into google and click “I’m Feeling Lucky”
@expatandthecity..it really depends on the girl I guess. Some girls I know dont mind body hair some hate it! Its really a toss up.
