You know, most of the dry shavers result razor burns and skin irritations for their harsh cutting process. I would also say that the slimmer head and staggered foils make it more suitable for that compared to an Arc 5 which I’ve also used for skin fades. Easy cleaning and maintenance: You can remove the top of the shaver at the touch of a button to easily clean the inside of the shaver. It offers 5 levels of adjustment to precisely set the cutting height with the button on front of clipper which also acts as a thumb rest. The adjustment ranges from 0.7 - 1.1 - 1.4 - 1.7 - 2.0 mm.

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. And I say that because usually, these foil shavers (like the Andis ProFoil or the Wahl Finale) are quite aggressive and harsh. rpm speed will cut faster and will make sure that it will go right into any type of hair texture and remove bulk. The manufacturer used Titanium coated hypoallergenic gold foils on the shaver head for skin-friendly and irritation-free shaving results.

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.

I would still go with the BaBylissPRO for the more comfortable shave and larger battery, but that’s just personal preference. This gives it a premium look and feel and sets it apart from the other two similar shavers mentioned above. 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 FOILFX02 is fitted with a large rechargeable NiMh battery that can provide up to 3 hours of cordless use. Lubricating the cutters (with clipper oil or a spray lubricant) will be beneficial and also reduce the wear and the heat.However, the Babyliss Pro foilfx02 takes 3 hours for a full charge which is a pretty long time. Cordless + corded:

And speaking of it, the foils get warm after a longer session but not to the point of becoming uncomfortable (that might change as the foils and blades wear out). I’ll try to share what I think about each of them and hopefully you’ll be able to decide which one would suit you the best. My unit was bought from the USA, so the charger came with a USA plug. If you’re getting it from Europe, the charger will have an EU plug. Battery life and charging

That said, if you plan on using the FXFS2 as your main shaver (for facial hair), you should consider that it only performs well on short stubble.

At the bottom of the shaver, there are some specifications and directions, and moreover, the charging port where you need to attach the cord for charging. High performance, high torque digital motor: two speed levels from 6000 rpm to 7000 rpm, with constant speed technology for all five hours of autonomy in cordless mode. Outstanding cutting performance. As we’ve seen, this shaver manages to cut the hair really close to the skin which in turn produces a lot of very fine hair dust. The carrying pouch is textile and it’s only good enough to prevent scratches, smudges and dust from covering the shiny metal shaver. The manufacturer also recommends charging the battery for 3 hours before using the shaver for the first time.

Another cool feature is the automatic shut-off cap you can put on in any direction and it turns off the same way. So I bought one year ago the Panasonic Arc 5 the aluminum edition and I’m very happy with it. However I think it would be good to have a new shaver and I’m between the Andis resurge and the Babyliss fx2 silver. The power button also allows you to adjust the cutting speed by simply sliding it up; it goes from 6000 to 7000 rpm. The Babyliss Pro shaver comes in a luxury design but has a vintage shape that is different from the regular modern electric shavers.
