Remington's Diamond of a Beard Trimmer

Advantages: Great performance and features. Easy to use.
Disadvantages: None to speak of.

...INTRODUCTION I went through a phase of sporting a goatee, but was finding it increasingly difficult to keep it tidy and well maintained. The problem with normal, bog standard, manual razors is that it?s very easy to accidentally cut into your beard, forcing you to adjust the other side to keep it symmetrical. If you make enough mistakes, your goatee starts shrinking and frankly, looking ridiculous. Much to my wife and daughter?s despair, I decided to make a long term commitment to facial hair by investing in a proper beard trimmer. With Nectar points to burn, Argos was the obvious destination, and I ended up in investing in Remington?s MB 320C ? for no other reason than it sounded fancy and it looked good. IN THE BOX The trimmer comes in a zip up travel pouch with plenty of room to store the unit and its various...

Remington PG400 Hair Trimmer

Advantages: Well built, value for money
Disadvantages: Lack of battery level indicator

...So far I have had 2 of these beard trimmers, the first one had to be returned within the first week due to a faulty charger connector, however the current one is perfect. The item feels well built and nice to hold, unlike some other similar trimmers I have held that feel cheap and tacky. The battery life is better than I expected although the lack of a battery level indicator means it might die without warning, which isn't ideal if your halfway though a trim and have to put it on charge for another 2 hours before you can finish! It also has other useful features for other body hair removal not just beard trimming, the nose hair trimmer and narrow trimmer are added bonuses as well as the grading plates....

Remington S9810 Genius Straighteners... not so Genius really!

Advantages: A digital display and the option to change the temperature.
Disadvantages: Poor quality and a horribly expensive price tag.

...I must admit I am a big fan of GHD hair straighteners. Ever since my Mum bought me a pair of them last Christmas I would never go back to any other brand. However I am a member of the Amazon Vine programme and I received a pair of these Remington Genius straighteners for free. Genius Straighteners? Remington state that if you want cutting edge technology that?s usually found in hair salons, then these are the straighteners for you. In fact, Celebrity Hairdresser of the Year, Steven Goldsworthy, goes as far as saying these are the Ferrari of all hair straighteners! After reading this I was certainly intrigued, could they really be as good as they sound? The plates on these straighteners have the most advanced Ceramic coating, vital if you want a smooth finish with your straighteners, rather than a static look. They also...

Remington Fuzz-Away.

Advantages: Simple and easy to use and works well .
Disadvantages: None.

...What a great little gadget The Remington Fuzz-Away is, I remember the first one I got as a pressie about 15 years ago, I'm now on my third one due to the fact that the first one I owned was stepped on and the second was borrowed and I did'nt get it back! This little battery operated gadget is used for shaving off those unsightly bobbles that appear on your clothes, I've used it with very good results on socks, jumpers, tops, trousers and jogging bottoms, But it can also be used on cushions,curtains and bedding ect and isn't just limited to clothing. The Fuzz-away is simply a low voltage battery operated fabric shaver which is small and lightweight and fits nicely in the hand. It has a perforated mesh head which is glided back and forth over the fabric until the bobbles are removed. The bobbles are removed by...

Review of Remington Fuzz-Away

Remington HC365

Advantages: Rechargeable, ease of use, no need of oil for blades
Disadvantages: inability of main clipper to trim, trimmer doesn't do good at trimming

...Since I got this clipper i haven't had cause to go for repair. So for one, its durable but depending on how careful you are though. The best attribute would be that I won't need to draw Voltage from my kitchen to my bathroom just to shave-its rechargeble! I am still trying to figure out how many hours it can go before going off. Its con would be the fact that the trimmer included isn't rechargeable as the main clipper. Hence, trimming is less smooth than it is supposed to be. If only the main clipper could be adjusted to be able to trim bears and sideburns then we wouldn't need the trimmer to be rechargeable. Apart from that, it shaves good. Hope this helps...

Review of Remington HC 365 Salon KIT Ceramic

My Convenient Amirose Beauty Trimmer

Advantages: Great for persons with sensitive skin, it is very convenient.
Disadvantages: Having to buy batteries to use it

...I know there is alot of women who have sensitive skin like me, and you cannot shave, wax, pluck everywhere on your body because it will result in irritation, bumps and ingrow hairs all of these are very umcomfortable and itchy to say the least but we put up with this in the name of beauty and making ourselves look more appealing because we just want to look good. With having sensitive skin I was very skepitcal about using the trimmer because I thought it would be similar to shaving, but I was wrong you cannot cut your skin with this. The amirose beauty trimmer is very convenient because it takes no time to use, it is quick and easy, no cords to get in the way. I was surprised how this gets down to the root of the hairs and trim it away. I have had experiences where I am going out and it is near to the time to leave I used the trimmer...

Review of AmiRose Amirose Beauty Trimmer

If you just want a trimmer, don't pay more

Advantages: Great trimmer, cheap, rechargeable, cordless, safe and comfortable to use, good range of trimming lengths
Disadvantages: Shaver is useless, cleaning is a bit fiddly, instructions and packaging are poor

...from the now-short, freshly-cut hair, whereas I hear that shaving or waxing can cause dreadful problems in that department. The trimmer is supposed to be water-resistant and safe to use in the shower. At least, this is what it said on the Amazon page; nothing was mentioned in the instruction booklet, which generally had very little info. So I rang Remington, and was assured that it was indeed safe to use in the shower. Well, it might be safe, but it's a complete nuisance. I tried for a bit and then gave up as I wasn't getting anywhere. The idea had been to reduce mess, but since it wasn't particularly messy to begin with, there wasn't any point. The shaver, on the other hand, didn't work wet *or* dry. I've always heard that electric shavers aren't that good, and this is probably one of the cheapest sort since it's essentially...

Remington WSF3000 - Female Shaver

Advantages: Give a good close shave, even on male body hair, good useage time,
Disadvantages: You need to buy a shaver adapter, no-one warns you about this, Very pink.

...Having recently purchased this lady shaver, after reading various reviews myself, I decided to go for this shaver due to how versitille it is described. Having used it for underarms, it gives a good quality close shave, no stubbles that I've noticed and no irritation, it guides perfectly on the underarms, it also has a trimmer that glides over the skin to trimm the longer hair first, then the shaver will cut the shorter hair. Same applies to doing your legs and give a fantastic close shave. The good test of this female shaver is also that you must take into consideration that mens hair is often more coarse and thicker. Due to medical reason I shave my legs for comfort, and underarms mainly to reduces on those offensive smells we all produce. The other thing you must consider, is that this product is rechargeable, but does not come...

Remington S9000

Advantages: temperature control, smooth plates
Disadvantages: age quickly, confusing controls

...With wavy hair, I haven't got ringlets to iron out, so the lower temperature settings on the Remington S9000 were perfect for me. To perfect styles, the higher temperatures work alright. The Remington S9000s aren't the best straighteners I have ever owned, after a year of use I can tell the difference between brand new and well used; unlike the GHD's I owned for 2 years! The smooth plates are kind to my hair, but with hairspray can become sticky - like most hair straighteners. The Remington S9000s are also quite difficult to programme to the right temperature, a simple 'hot' or 'cool' setting would have worked perfectly, but its like using a clothes iron on your hair! The Remington S9000s are also quite heavy, unlike the GHD's, so even though they straighten out my waves for a good few hours, I wouldn't recommend them to people...

Review of Remington S 9000 Damage Defence

REMINGTON 2X PROTECTION

Advantages: Heat up very fast.
Disadvantages: People assume they're not as good as GHD.

...The particular model that I am refering to in this review, are the Remington S1002 slim ceramic Teflon coated model. I originally bought these because they were only £35, assuming that they would just about do the job, as I really could not justify paying £100 for GHD straighteners. I thought that GHDs were just a craze, I must admit, it is a craze that has lasted, but I feel they have an unjustified high status. After using these straighteners for the first time, Iknew that I had bought the right ones. Myhair is kind of frizzy, but also quite oily, (that's hairdresser talk for greasy!). I have always bought straighteners that included a steamer, to moisturise my hair, which always just made it more frizzy. I grew really fed up of this, and cut it off, myself, into a short bob. Surprise, surprise, not but one month later...
