Body hair

Summary

Effectiveness

3/3

The trimmer immediately reduces the length and volume of hairs. The result can be adjusted according to your preferences, but disappears with regrowth.

Accessibility

2/3

A mower can be reused for a long time, but maintaining several areas takes time. The back is less accessible and touch-ups remain regular.

To maintain your hair without shaving everything, a body trimmer with several combs is generally sufficient. Shorten the hair that gives too much volume to the chest, stomach or armpits, and remove the hair that you don't want to keep on the shoulders or back. Start long, then reduce: the same comb gives a different result depending on the density and color of the hair.

Maintain continuity between areas: a very short torso above a very full stomach creates a visible demarcation. On the pubis and folds, only use a device and protection adapted to the area, without looking for perfectly smooth skin. Redo the edits when the result no longer suits you.
