![]() ![]() There’s an eyebrow guard, two body trimmer guards (3 + 5mm), and four useful hair guards in 4mm increments (4-16mm). Six of them are for beard and stubble, for lengths 1-7mm (one of which offers a sliding 3-7mm grade, should you want one head for the task). That being said, we’re looking at 19 different attachments. Either visit the barber or upgrade to an actual hair clipper with all the necessary attachments. Honestly, you should only use this device as a hair clipper if you’re doing a uniform buzz if you want a fade, then you’re clearly demanding more than this all-in-one can offer. ![]() The two that I think are excessive are both fading hair combs. The Philips touts 21 different heads for a truly customizable device. Still, it’s Wahl with a capital W for the win. If you want true all-in-one for head - shave, trim, detailing, and body - then go with Philips. If you want 95-percent trimming and shaving, it’s Wahl all the way. I was so blinded by my loyalty to Philips that I disregarded the ways in which Wahl’s device could win outright.īut, as you’ll see from the overview below, it really does come down to what you want from your all-in-one device.

Sometimes, more isn’t always more.To find out which all-in-one groomer is best, I assessed the following key components: Philips Norelco All-in-One Multigroom 9000 vs. Philips Norelco All-in-One Multigroom 9000 (Model: MG7770), $87.So I made the space for this one to see if it can dethrone Philips Norelco. ![]() Admittedly, I was familiar with the device but had never elevated it to full rotation. But I’ve heard from many people over the years that Wahl’s Lithium Ion 2.0+ is actually the supreme pick in this field. I’ve been a longtime fan of this one, noting to both friends and readers that it’s an exceptional multi-tasking groomer that covers the core bases thoroughly. I’m scruffy all over, in places I’d sometimes rather not be, so I’m doing a degree of detailing all around my person.Īmong the many devices I keep in rotation is Philips Norelco’s 21-head Multigroom 9000. I grow out my facial hair, trim and shave it down, and do the same with the hair up top. ![]() Unless… unless his multi-groomer can manage the annual task just fine.Īs a grooming editor for nearly a decade, I’ve tested just about every device under the sun. Maybe a guy who buzzes his hair once every June doesn’t want to invest in a full hair clipper - even if it’s inexpensive, it still takes up space, and it makes more sense to just pay for a buzz cut. Maybe they rarely do a clean shave, so having an adequate one is good enough, so long as the beard trimming functions are up to snuff.
