not for me [SEP] i am not used to an electric shaver it pulled my hairs on the dry shave but i may have not done it right because it was the first time i ever used an electric shaver if you needed it more for trimming before getting a close shave this would be good so if you use electric shavers to replace razor blade shaving it was not as close as i would have liked however if you use only electric shavers to trim before the final shave i suppose this one would do it again not an expert
