Fall Gift Guide For Men – Philips Shaver Series 9000

Fall Gift Guide for Men LLDC

Shavers and Trimmers!
Clean shaven, or beautiful beards!

I know it’s early Ladies, but I think we all know it’s only like 80 shopping days til Christmas…sorry!
I hate being pushed into the holidays waaaaay too early, but I do like to plan ahead. Especially for people who may be ‘difficult’ to buy for. For example, picky I mean men people who have specific interests or love gear/gadgets/items I don’t really know much about.

So to help us all out in this area, LLDC will be posting a Fall Gift Guide For Men over the next few weeks!
Enjoy and You’re Welcome!

Philips Shaver Series 9000

Philips Shaver Series 9000

Get A Great Close Shave

Ok, this is a good one Ladies…

In a recent survey conducted amongst Canadian men between 18 and 40, it was revealed that for many body parts, concerning hair vs no hair, it’s…well…pretty evenly split:

  • When it comes to chest hair, 52% of men think the unshaven look is the most attractive grooming style for them, while the remaining prefer a trimmed look (23%) or clean shaven chest (23%).
  • For under arms, 51% dig the natural look, while 28% prefer trimmed under arms, and only 20% favouring the clean shaven underarm lookConsensus came to a close split when asked about their back hair grooming style: 43% think the unshaven back is most attractive on them, while 44% prefer a clean shaven back.
  • When it comes to hair “down there”, majority of men (50%) go for the trimmed look, while 28% choose the clean shaven look, and 19% preferring the unshaven, “au naturale” look.

What do you think??? 

Ha ha! I think many of us have definite opinions on this. Whether it’s simply personal preference or practical reasons. My own husband is a long time cyclist and shaves his legs most of the summer. And let me tell you, there is nothing wrong with a smooth, muscular man leg.

Now, in preparing for this article, I have to admit I was extremely curious about the  Philips Shaver Series 9000. My hubby hasn’t used one previously and I am a regular shaver kind of gal.
It turns out my Dad has used a Philips for years and LOVES it. He thinks it is the best brand out there.
The Shaver Series 9000 is awesome whether you are looking for a clean polished close shave, or a trim for your manly beard!

  •  It sets a new standard for closeness without compromising comfort – cutting up to 20% more hair in a single pass.
  • V-Track Precision Blades, a state-of-the-art system that guides hairs into the best cutting position for a 30% closer shave
  • Diverse speed settings to best fit individual skin and hair type day after day
  • Each shaving head, with unique Contour Detect Technology, independently moves in eight directions to follow the face’s every curve

It also comes with the SmartClean System which cleans, lubricates, dries, and charges your shaver, keeping it performing at its best, day in and day out.

My results: hehe!
So, I don’t have a beard (a couple of random chin hairs do not constitute a BEARD, ok), but I did want to see what it was like to use an electric razor. And I do have legs and underarms.

Shaving with the Philips Shaver Series 9000 was a FANTABULOUS experience! You can shave wet or dry depending on preference, but I loved being able to grab the shaver for a quick touch up around my knees or underarms without that dry shave burn you get from a reg blade when you are in a rush before date night. For example. *ahem*

My Dad said one of his fave features is, YOU NEVER GET RAZOR BURN. Imagine that! Your skin stays soft and intact. No nicks. Ever. And you still get a clean, close shave. All the better to hug you with Grandpa!

And you can charge it up (all charged in one hour) and take it with you to the gym or camping, the office, or even in the car for a touch up before a big event or your own date night ;). You know if you’re ‘that Guy’ who always has stubble.

If you are serious and looking for ‘laser precision’ and flair to keep your already awesome facial hair stylish and dashing, the Philips Beardtrimmer 9000 will take care of you!

My husband does not have a beard (or a stach) that requires regular upkeep (I’m looking at you Uncle Drue), but as most men/anyone with short hair, it’s really necessary and helpful to have a small trimmer for the back of your neck in between hair cuts. And you know, where ever else you need to trim back the roughage. Or whatever… :)
The Philips Shaver Series 9000 comes with a ‘snap on’ attachment, specifically for those little touch ups. Perfection.

So go forth in confidence Ladies!
I think any man would love the Philips Shaver Series 9000. And it suits all ages and ‘hair’ personalities. College-men, Metro-men, Lumber-men, Woolly-men, Clean-faced-Guy-in-a-suit-and-tie, Guys-in-the-summer-with-overgrowth-in-their-tank-tops (hey, I don’t judge), or even your Dad or Grandad! Or kick up his facial hair care routine with the Philips Beardtrimmer 9000.

I am now going to hand mine over to my lucky husband. And encourage him to trim up his side burns a bit!
