Body hair trends are flexible

You can trim, wax, or let it grow. The golden age of body hair means doing whatever you want with it.

Most men groom their body hair

At least 62 percent of men do something to their body hair, whether trimming, waxing, or shaving.

The right tool matters most

Whether you already manscape or are trying for the first time, choosing the right grooming tool is the most important part of the journey.

Razors and clippers have risks

Traditional razors risk nicks and cuts, especially in sensitive areas. Clippers can pull hairs and lack skin protection.

Body groomers prevent cross-contamination

Using the same razor on your body as your face can spread bacteria. Body groomers are designed specifically for sensitive areas.

Modern groomers are advanced

Today's body trimmers feature long-lasting charges, waterproof casings, multiple guards, and special blades designed for comfort.

Panasonic GK80 is best overall

The V-shaped blade and ergonomic design trim hard-to-reach areas with ease. An adjustable dial switches between 12 lengths without removing the comb.

GK80 has a learning curve

The V-shaped blade cuts in both directions, which is easier but feels different from traditional trimmers. The bulky head may take practice.

Manscaped Lawn Mower 5.0 for sensitive areas

Completely waterproof with a dual-head system, LED headlight, and ceramic blades. Wireless charging dock makes upkeep easy.

Lawn Mower 5.0 requires care

It's a push-style trimmer with limited length options. Can still nick skin if you're not careful, so go slow.

Philips OneBlade for sensitive skin

A hybrid trimmer and shaver that's gentle and rarely cuts or pulls hair. Guards let you trim with length, or remove them for a close shave.

OneBlade won't go completely bare

It shaves very close but not 100 percent bald. Best for those nervous about nicks and wanting maximum safety.

Braun Series 7 is a complete kit

Comes with eight combs covering 40 precision lengths, detail trimmer, and ear and nose attachments. Includes an organizer case.

Series 7 excels at shaving

Better for shaving than trimming. Comes with two blades so you can use one for face and one for body to avoid cross-contamination.

Philips Multigroomer does everything

An all-in-one tool for hair, beard, and body with 23 attachments. Self-sharpening blades and five hours of cordless runtime.

Multigroomer needs caution below the belt

It's optimized for cutting head hair, so it's powerful. Use guards on sensitive areas and thoroughly clean before switching locations.

Mangroomer Ultimate Pro for backs

Long angled arm lets you reach your entire back solo. Two interchangeable shaving heads and a Power Burst button for thick hair.

Back shaver has a learning curve

Takes dexterity to see where you're shaving. Only designed for back use, not other body parts. Requires practice.

Wahl Manscaper is budget-friendly

Stainless steel blades, 39 length options, 100 percent waterproof, and 100 minutes of battery life for just 65 dollars.

Budget option has trade-offs

Blades are duller than premium brands and won't give the closest shave without removing guards. Good for wet use and shower trimming.
