Should I buy a particular brand of shaver?

This is a frequently asked question and the best answer is - " find the shaver that works best for you". You can achieve this by selecting a shaver with a "money back" guarantee offered by most manufacturers. If you are currently using an electric shaver and are happy with the results but are looking to upgrade to a newer model, we recommend that you continue using the same type of electric shaver. We carry a wide selection for you to choose from.

How do I maintain my shaver and is it costly?

Foil shavers: It is recommended that you replace the screens every 6-9 months and the cutters once a year. The costs vary between models, a Braun and Remington screen & cutter set will range in price between CAN$30-$45.

Rotary Shavers: Rotary shavers may be more cost effective as they require less maintenance. Rotary heads on shavers such as the Philips brand will last roughly 2 years. The cost of replacement heads range form CAN $30 - $50. To ensure longevity in your razor heads, be sure to clean & lubricate on a regular basis.

Is there a difference between cordless and cord/cordless shavers?

The difference between these two types of shavers is convenience. When you use a cordless shaver you must ensure that the battery is charged otherwise the shaver will not work. While cord/cordless shavers may cost a little more, they are well worth the money. If you forget to charge your shaver, the cord/cordless shaver is ready to go as soon as you plug it in.

Is there a reason my foil wears out so quickly?

The most common reason a screen wears out quickly is caused by excess pressure during shaving. The screens are quite fragile and can be damaged easily. Proper maintenance will ensure optimum performance of your shaver. This includes replacing the cutter every year and regular cleaning & lubrication.
This should help make the screen last longer.
