Whether the man in your life is a techie, classic gentleman or just looking for a more enjoyable shaving experience, we’ve got a gift option for him. The Braun Series shavers Clean & Renew function provides guys the gift of convenience and offers ladies the gift of eliminating the need for post-shave cleanup while The Art of Shaving grooming products offer a smoother cheek to kiss under the mistletoe!

We had the chance for hubby to try out the new Braun Series 7.

Braun Series 7 – The 2009 shave tool award winner from Men’s Health in the magazine’s 2009 Grooming Awards, Braun Series 7 is the perfect item for every guy’s wish list. The Series 7 shaver head is the world’s first with Pulsonic Technology, an active head oscillating at over 10,000 micro-vibrations per minute to help deliver Braun’s closest shave ever. Offering outstanding smoothness and skin comfort, Series 7 shavers range in price from $249 to $289. Braun also offers several other Series razors at various price points to meet every gift buyer’s budget, including the new Braun Series 3.

Our thoughts

I was very excited to have received this. To be frank, we have not been able to find any razor, electric or plane jane ‘agreed’ with hubby’s sensitive skin. When we opened the Braun Series 7 box, I was happy to see a lot of things included. And I mean a LOT! Included, there was the razor, holster, cleaner, charger, liquid for the cleaner – you name it, it came with it. Hubby put this to the test right away. His thoughts were that it is an amazing razor, works beautifully, but was a bit on the loud side from his almost 4 year old electric razor. That really isn’t a complaint, just a note. We love that this razor has the option to be cordless, as well as to be used with the cord, if it is not fully charged. It’s nice not having to be glued to the cord when he is shaving. Right out of the box, we charged it for about 10 minutes and hubby was able to get a full shave. We weren’t able to do that with his old razor; more like it was 12+ hours to get a partial shave, so that was nice! The Braun Series 7 cleans itself, is rechargeable and should be on anyone’s holiday list for the man in their lives.

Pricing & Availability:

Series 7 is available in department/specialty, mass merchandise stores and club stores for a suggested retail price ranging from $249to $289.

There is another razor that is a set that I wanted to share with you as well!
