The electric shaver has long been a useful accessory for quick and effective hair removal and facial care. With its help, you can put your face in order in a matter of minutes, trim your temples, mustache and beard. By its design, an electric shaver is an electromechanical device powered by a network or batteries.
Instructions
Step 1
The main element of an electric shaver is a knife block equipped with mesh or circular knives. The moving part of the device is powered by an electric motor powered by a household network or from the batteries built into the shaver. All parts of the electric shaver are enclosed in a plastic case, which has an ergonomic shape that allows you to comfortably hold the device in your hand.
Step 2
For aligning the temples and sideburns, as well as for trimming the beard and mustache, the electric shaver can be equipped with a trimmer - a built-in folding or pull-out unit. This additional system takes up almost no space, but increases the functionality of the electric shaver. You can bring the trimmer into working position with a slight movement of your hand.
Step 3
A pair of knives is used as a working body of an electric shaver. One of them, immobile, when shaving tightly adheres to the skin. A movable knife, which rotates or makes translational movements, cuts off hairs that penetrate through the holes of the fixed part of the knife block. Usually, such a unit is easily detached from the shaver, which allows you to clean the device from dirt and, if necessary, replace the knives.
Step 4
Rotary shavers are equipped with heads that rotate in a circle. The number of such heads can be different; there are razors with two, three and even five rotating elements. Each head has numerous channels or holes. The hairs pass through them, which are cut off with the rapid rotation of the working body. Rotary shavers are believed to be better suited for sensitive skin and hard-to-reach areas.
Step 5
The head of the razor mesh type has the appearance of a flexible metallized strip with very small holes. Such a mesh covers the knife block, the elements of which make frequent oscillatory movements from side to side. In these models of electric razors, the hairs are cut in a reciprocating motion rather than a rotational motion. The best models of electric mesh shavers are not inferior in shaving quality to rotary devices.
Step 6
Using an electric razor is very convenient, but some skill is still required. To shave off the hairs, you need to make circular or translational movements, gently pressing the working part of the tool to the skin. One of the advantages of an electric razor is the ability to "dry" shave and save on gels, creams or foams, which are indispensable when using a razor.
