About this deal

The BaBylissPRO FXFS2 is not unfortunately waterproof, which is a bummer as you won’t be able to rinse it clean.

Lubricating the cutters (with clipper oil or a spray lubricant) will be beneficial and also reduce the wear and the heat. I wipe the outside of the shaver with a cloth (microfiber) and this also gets rid of the smudges on the glossy surface. Guide Combs: The Pro FX3 offers eight comb attachments, covering various cuts and lengths. This is particularly useful for experiential home groomers or barbers with a varied arsenal of cuts. I wasn’t expecting anything spectacular in that regard and can’t really fault the shaver for that. Just shave more often and everything will be fine. In my opinion, at this price point, a charging stand should have been included (the much cheaper Andis Profoil Lithium Plus Titanium comes with one).By far the most remarkable aspect of this BaBylissPRO double foil shaver (and the main reason to buy it) has to be the closeness.

I just don’t want to take any risk of damaging them. If you do want to clean the cutters with the brush, make sure to be very gentle and only brush with the direction of the blades, never across them (longitudinally). The manufacturer doesn’t explicitly mention an interval for replacing these parts, but given my experience with other similar shavers from different brands, we’re probably looking at 6 to 12 months.

It isn’t exactly cheap for a basic double foil shaver, but then again it comes with a very strong motor, solid metal build and a massive battery.Regular cleaning during use, especially for those with a full head of hair, is recommended. There have also been reports of a decrease in battery efficiency over time, which is generally a result of consistent overcharging. I found your review of the FOILFX02 to be spot-on. While it wasn’t the most comfortable foil shaver (two days growth was as much pulling as I could tolerate), it DID shave as close as any blade. The lower vibration of the clipper allows the muscles of your hand to be less tired or stressed-out at the end of the day. The Pro FX3 Hair Clipper is a gem in the grooming sector. Its sharp and deep-toothed cutting blade snips hair precisely, consistently. For a close shave, the Panasonic Arc 5 and 6 (both shave equally close) or the BaBylissPRO FOILFX02 are the ones to get. Both have their own pros and cons though.

Your shave will take a long time as the cutting system of the FOILFX02 is really basic (two micro-foils) and catching longer or flat-lying hairs will require a lot of passes. Tip: if you’re a barber, get the Andis ProFoil Plus Titanium (17200) instead of the regular ProFoil. It has a very grippy rubber sleeve and a handy charging stand and costs only slightly more. The pair of blades and the foil head of the BaBylissPRO FXFS2 will probably need to be changed more often compared to the ones of a typical foil shaver. While the Clipper may have a few areas of improvement, its unique features and consistent performance make it a valuable asset for professional barbers and those seeking a top-quality grooming tool at home.I am yet to use the Andis Resurge, so I cannot comment on that particular model. But the closeness should be very similar to the barber-style shavers, including the ProFoil and FX2. One advantage of the Resurge over those two is that it’s waterproof and can be rinsed with water, I really miss that when using any of the double foil shavers I have. But it is indeed more like a standard everyday shaver for the face and it even has a slit trimmer for longer hairs. In my opinion it won’t be ideal for skin fades, but it will work nevertheless. Daarom luisteren wij naar jou en blijven we leren. Om op deze manier te innoveren, waarin centraal staat dat we nieuwe tools ontwerpen en ontwikkelen die echt nodig zijn. Om op te vallen, uit te blinken en elke dag opnieuw optimaal te kunnen presteren. The stand is particularly useful for barbers as an easy way to always have the shaver charged and ready for use.
