In the end, experts say there's no single, definitive way to determine which type of electric shaver is best for you. Some reviews suggest that rotary shavers work better for men with denser hair and rounder faces, while foil shavers are better suited for men with lighter hair and thin faces. But ultimately, the decision boils down to personal preference.

In fact, the panelists that experts invite to test their shavers sometimes can't agree on the best models for this very reason. When they disagree, the reviewing magazine's editors usually group top picks by the hair and skin type they're deemed best for shaving.
