Andis Profoil Lithium Plus Shaver with Charging Stand

Product Information

Compared to other foil shavers from Braun or Panasonic, the ones on the Andis ProFoil are thinner, which should help achieve a close shave. There’s no need to lubricate the blades according to the manufacturer, but I don’t think it would hurt.

Weighing less than 5 ounces and featuring a soft grip design, this lightweight Andis foil shaver provides superior comfort and control during use. The TS-2 or Andis ProFoil Lithium Plus is Andis's upgrade to their popular TS-1 titanium foil shaver.And depending on your shaving routine and other aspects (like dealing with sensitive, irritation-prone skin), it may not be a viable option as your main electric (face) shaver. Our experienced team are happy to offer you help and information any of the scissors and razors or other products in our large range. Being a dry only electric razor, I only used it dry and only a couple of times I applied a pre-shave lotion. If you have hair that grows in different directions, you’ll have to adjust the direction of your stroke more often and always approach the hair against the grain. Beyond mere products, we aspire to foster a community where beauty is defined by authenticity, and self-care becomes a ritual of self-love.

While primarily intended for finishing fades and removing occasional stubble, the ProFoil can actually be a good option for home users as well. This actually happened to me as I have a very sensitive neck, and as a result, the closeness on the cheeks was noticeably better than on my neck as I could really be thorough and get a smooth shave. And when used on the sides and back of my head, it’s very smooth and comfortable and I never got any irritation or redness at all. Why this one sounds interesting is that it could be one alternative for shaving my head, as I think about starting to shave my head, instead of trimming it down to around 1mm every few weeks.

Just make sure you leave the foil detached to allow the product to dry completely before using the shaver.

But it sounds so tempting that it shaves really, really close, and that your professionall barber includes it as part of his toolbox.This shaver is fitted with a rechargeable Lithium-ion battery that can provide enough power for up to 80 minutes of cordless use. Almost all modern electric shavers are pretty easy to clean manually if you can rinse them with water. Side note: There’s also a newer Andis Profoil Lithium Plus Titanium Foil Shaver which comes with a couple of updates (more details later on), but performance-wise, it is identical to the ProFoil in this review. I absolutely didn’t expect the foils to wear out anywhere near as quickly as they did – but I found out when I dug a small hole in my head.

On the cheeks, chin and below the nose it was fine most of the time, but again, I tried not to be sloppy and only use light pressure and short, controlled strokes.Secondly, I got significantly better results, both with regards to closeness and the time it took me to complete my shave when using the Andis ProFoil on short hair. But in all honesty, it’s not really a fair comparison given how thin the Andis foils are and as a result, they will wear out faster. There’s no dedicated travel lock, but since it’s quite difficult to slide up and turn the shaver on, I don’t think it’ll ever be a problem.
