The weather is heating up and for many of us, hair removal is not only a part of the cooling down process, but the summer grooming process too. For men, this often means it’s time to bid farewell to surplus fuzz. Whether you’re looking to trim or remove a bushy beard, take a little off the top, or go silky smooth top to bottom, there are a number of at-home hair removal devices to help.

From trimmers and grooming kits to male IPL devices, hair removal for men is easy. Here are some of the best hair-removing devices on the market:

Philips Multigroom
This Multigroom series 7000 14-in-1 Trimmer by Philips is the ultimate groomer for men. A precise and versatile trimmer, it features 14 premium tools to help you achieve unique style, from head to toe. Enjoy maximum precision with DualCut blades, which sharpen as they go. It is also showerproof and has a no-slip rubber grip for improved comfort and control. There’s also the Philips Multigroom Series 3000 9-in-1 Trimmer, featuring self-sharpening blades and nine styling tools to trim and style your facial hair, and clip your hair, with precision.

Wahl Grooming Kit
From touch-ups to full beard and hair grooming, the Wahl Stainless Steel Waterproof Lithium-Ion Stainless Steel Grooming Kit is a hard-working hair remover. There are four interchangeable head attachments, including the ultra-close T-Blade for a smoother cutting finish, and the vertical trimmer for taming ear, nose and eyebrow hair. There are 11 guide combs, equating to 34 cutting lengths, with improved durability and performance. The combs are also 35 per cent stronger than the previous design and have metal clips for enhanced durability.

Remington Quick Groom
Get the job done quickly and easily with the Remington Quick Groom Body & Back Groomer. Trim right down to 0.2mm or use one of the four additional clip-on combs to personalise hair length (up to 12mm). The dual-side blades with comfort tips make bi-directional trimming fast and simple, and the detachable extension handle puts an end to those impossible-to-reach areas of your back. Ergonomically designed, the clever Remington Quick Groom is also waterproof and features cordless operation for added convenience.

Panasonic 3-in-1 Body Groomer
To deal with hair anywhere, the Panasonic 3-in-1 Body Groomer has you covered… or uncovered, as it were. Specially designed to access hard-to-reach areas, the trimmer tool is gentle on skin, while shaving body hair down to just 0.1mm. The trimmer’s protective blades catch unwanted hair and prevent skin irritation. Better yet, the length attachments allow for a precise trim where required and the wet/dry feature allows for mess-free grooming.

IPL devices* 
Commonly referred to as IPL, Intense Pulsed Light technology is a popular hair removal method with long-lasting results. IPL devices work by applying gentle pulses of light to heat the hair follicle and prevent regrowth. Once an in-salon luxury, there are now a number of fantastic at-home IPL devices on the market, including the Braun Silk Expert Pro 5 2.0. Designed for both men and women, the 2.0 model works twice as fast as its predecessor, with both legs easily treated in under five minutes. Clinically accredited as skin-safe by the Skin Health Alliance, the system works on any area of the body and features 10 intensity modes to suit a wider range of skin tones.

From SmoothSkin, the Pure IPL Long Term Hair Removal Device helps deliver permanent hair reduction in just four weeks. The system’s three operating modes allow for a personalised and comfortable treatment, while the skin contact sensor helps ensure that the process is a safe one.

The Philips Lumea Advanced IPL Long term Hair Removal is another top model, thanks to its design, features and results. Developed with dermatologists, the Lumea has been proven to reduce hair growth by at least 85 per cent in as few as three treatments. The five light settings offer added control, while the two motion settings – slide and flash, and stamp and flash – enables easy application no matter the surface.
