Braun Series 9 PRO+ Electric Shaver for Men, with 5 Pro Shave Elements & Precision Long Hair ProTrimmer, Charging Stand, Wet & Dry Electric Razor with 60min Runtime, 9517s Galvano Silver

Compré la Braun Series 9 Pro+ esperando precisamente lo que más promociona: un afeitado al ras con mínima irritación para piel sensible. Lamentablemente, en mi experiencia fue exactamente lo contrario. Probé prácticamente todas las formas recomendadas de uso: * en seco * en seco después de bañarme * en húmedo * con crema de afeitar * húmedo después de bañarme Y el resultado siempre fue el mismo: irritación importante, sensación de ardor y sensibilidad durante el resto del día e incluso al dormir. Si me afeito únicamente hacia abajo, la irritación disminuye un poco, pero el afeitado queda disparejo y muchos vellos no los corta bien. Para lograr un acabado realmente uniforme hay que pasarla “a contrapelo” o hacia arriba, y ahí es donde se vuelve muy agresiva con la piel. El ardor posterior es bastante fuerte incluso usando after shave para piel sensible. Honestamente esperaba mucho más considerando que es una de las rasuradoras eléctricas más caras del mercado. En mi caso ha sido menos cómoda y menos efectiva que modelos más económicos. Quizá funcione para personas con otro tipo de piel o barba, pero si tienes piel sensible o tendencia a irritación, recomendaría probarla antes de invertir lo que cuesta. En mi experiencia personal, ha sido una compra muy decepcionante.

I picked this up after misplacing my old shaver during a recent bathroom renovation, so this was my first upgrade in quite a while. I’ll admit I had a little sticker shock at first, but this feels like one of those tools where the quality shows up pretty quickly. Out of the box, everything was organized and straightforward. Setup is quick and simple. I do like that it comes with a stand instead of just a cord, so it has a good resting spot on the counter. For the price, I was a little surprised it didn’t include some oil for the shaver head. In hand, it feels solid and is easy to handle, including around tighter areas. Performance is great. I have a fairly heavy beard, and most electric shavers take a while to get a close shave, especially after a few days. This morning I had about four days of growth, and it handled it better than I expected. I only needed the trimmer in a couple of spots since the main shaver head did most of the work on its own. It still took a few extra passes, but it was faster and closer than my previous shaver. Cleaning was also simple and easy. Battery life has been strong so far, it’s pretty quiet during use, and I like having the option to go wet or dry. I’m not on a strict daily shave schedule, and this shaver can handle my heavy beard. Definitely an upgrade from what I was using before.

It gives an excellant shave with no irritation i have sensitive skin and have no issues with this shaver. I have had 4 various electric shavers in the past and finally found one thats worth spending the money on.

I had a Series 9 and I’m sure the pro will work just as well. I haven’t used it yet but will over the next few days. It does seem to me a little lighter than the Series 9 I had before. The hefty weight made it feel a little more balanced and quality. I don’t see where the head changed at all so it should remove the hair just fine. The Series 9 was a close to using a wet razor as you could get so I’m hopeful this pro will do the same.

Probably the best electric shaver available, but still feels like there is room to improve, for instance regarding the shaving efficiency and the self-clening efficacy when using the cleaning station.
