Bottoms up Raise your cocktail game with bar accessorie­s to get the party started TECH Technology: Braun 7-in-1 Grooming Kit

-

Exactly what it says on the tin. The Braun 7-in-1 kit is geared for beard trimming, hair clipping and body grooming.

Gone are the days when the only options for taming unwanted or wayward hair was either to risk it DIY-style using a pair of blunt scissors and some nifty manual razor work or queue up on a Saturday morning for the profession­al tools that only a barber could provide.

The trimming kit comes with a range of accessorie­s, including a precision comb with five cut lengths ranging from 3mm to 11mm. A long beard comb provides five cut settings for longer hair ranging from 13mm to 21mm. Both these combs change cut length in 2mm increments.

Completing the list of accessorie­s is a precision trimmer and a Gillette Fusion ProGlide manual razor for close shaves. A complete runtime of 60 minutes before it needs to be recharged and the built-in automatic worldwide voltage adjustment system means it is ideal for use away from home.

The device is simple to use and works well with no catching or pulling of the hairs that can cause irritation on sensitive skin. Braun also states that the blades should stay sharp for the duration of its life, which is a confidence-boosting feature.

Replenishi­ng the battery can take eight hours so keeping it topped up is essential.

Those who want a fast, comfortabl­e and hassle-free trim.

Regular trips to the barber remain an important and integral part of your social calendar.
