I can see in the data that you, my Blue Print readers, really love to find the right grooming tools. Above other categories like skincare and fragrance—and maybe just above finding the best hair stylers—guys really do their due diligence when hunting for the best men’’s grooming devices.
And so, this article is a roundup of roundups: Our various articles (many with video companions) for the best devices, like electric shavers, beard trimmers, razor, hair clippers, manscapers, hair dryers, and even combs. We’ll add more as we make ‘em, but in the meantime, have at our lineup below.
And thanks for trusting me with your purchases; I love testing these tools out so that you get the best value for your money, no matter which budget you’re working with.

The Best Beard Trimmers
We’ve got a bunch of picks across multigroomers, beard/shave combos, travel friendly, long lasting, and beyond (and budget friendly picks, at that). Read our beard trimmer roundup here, as well as our dedicated spotlight on the Philips Norelco Multigroom 9000. (We’ve even got a video/article comparing the roster of Multigrooms and the beloved Braun All-in-One Series 9.) You can also see the picks from Blind Barber’s Eric Becker, in a separate video we made.
Check out our tested picks for the best beard trimmers.
The Best Electric Shavers
Electric shavers come with a bit of a lesson: You need to know the difference between foil shavers and rotary shavers. You can learn about it in our e-razor roundup, then dive into our picks for the best foil razors and the best rotary razors. And spoiler alert, my current reigning favorite is the Braun Series 9 PRO electric razor. We also did a mini review of the closest-shaving rotary razor, the Philips Norelco i9000 Prestige Ultra. And one brand I like that isn’t in those roundups (it launched after the fact), isthe pair of Laifen foil shavers, which are innovative and making big gains in the space. Lastly, check out Eric Becker’s shaver picks as a professional barber, for the at-home user.

The Best Manscapers / Body Groomers
Whether you want a dedicated body grooming device, a further-dedicated pube trimmer, or even just an all-in-one tool that does beard, back, and beyond: our roundup has the top picks across the board. And my all time favorite (from Panasonic) is an ergo-friendly masterpiece.

Or rather, this link will take you to the right place, for our review of the best men’s hair clippers. There are budget friendly picks, barber-caliber devices, and multigroomers for the multitaskers and simplifiers.

The Best Razors for Men
We’ll soon have some videos and articles on the best men’s razors, across cartridge and safety blades alike. But in the meantime, you can read or watch Blind Barber’s own Eric Becker make his favorite picks below. We’ve got a few odes to some of our favorites, too: The Supply Single Edge SE Razor (and our comparison against the Supply SE Max), as well as the fantastic Harry’s PLUS cartridge razor. We’ve also got a tutorial on how to do a straight razor shave.
