In the world of electric shavers, the Norelco ReflexPlus 6853 XL electric shaver is definitely one of the pack leaders. Consumers who have purchases the ReflexPlus 6853 XL are raving about the close shave they are getting, and also are impressed with the fact that regrowth of hair with this electric shaver is as slow as it is with traditional razors. With some of the older electric shavers, one big complaint was that since the shaves weren’t as close as what one could get with traditional razors, shaving had to be repeated much more often. Not so with the Norelco ReflexPlus 6853 XL, which gives a close enough shave to make it unnecessary to have to repeat the process more than once per day. Reasonably priced, the Norelco ReflexPlus 6853 XL is affordable enough for the average consumer, and efficient enough to make it very cost effective. Not only does this razor shave close, but also it does not irritate the skin, making it possible to apply after shave lotion immediately after shaving – something that you cannot do with just any electric shaver. This shaver runs on an electric cord, but it also can run on its rechargeable batteries, which most owners say keep their charge for even longer than the manual states. To minimize the risk of the shaver running out of power in the middle of the shave, the Norelco ReflexPlus 6853 XL comes with two lights; a green one to show that the batteries are charged (the green light blinks while the batteries are charging, and then stays on when they are fully charged), and a red light that comes on when the batteries will need recharging soon. If the red light comes on in the middle of shaving, you still have time to finish your shave before you need to recharge the batteries. The Norelco ReflexPlus 6853 XL has a triple floating head system, which comes off easily so that the shaver can be cleaned. Since it is important to keep an electric shaver cleaned on a regular basis to get the maximum amount of usage out of it, the fact that this electric shaver can be cleaned so easily is a big plus. Norelco includes a cleaning brush with this shaver to make the cleaning process even easier and more convenient. Users of the Norelco ReflexPlus 6853 XL are giving this electric shaver a great big “thumbs up”. Many people who had always sworn by traditional razors are changing their mind when they use this electric model – it’s just that good.

Everybody knows that women’s shaving needs and men’s shaving needs are very different, therefore you simply cannot have one type of electric shaver for both men and women. Women’s electric razors are usually designed quite differently from men’s, and have different features.

Electric shavers for women are contoured in a certain way so that they can shave legs effectively without causing injury. Most women’s electric shavers have a slightly bowed shape at the head, so they can shave the delicate skin around the shin bone of the leg, plus the area around the knee and the calf effectively. Many women’s electric shavers also have features that make them safe to use in the bikini area, as well as the underarm area – places that men rarely have to worry about with their electric shavers.

A large number of women’s electric shavers are “dry” shavers, meaning that they cannot be used with water, lotion, or shaving cream. They are still, however, designed so that they do not irritate the skin, and once an area is completely shaved it is safe to apply lotion. In more recent years, some models of women’s electric shavers have come out on the market that are made for wet shaving – some even have shaving lotion dispensers built right into them as an added feature.

Many women prefer wet shaving, because they feel that they get a closer shave this way. The new electric wet shavers seem to give women what they have always gotten from traditional razors, with a lot more convenience and safety. Since women can tend to suffer from ingrown hairs much more than men, though, it is imperative for women to buy well-designed shavers that cut hair as closely as possible, whether or not they are wet or dry electric shavers.

There is a certain type of electric shaver that is definitely geared toward women. This is the “epilator” type of electric shaver. The difference between a regular woman’s electric shaver and an epilator is that the regular kind simply shaves the hair off at the surface of the skin, but the epilator type of woman’s electric shaver actually “tweezes” the hair out of the skin, root and all. Although technological advances have made some epilator type shavers more comfortable to use, the fact that hair removal with these types of electric shavers can be painful is still one of the most common complaints. That being said, however, when hair is removed by an epilator type of women’s electric shaver, the hair stays gone much longer, and regrowth is slower. For many women, this can be worth the discomfort.
