From peach fuzz on your face to rogue hairs on your bikini line: whatever your body hair drama, these sleek and sexy razors have got your problem solved.
From peach fuzz on your face to rogue hairs on your bikini line: whatever your body hair drama, these sleek and sexy razors have got your problem solved.
Pretty much every woman I know has a love/hate relationship with their body hair. We want it to grow in certain places (hello, luscious locks) but not others, (Oh, hai, bushy brows) and we spend our lives trying to trim it, enrich it or remove it completely.
If you're like me, you'd love to make the "removal" part easier. Originally a fan of waxing, I ditched the expensive, semi-regular trips to the spa awhile back and instead invested in a few key electric razors to target my hairy problem areas. But I admit the whole thing was a bit overwhelming - there are so many options out there, all promising to turn you from an overgrown hairy gorgon into a sleek and sexy glamazon. While we can't quite guarantee that, we do promise that all these razors we've found below have bonafide fans who love the fact that they can get smooth and silky legs, flawless brows, a beautiful bikini line, and a fuzz-free face on the reg, from the comfort of their own home.

This cordless wet and dry razor comes with four different attachments and gets an average of 4.3/5 starss on Amazon so it has a lot of fans. It uses floating foil contours for a super close shave and rounded pearl-tip trimmers to protect your skin. It also has a battery light so you never have to worry about wondering if it's time to recharge. "This is a great option for people with sensitive skin that want an alternative to regular shaving, people that want to dry shave and for trimming in preparation of regular shaving or lazer. Also great for difficult to shave areas such as the knees."
This razor is sleek and sexy and uses a bi-directional pivoting head, making it great to use on sensitive and hard-to-reach areas like your ankles, knees and underarms. With a lush 18-karat gold head, you don't actually need to use soap, water or creams - it works just as well on its own. Fully rechargeable, it's a great travelling companion, and it has an LED light so you never miss a hair. "Love It! What a great little shaver! So easy to handle and use at any time. Legs feel so smooth after use."
This razor from Remington has dual, hypoallergenic foils to help minimise skin irritation and has a flexible trimmer and a massaging strip to make shaving just that little bit more comfortable. "Stylish. Practical. Affordable. Just love it," writes one reviewer, adding, "It even has built-in rechargeable battery."

This sexy looking shaver has five 360 degree rotating floating heads to make sure not a single hair is missed and it's sleek, gentle and painless. It comes with a rechargeable lithium battery and is strong enough for your legs but gentle enough for everywhere else. "Great for legs and faces alike!" writes one reviewer. "I thought this would only do touch ups on already shaved skin. However it powers through longer leg hair and is also gentle enough to do an amazing job on my face."
This is not an electric razor but it certainly leaves your disposable supermarket options in the dust. This kit comes with a solid brass safety razor, ten stainless steel blades, rose geranium shaving oil, a travel bag and a blade bank to help you safely dispose of your razor blades - which you can then pop in the recycling when it's full! If you like the idea of a close shave, manual razor this is a great buy. "I love this kit! The razor looks great in my shower holder and the rose geranium oil smells amazing, the scent is like perfume and lasts long after you've finished shaving! I am not yet through the first razor blade so I can imagine the pack of 10 will last for ages!"
This three-piece kit works great wet or dry so you can use it in the shower to remove those stubborn bikini line hairs. The smooth glide of the shaver means minimal redness or irritation and the foil shave head provides a close shave.

This kit includes a bikini trimmer, detail trimmer, hypoallergenic mini foil shaver, adjustable length comb and storage pouch and is a great, affordable buy you can easily chuck in your bag before you head off on that much-deserved beach vacay. "Love it," says one reviewer. "I'm not a fan of waxing and this is all I need to make sure my bikini line is trim and respectable when I'm lying by the pool."
With a few more bells and whistles, this kit, also from Remington, has five attachments, including an exfoliator brush to remove dead skin cells. It also has a built-in shower hook which is handy, especially since this model is 100% waterproof and can be used in the shower.
Perfect for shaping and trimming your eyebrows, this sleek model is a gorgeous design and gives you optimum precision, thanks to its LED light that means you never miss a hair. Did we mention it's also gorgeous? That has to be the sexiest hair removal device I've ever seen!
This trimmer is great for the eyebrows and other delicate parts of the face like the nose and hairline. It features a dual-sided trimmer to be as precise as possible and has a flexible head with built-in LED light to make sure you don't miss a thing. "It’s all about the brows," says one, adding, "This beauty trimmer is an absolute must-have for foolproof brow grooming. It trims unruly John Howard brows to a tidy length without the risk of going too short. I’ve even used it to trim my nose hair with great success."
This rechargeable eyebrow and facial hair trimmer is cheap and cheerful and has a whopping 16,000+ ratings across Amazon with an average of 4.4/5 stars. Why is it so great? It has a 2-in-one head that works perfectly on both targeted areas like the eyebrows and peach fuzz across your lip line and cheekbones. It's a razor rather than an epilator meaning it's painless and efficient. "This little thing is brilliant! I mainly bought it because I have upper lip hair that I usually pluck and its painful, using this in replacement is wonderful. I have a smooth finish after and it is so easy to use... It cuts very close without hurting and I can now shape my eyebrows much better. In conclusion, this is a wonderful, quick and easy to use tool, convenient, easy to clean and perfect size to take anywhere."
This small but mighty device is quick, precise and portable, leaving your skin feeling smooth as a baby. It has a built-in LED light to make sure you never miss a spot, and the razor's rotary design contours to your skin so it can reach every angle quickly and effectively.
Choosing a razor is a surprisingly personal experience and not every razor is going to work for everyone. Things to consider are whether you have sensitive skin, whether you have dark or light hair, how thick it is and how quickly it grows back. How often do you need to shave and what areas are you shaving? These are all the things you'll need to consider.
The most common razors are either disposable razors or safety razors. The advantage of disposables is they are cheap and easy to use, but the blades aren't usually the best quality, which means if you have sensitive skin, it's probably better to invest in a safety razor. Either way, you should be changing your blades every few weeks, because using a dull razor can also irritate your skin.
Typically, an electric razor won't give you quite as close a shave as a safety or a disposable - though there are those who will disagree. The advantage of an electric razor is that it usually irritates your skin far less, and it doesn't usually require creams or gels - though you can use them with selected models. If you are looking for a razor for smaller parts of your face or those more sensitive areas of your skin, it's good to consider an electric model.
If you're using a safety or disposable razor, it's a good idea to include a gel or cream as part of your shaving routine. For one thing, they stop your skin from getting dry, but secondly, they can act as a buffer and stop your skin from getting irritated.
