BRAUN SERIES 9 - BEST SHAVER? FULL REVIEW UNBOXING AND HEAD SHAVE 

Proud bald head here since my 20s. This channel has changed the way I view being bald. Keep up the good work. Bald and proud.

I remember my father called me crazy spending so much for a shaver. I lended my shaver out to him one time and a week later he bought the same one. Been using it for over 5 years now and I can’t live without it anymore.

This channel helped me out with going bald at 22 yrs old. I was in the bathroom contemplating if i should shave my head for like 2 hrs. This channel gave me the confidence i needed 100% and im super grateful for this channel. You help a lot of men.

Your hair is way too long for foil shavers. I’m a barber 💈 and foil shavers are used when your hair is 1 to 2 days growth from bald 👨🏻‍🦲. Use your Wahl Balding clipper first, then use the Braun for best results. The fact that it cut your hair at this length shows how good the Braun is. Great video though!! This product is amazing for people with sensitive skin and shave their head everyday or every other day. I’d love to see you test out the brand new Babyliss FX3 Ferrari foil shaver.

I'm from Argentina, and thanks to your videos I was able to accept the fact that I was going bald and encourage myself to shave my head. Thanks!

Honestly this is a luxury product..It makes shaving fun, instead of a daily chore. The price is high but definitely worth it if you can afford it. Quality bit of kit.

Wow, i just bought one like a week ago and was afraid it was not going to work like my walh. You just made my girlfriend super happy that we got a good head shaver and not a waste of money. Ive been shaving my head since 1995 and still looking for the best head shaver. 😊

I bought this shaver after your review. I used it to shave my head for the first time recently. It is an excellent shaver. I do recommend using it dry as it provides a super close shave.

I use my old Braun Pulsonic series 7 and it’s a champ. Doesn’t beat my Leaf, but it’s great. I need to upgrade to the series 9 at some point but my series 7 is awesome. Braun says to replace the blades every 18 months and honestly mine have lasted a lot longer than that. And I shave my head daily. Also, quick tip, put the plastic cover back on the cleaning cartridge and it’ll prevent the fluid from evaporating between cleanings.

Thanks mate! I was looking forward to you reviewing the Braun Series 9. I'm currently using my older Series 5 for head shaves, but it doesn't cut nearly as fast. I tried razor shaving, but it doesn't work too well with little imperfections or moles on my head.

I love these reviews you do. Please keep them coming, brother.🙏

You're my favorite youtuber! you don't blabber nonsense and seek attention \m/ Thanks to you, i'm embracing bald look now. I was ashamed earlier and was stressing balding for years... started balding at 20 and now i'm 24 and shaving every other day.

Thanks for the review! I just bought a Series 9 Sport last month at Costco on sale for $160 after having used a friends Series 9 pro. Love it and it's so much easier on my face since my skin is sensitive to blades. I rinse the razor after every use and the cleaning dock once a week. I think you'll get more use from the cleaning cartridge by pre rinsing your razor (keeps most of the hairs out of the cartridge) and putting the cap back on so it doesn't evaporate. Haven't stepped up yet to try in on my head

Sick of going to the barbers so bought my first ever shaver. Braun Series 5 ( model 5140 - great price point ), was really hesitant and had to wait a couple of days before deciding to go for it. Wow! am super impressed honestly after using. Really clean and smooth shave, no irritation whatsoever ( dry shave ). Very easy instructions with handling/cleaning and replaceable head cartridge are priced affordably.

Thanks for the review! I've tried pretty much every device (electric or manual blades) available that you could shave your head with and Braun shavers have always produced the best results. Blades, even safety razors, take forever and give me irritation and clippers just don't cut close enough. Braun shavers (I've used s3, s7, and s9) are my absolute go-to. Cheers!

Yeah, that sucker is pretty loud. Mine came in last night and I wasn’t expecting a $300 shaver to be so loud. I honestly don’t mind it being made out of plastic. It feels surprisingly good despite that fact. I bought this to replace my cartridge razor. It did a good job around my cheeks and parts of my neck. It definitely had a hard time getting those tricky spots which I had to clean up with a razor. I’m happy with it after the first use which was wet. I think next time I’m going to shaving with my face dry to see if it will get those tricky spots better.

As a bald dude who enjoys shaving his head this is a great vid. All your videos are Great Harry. Keep on the good work!

The main man at it again! 🤝 - Keep up the good work mate!

I sincerely appreciate your honesty. Thank you so much for keeping us informed and helping us make a better choice. Greetings from Mexico 🤟🏻👨🏼‍🦲

Great to see another video man. I’ve just reconnected with this channel and I’m loving it.

Good video, thank you. It'll helped me for a fast starting for sure! , I'm just waiting one from Amazon 👍 Happy new year from Spain!

This is the best review i have seen about this shaver, you talked about the maintenence, prices and show how it works, really nice review.

I have had the Braun Series 9 for a couple of years and it is an excellent shaver. Only used it on my face until a few months ago. But gosh it does a pretty dang good job on the head too. Couldn’t ask for much better without doing a wet shave. Also, if you just do a quick pass everyday you’ll get really good at using it and it won’t take long at all.

So I just got one of these a few days ago and so far this thing is amazing. Like you said, on the top of my head it feels like it's as close as a stick razor. On the sides though, it feels a little rough but there is no stubble visible. It cost me about $300 US, but I think it's totally worth it. The razor is pretty loud but there are a bunch of blades working in that little thing. And the cleaning/charging station is so handy, but it's loud in its own way. It turns on the razor to clean it, except the sound is a little muffled because it has the liquid flowing through it. I would totally buy it again. If you can come up off the money, it's really worth it. No other electric razor gets as close or is as convenient with the little cleaning/charging station as the Series 9 is.

i would like to thank you Harry i started thinning out in my early 20s and your Channel has really helped me Understand their is more Important things in life then Hair and some Men have no choice but to accept their going bald and it comes from God and you have to just try and be happy what you have got plus their is loads of Beard styles you can do since we have no hair that it always a good thing to look forward too.

Appreciate the video! Just went out and bought one for myself because of this video!

Thank you for making this video. 🙏

I have been using this 9th series for more than year and I can say that it's the best thing I have tried! I was tired of buying razors, foams and shaving my face every three days. Bought this lovely Braun and forgot about those things. The one negative remark if you sweat during shaving your head it will start irritating the skin..

It never occurred to me to use my Braun 9 on top of my head too. I went ahead and tried this out and had similar results. I got a closer shave with less irritation that I do with my pitbull skullshaver. This shaver did a much better job at the back than my skullshaver, I suspect because the blades fit better in the creases at the back of my head. This shaver struggles with longer hair but for some reason it also struggles with neck hairs, I think because neck hair doesn't stand up like the rest of the beard.

Buy it. This channel made me comfortable with shaving my head but that isn’t why you should buy this product. I started with the Wahl Balding clippers. Great product, however if you are shaving when you are first waking up, or in a hurry you will get badly knicked by the clippers. In addition the clippers are heavy. I love the long chord but it often gets in the way when you’re trying to maneuver them around your ears. I moved onto the pitbull gold pro. Those were okay. You have to keep them at max charge for the best shave because the power fades fast. They also didn’t get as close as the balding clippers. I also felt like I had to replace the blades more often than the manufacturer suggested because they felt like they dulled quickly. Next I tried the old Gillette fusion pro glide I used in HS to shave my face. It worked and felt great. The shave was really close, easily the closest I’ve had and therefore the best. However, “bad” cartridges were common. I got cut up no matter how slow I went because the blades weren’t sharpened properly at the factory. The razor offers a close shave but again if you don’t go super slow even with good cartridges you’ll get cut up. I was also more prone to irritation and razor burn with the Gillette than the other products mentioned, even after trying other shave gels and after shave lotions. The series 9 is expensive, especially during this recession. But it provides a massive quality of life improvement. No mess, no hair everywhere. It provides a shave almost as close as the Gillette for me. While not as close as the Gillette, the shave it provides leaves my scalp feeling super smooth. I love how easy it is to use and I can go over my head with it quickly without getting cuts, razor burn or other irritation. I don’t have to use shaving cream and clean up is minimal. Blow the pieces clean toss in the base station press a button and it’s ready for tomorrow. Well worth the price if you can manage. Again I owe this channel gratitude for the confidence it gave me years ago to do the first shave, and now for this great product.

I have the same one, its just loud LOL Works like the champ now I've had it for about a year.

There are a lot of remarks about cleaning the razor. I've used the S5 for decades. I start under my nose and then use a sprayer bottle with 70% isopropyl alcohol to lubricate the blades. Do not breath the isopropyl as this is dangerous. Any liquid will help lube the blades and give a closer shave. The alcohol kills bacteria and dissolves oils so this makes rinse cleaning the shave head a snap under the water faucet when you're done. The blades last much longer and work better. Use a moisturizer after shaving with a sunscreen if you're smart. I do not ever push the head into my skin as this is what results in the foil failing. When that happens you need a new one right then and there. It also hurts when the super thin metal catches and cuts into your face. After shaving I simply rinse the blades under the faucet and let them air dry. Failing to keep the razor germ free will eventually result in skin problems as will as the performance dropping noticeably. As the blades get worn they still will get the job done but they take a lot more passes to do it. When the shaving takes too long get a new blade and foil. Save the old foil just because it is still good and you may well need it one day. I usually shave with the cord in. I have never needed to replace the batteries and they last a few weeks on vacation trips without a problem. If I used it cordless all the time the cycles would have done them in years ago. Great razor and lasts forever once you figure out how to use it to not stress the foil into failure and keep it clean. I am curious now about the top end model, so why not get one? PS: I tried Norelco many years ago and it didn't work for me. Remington was a non starter back then too. Gillette blades are designed to dull fast so they get a thumbs down, but you need blades too for some spots and have them in the drawer. Women's blades (venus) cut you less and are just as sharp. They will not get in close to your nose though because the blades do not go far enough to the side ends of the cartridge. Good luck shaving. If I could get the damn thing lasered off for good I sure would. Otherwise this is the best alternative going.

This is by far and away the best head shaver period. Worth every penny!

I have one and it’s the best shaver I’ve ever had it’s incredible thank you for the video

Very good review. Thanks. I just purchased the Braun Series 9 Pro.

The Braun has a "straight" clipper, found on the backside of the shaver, for cutting longer whiskers and shaping sideburns, mustaches and goatees. This eliminates the need for additional clippers.

shaving my head today! thanks for the inspiration to finally do it

Best clipper by far for me is the Babyliss Pro super motor skeleton, I haven't even zero gapped it yet and it cuts super short, you should review it.

Great work man, thanks. I'll stick with the Surkers but really enjoyed that in-depth look.

I've never paid over £35 for any clippers and always had a good trim. I get many in sales and would recommend most budget ranges. Most have a 1 hour charge core or cordless. I liked the review and this isn't a negative response to the video, just advice.

Bought one today after shaving my head for 15 years. What a shaver. Incredible head shave. Ploughed through 4 days of growth. Little note - it does come with some charge but it won't power up for the first time until it's been connected to the charger. Might be the best gift I've ever bought for myself.

This will be my next buy,,, I use Babyliss Pro Foil Shaver to keep ontop of my bald dome every 2 days it works fine... To many soppy people giving negative reviews on amazon about this,, it did your head fine and that's good enough for me 👌🏾

With an eletric shaver you need to give at least two weeks of usage in order for it to feel good at the face. Once your skin adapts, you never feel the need of razor again...i use a razor once in a while just to remember the feeling of the cream and the way the cut feels but eletric is now the right way to go :P I dont need to shave my head but I do it once in a while to change style and motivate my Dad who has lost his hair to keep his shaved and your channel is a great source of information and inspiration! Keep it going! Cheers from Portugal

Harry, Thank you for this video. I always wondered how the Braun Series 9 fared for the price.

i must admit im loving this braun, i go over my head every morning while browsing youtube, (no mirror required) a bbs smooth dome daily, without any fuss, no mess (no itching hair down the back), no cuts, no irritation, quick tap on the sink of the cartridge, quick brush of the shaver.(you dont have to but the cleaning solution will last longer) then drop it in the clean and renew for a lemon clean shave the day after, and it smells amazing, and its like having a new shaver daily. total luxury, I'm going to do a review myself, after a couple of months usage!

Thanks for the review, made my mind to just go with the leaf razor.

i came in this video after i decided to get me a new braun shaver. i got ma first braun shaver at 18 years old. Actually a gift from ma dad when i first went to university. i am 38 now and the braun just stop working. I think 20 years are ok. Instead ma brother optid for the phillips ones with the 3 circle things... he changed like 4 at the time i used only 1 Braun. About the video nice job and helped me to see the shaver it self... Now about u ,it looks like u never had a shaver before... they all sound like that they are machines they suppose to sound that... and second every few passes open the clip and remove the hair bro.. its not a dust bin that can take kilos.... its just a tiny space u shaved a whole head how u expected all the hair to be inside... Anyways this is the best Shaving blade ever made. u will have it for 20 years... atleast mine lasted for so much. hope the new one series 9 i am ordering now on Gold color will stay alive for another 20.... happy shaving to all

Great Braun real head shave and face shave promo and video!

Awesome content - more of these please!!

Bo electric razor I've been using gillette for about years recently switched to the safety razor about a month ago to save on waste wish I would have done it earlier such a game changer

Good reviews and tips. Good quality device. Anyway, for the face as for the head, if one prefers simplicity/minimalism, a good 4/5 blades razor + a conditioner, remains the best and cheapest way to do it, in my opinion

Hi! First things first. Thanks for the great videos! Really helpful stuff!. Wanted yo change from trimming to a closer cut, but dont want to go for shaving. Initially I thought buying a Braun Series 9 (thanks for the review video, by the way!) but seems too close to shaving. Another option you may recommend? Thanks!!!

Really enjoyed the video! You should do more videos on reviewing other foil shavers!

If you want to clean out the cartridge, put it in water and turn it on. I have this electric razor and I love it. It certainly doesnt handle long beard hair so you have to use something else to get it down to the stubble and then it cleans up very nicely. Loved your review on it.

Well on course to that 100k subscribers 💯

I love my series 9. I’ve had it for nearly 5 months using it to shave my head every other day. The indicator for the head is still on 5/5 so it’ll last a lot longer than 8 months. Longer than the 18 months Braun recommend I reckon. Tip: clean the excess out of the head before using the cleaning station and take the cartridge out of the station and put the plastic lid back on after. I got 3 months out of my first one. £5 each over 3 months isn’t bad... and £40 over 18 months for the head. Cheaper than wet shaving.

Been slowly losing my hair since my 20’s like most people. I was always nervous about losing my hair straight down the middle and that’s exactly what happened. It wasn’t bad enough I was losing my hair but it had to go in the most ridiculous way. I’m not that self conscious about it anymore but when editing some of my videos I’m noticing it’s mostly gone on top so I’ve been looking around at options to shave it all off. Been buzzing it for quite a few years so it’s not a huge jump but I think it might be time to make it. That shaver looks like a president nice option.

I just bought series 9 pro, just wow, best shaver I ever had. I tried everything, nothing comes closer. Best decision ever, a bit expensive, but in the long run is the best.

I have been contemplating shaving my head this channel gave me the confidence to go ahead and do it I'm very glad that I did should saving a lot of money on shampoo Gonna be Kratos for Halloween

U did a damn great job 👏! Well done man

Harry, is it as good as the Phillips Oneblade?...

I got one of these without the charging station. You can clean it with hand soap in the sink also. I don't use it now. But I agree this machine is awesome. But somewhat expensive to maintain. I have thick hair, and I needed to shave every day, so my head got very sensitive. I shave my head with a safty-razor now. 👍 But I should probably switch to a BALD Leaf Shave Razor?

Would be awesome to see a review on the babyliss pro foil shaver fx02! Heard some good things about it and it’s often compared to the series 9:) keep up the good work! // huge fan of yours from Sweden

I've had this for about 2 or three years. love it for my head. I never use an electric for my face

I bought the Braun Series 9 and made this review to help anyone out there thinking of buying this shaver make a more informed decision before spending a considerable amount of money. I hope it helps 👍 TIME STAMPS 00:00 Introduction 01:45 Braun Series 9 Unboxing 07:02 Braun Series 9 Head Shave 13:54 Braun Series 9 Dry Face Shave 15:29 Braun Series 9 Wet Shave 16:16 Braun Series 9 Clean & Charge Station 18:27 Braun Series 9 Review & Final Thoughts

Great review as always !! Did you have any razor bumps or redness the next day ?? . Many thanks

Awesome review and much needed considering the price! Are use the Remington cordless barber clippers for 20 quid, they are awesome I would love for you to review them!?

Thanks for the review and kind regards from Spain

What a mad bit of kit 👏🏼👏🏼🔥

Better than the remington rx5 you reviewed pal? I am using that at the moment. Love it to be honest and if that packs in at £50 could see me buying another.. Or should I pay more for this??

GREAT review, thanks!! As a quick tip....electrics work best on a 1 or 2 day growth of stubble. They're less irritating to your skin, and the shave is closer and takes less time. I've been using electrics on my head and face for over 15 years... and in my opinion the Braun series 9 and the Panasonic Arc-5 are the best head shavers ever made! They're both outstanding!!

I Had a Braun series 3 for almost 15 years before it finally went a few months ago. I've saved so much money by not going to a barber through the years that I decided to splurge and get the latest and greatest from the brand that I obviously swore by at this point. Let me just say, this thing is fantastic! I think you need to slow down your strokes on both the head and face you will be surprised how much better it works, and you will actually finish faster. Also, you missed an opportunity to use the trimmer on your beard, it works great when your hair is a little longer.

I once had an electric for face and it was horrible :P but you know I bought something possible for my eastern european conditions if I remember correctly for your money it would be something like 30-40 $. Since august I have been using Safety and Straight Razors and i highly reccomend it for everyone for face as well as for head.

Great Video! Thanks for the great review :)

Thanks for your vidéo. From France

I just like every video before watching because I know I won’t be disappointed 🙂

THIS IS 1000% worth the price (I bought it on sale for $200). I’ve tried so many electric shavers and this one is by far the best. What a game changer. I dry shave every morning and it comes out smooth every time, takes about 2-3 mins. Thank me later 💪

Oh damn that looks very satisfying

Have a review of the razorpit. I got one off amazon and I'd say I'm getting maybe 15 - 20 nice head shaves from each cartridge now

I just got this for Christmas, along with Afta Pre-Electric shave, I'm getting as close as a razor. The downside to that pre-electric shave is that it can smell really strong and "old-school", but to solve that problem, I just shower afterwards.

Hi man thanks for all your videos i find them very helpful ! Just want to ask if there shaver is better then pitbull platinum pro ? I m looking for the best shaver to shave my head Thank you in advance for any replay

Dude use the accessory first to cut longer hair. It works better if you shave every day and your hair is really short.

Use the #94 shaver heads that fit the Series 9 Pro instead of the #92 heads that come with the #93xx Brauns and you'll have better long-hair performance. All S9 heads are interchangable.

I bought Remingotn RX5 because of your past video and I'm very happy of it despite the fact that it is quite annoying to clean the razor (and it needs to be cleaned to shave very well). Now you have to try one of the best Philips to compare it with this Braun Series 9 :)

You convinced me to buy

A 7 head Chinese cheapo rotary is much better and quicker for pre-shaving. In fact, if you're not fussy, it'll do as your only shaver. Next step up is to follow a 7 head shaver with a 3 head rotory Norelco. Nothing beats the Braun for closeness and for getting under the nose and under the lip. Yes, I use three different shavers. Total time: Less than 5 minutes. As good as a blade shaving against the grain? Of course, not, just like the man says. But will the Braun get things CLOSE ENOUGH? Absolutely!…..unless you're the groom at a wedding. In that case, you'll wanna use the blade. I hardly ever use a blade any more and I've been shaving for more than 50 years. Btw, my Braun is an 8 yr old Series 7, but all the Brauns give a similar shave, and they're much better than Panasonic. The only issue with the Brauns is the cost of shaver head replacement, which is a total ripoff. Oh, and if you wanna keep rotary blades sharp, here's a tip: A dab of toothpaste pushed onto each head. Squish it in there. Turn on the shaver for 30 seconds. Done. Wash out the toothpaste. Sharp as new.

Thank you for saving me so much money. Remington Shortcut for me.

Hi mate! Thanks for the great review video. Ermm what camera and the audio microphone called you are using to record this video if you don't mind asking please?

Perfect review for a baldie like me. Thank you.

I use electric razors they work good. I’m on finastride and other stuff I’m 24 years old. Going on 25 Harry what point did you just give up on male pattern baldness. Should I take finastride my dr said just watch out for side affects let me know Harry

My head shaver was £27 off amazon. I have used it for 6 months. It's great! This price . Bloody hell!

Yown finally thanks Harry

Cheers Harry great review! Is this the one you saw the rock use in a previous vid?

Great content bro! I wanna know your take on Wahl 5-star Finalé… thanks a lot👍🏻

Seems nice for a head shave! I like to shave my face with a DE safety razor but I really don't like doing that on my head. This seems like a good investment for the head. Been looking for a decent way to shave my head.

I have the exact hair style as you 😆 Bought a series 7 just before xmas on offer for £120 or £130 including the cleaning station, use mine on the old bonse aswell and it's a fantastic bit of kit!!!!

Just picked up one of these from argos @ £210. Came fully charged used a cube pre-shave as shave cream and have to say well impressed, almost a bbs shave. Have slight neck rash from wet shaving,whatever i do/use i still get a neck rash. So, gonna give this shaver a month trial usig nothing else and see if it stops rashing but so far first use no irritation, but will keep using some kind of product with it to help it glide.

Hey man, i like all the videos. I just got the gromie baldie pro. Have u tried that one yet? Let me know.

Bro buy trimmer,andis t ouliner,babyliss skeleton fx,and go first with trimmer,it goes down nearly to skin,then go over with this shaver it will go trow like a butter

Great video, thanks for the review. I'd save your money and use a razor....a good one! For me, nothing beats the GILLETTE FUSION5 RAZOR BLADES.
