I am starting to shave most of my body, but I have an issue, and that issue is a safety razor. It works well for my face, albeit with some irritation. The blades also dull pretty fast, as I have really coarse hair, and this issue only gets worse if I’m trying to shave my legs. It also takes quite a long time to get everything with a safety razor, in addition to it being irritating and also failing at it’s one job. I appreciate any recommendation and/or reply, thanks in advance y’all!

Also search engines suck, everything is SEO and affiliate links, I promise I wouldn’t be bugging y’all otherwise ;)

    I’ve used the same Wahl clippers for well over five years now. It works for all hair on my body, although it got the most use as a beard trimmer.

      My dad still has a mini Wahl trimmer that is like 35+ years old. I used it over Christmas to trim my beard. It’s corded so not quite as convenient as a modern cordless but it’s still chugging along.

        I got a corded one because batteries die and companies love to change battery types or just make it not repairable. But, it’s a bit less convenient to wrangle a cord.
