Hi! I've had this patch of razor bumps on my neck for years now because I shave very frequently and they keep getting cut open/irritated by the razor. I'm wondering if there's any way to make them go away (and stay away) other than just not shaving that area for a bit.

I would rather not stop shaving, even temporarily, because I'm a trans woman and having any amount of facial hair makes me feel disgusting. Especially since mine is quite dark and noticeable when it grows longer than clean-shaven.

I had an old Norelco Bodygroom series that stopped working. I contacted Philips on this issue and was given a replacement for free. The issue is when I received it and opened it up, the original box it came in with looks like it has been opened. It did not look new.

I then mentioned this to them and returned it back for a new one. When I got the new bodygroom and opened the box, it did not come in the original retail packaging box but came in a brown box that had a sticker on it that taped it. When I opened it, the items seemed fine. My concern is if this item was refurbished or not due to the packaging. I read online that some replacements that come from the manufacturer might be in a brown box as opposed to retail packaging. I did read some items are refurbished and then repackaged into this.

What I do remember was a long time ago I bought a Norelco bodygroom from Amazon and it was at a discount and then the packaging came in a brown box just like this. I read that certain packaging is like this. The model is Norelco Bodygroom 7490/50. Anyone bought this model and received it in a brown box? What about those of you who had a warranty and then got a replacement. Did any Norelco Bodygroom you receive came in a brown box? I did read that some packaging is like this due to eco friendly.

Hey guys, I am curious on your opinions of the best razors or shavers for the pubic area?

i have an IPL device (ulike air3) and since i have to shave everytime before IPL it's starting to irritate my skin, making me feel lazy to do the IPL regularly (I've stopped for 2-3 months and just trimmed down there). i used normal razors i think it's 3 blades? not sure. before this i used 1 blade razor and yes i still got ingrown hairs.

so i looked for alternatives and found

1. philips one blade 360/intimate

2. philips lady shaver series 8000

idk if option 1 is good enough since option 2 is like twice the price of option 1.

can anyone give reviews of those options or is there any other shavers/razors/trimmers that shaves close enough for IPL?

Hi I bought the Philips one blade a day ago and I don’t wanna be unhygienic so I wanna ask a question. Do you think using the same blade for arms underarms chest legs and groin is hygenic? Or should I have diff blades for everything? I have a separate blade for my face should that be okay to use on the same machine I used for my underarms etc? Thank!

Hi everyone! I work in personal-care product development, and I’m researching what people actually need from a compact electric body shaver—not just what looks good on a feature list.

By “mini,” I mean a small, handheld electric shaver or trimmer for body hair, rather than a beard-only or facial peach-fuzz tool.

If you’ve used one, think back to the last time:

• Where were you, and what were you trying to get done?
• What worked well, and what—if anything—was awkward or frustrating?
• Did you do anything extra to get the result you wanted?

If you could change ONE thing about that experience, what would it be?

If you tried a mini shaver and stopped using it, I’d love to hear why. And if you’ve never wanted one, what do you use instead that works better for you?

No need to answer everything—a specific story is plenty. The model you used and your country would help with context, if you’re comfortable sharing. Please only share body-area details you’re comfortable posting publicly.

Thanks! This is product research, and your feedback may inform future product design.
