Blade type
View more details.
Foil shavers use oscillating blades under a perforated foil to cut the hair and are available with single, dual or multiple foil heads. Rotary shavers use two or three circular rotating heads to lift and cut the hair. We haven't found a difference in ease of use or performance, based on blade type.
