Seeing TV advertisements for mens electric razors is like reviewing a mystery film. You never know what the newest and greatest feature is going to be. The Braun ad claims that their make has the best feature of turning heads that will conform to even the roughest of faces. It will glide over your face and cut every hair close because of the revolving blades. Get more information at the electric razors review site.

Another product will declare their machine will cut closer than any other shaver because it has six blades that will elevate the beard higher and cut more of the beard than any other brand. I get tickled because I contemplate how high a beard can be lifted before the skin is cut along with the beard. I can just see the advertisement where the chap shaving comes away with such a clean-cut beard that he doesn’t have a face anymore.

I also get a kick out of those who claim that their machine is portable and water proof. They show a man driving his car and shaving while he stares into the rear view mirror. I ponder, about him seeing an on-coming car. Then of course, you have the guy in the shower happily singing while his glossy new shaver is cutting his beard. I often speculate if there is ever a short in the contraption. Does the man get a shock when the water hits his face.

One market the advertisers seem to neglect is the women’s market. I have seen very few advertisements that endorse shavers for ladies to use. This is a large market that is not being tapped by the main brands. My wife loves her new Norelco electric shaving system because it does a good job of cutting her hair without nicking herself.
