I read a review that said this groomer is not recommended for facial hair. I wanted a trimmer for my beard and body hair. Any suggestions?

Hello Michael u can get 1 for facial and one for body this is especially for body groom it can be used for all parts of the body below the neckline and there are plenty of facial groomers for facial and I totally recommend using Philips ones

The product is not intended for facial hair. It works well on abdomen, back, buttocks, legs, arms and pubic area, although it's not recommended for the latter.

Yes, it works well for a beard trimmer. I've only used a couple other so I don't have much to compare it to but overall for the price it does the job and doesn't pull as much as other ones I've tried.

It works great on my beard. I'm growing mine out and I use this to trim it every few weeks to keep it even. The directions recommend not rushing, use smooth, gentle movements and trimming from multiple directions.

It's not a shaver, although there is a pop up mustache trimmer that does a good job. It could be used to trim the beard by the neck. In my case, my beard gets trimmed when I get a haircut. I hope this is useful.

I'm sorry to be truculent. But, this product, while billed for beards and such, is ultimately simply for cutting hair. Did you suspect it might shut down or light fires if it approached hair *not* on your face?

Works very well for facial hair, especially corse hair. Shaver is very powerful, but is very smooth and doesn't nip the skin.

Sorry my husband says it is a great shaver but no attachment for trimming beards.

From my two-month experience it is designed and works better as a body groomer. I tried it once on my face and din't like the awkward angles it allowed so I got a separate beard trimmer. You may with some practice and patience(which I lack) grow to manipulate it anywhere but for me, given prior history with a multi-purpose shaver, I could never quite get the feel I was comfortable with. Hope this helps...

I don't think it will be good for facial hair...I have not tried on face and I use it for my legs/hands only. Its too wide for face. I feel its not a good idea to use it on face.

The razor does not have a trimmer. It is perfectly good for the normal one days growth. A fully grown beard would require another razor.

It makes a decent beard trimmer. It has an adjustable attachment but you need to rinse the device during the trim to provide a clean cut

I don't own this particular beard trimmer but it has been my experience that beard trimmers do work but require many passes and they clog up fast.

I am sorry I can't help you regarding the usefulness of using the brush on a beard. It is a really nice brush for hair, but I think beards are a bit tougher.

I've never used the clippers as a beard shaver. I do use the trimmer on my facial hair though, even though it doesn't have any sort of adjustments for it. It works for me and gives you a scruff look. I would assume though that using the main clipper on a longer beard would work and could then be cleaned up with the trimmer.

This is respond from my husband: " This trimmer works great for trimming beards to 3/64ths inch to inches long. It does not come with a comb that would go up to 1 inches. For a longer goatee, I would detach the comb and use it freehand." hope that helps.

The shaver only has a traditional sideburn trimmer that can be used to neat'n up a scraggly beard or moustache. You can't "comb" out a long beard to shorten or manage it. You will want a small moustache trimmer with attachable cutting combs of various lengths. That is usually a fifteen dollar, battery operated shaver available anywhere grooming products are sold. I just bought a Wahl beard trimmer at Kmart for twelve dollars (with 3 beard combs) the same day my Braun arrived from Amazon.
