The 8 Best Body Groomers for Men in 2025, Tested by Grooming Editors

Throughout our testing of over 50 body groomers, we found that Panasonic’s GK80 is still the best in class. There’s a lot to love about this groomer. The unique V-shaped blade and ergonomic design allow you to trim even the hardest-to-reach crevices with ease, and the innovative length guard oscillates between 12 different lengths with the turn of a dial, so you never have to even take it off while switching lengths. It delivers one of the most customizable and easiest experiences you could hope for in a body trimmer.

What Else to Consider: The innovative design of this groomer is what sets it apart, but it still takes a bit of a learning curve to figure out the best way to use it on your body. It doesn’t follow the traditional push vs. pull methods that most trimmers do. Because of the V-shaped blade, it’s able to cut in both directions which does make it easier, but if you’re switching from using a more traditional groomer, it can feel weird at first. The adjustable trimmer head is effective, but also bulky and may take some practice getting used to.

It’s convenient to avoid completely switching combs in the middle of a trimming session, but it can also make the trimmer feel a little top-heavy, and some of our testers found it reduces the effectiveness of the blades. The rinse-to-clean capability is great, but we’d advise using it dry instead of wet (that goes for pretty much all of these trimmers, to be honest).

Why We Chose It: For sheer ease of use, the Panasonic Body Groomer GK80 cannot be beat. The innovative design, multi-directional cutting capability, adjustable dial length comb, and v-shaped head all combine to make this easily the most intuitive and efficient body groomer available. Sure, it’s not perfect—it’s slightly better at shaving than trimming, for instance—but its pros exceed its cons by a landslide.

We found in our testing that using it dry is more effective, but it’s just as comfortable shaving your more sensitive groin areas as it is for the chest, arms, and shoulders. And while it is on the expensive side, if you groom or trim your body hair regularly, it’s a solid investment.

Long-Term Testing Notes: We’ve been using this device for over two years, and the effectiveness of the Body Groomer GK80 has not waned. What we have noticed, however, is that it’s better for shaving than trimming. Not that it does a bad job, it’s just that the shaving capability is better than the other trimmers in our arsenal (save for perhaps the Philips Norelco OneBlade) while the trimming capabilities with the adjustable comb are comparable to some others. Still, it remains our go-to trimmer because of how comfortable it is to hold and how nimble it is at cutting hair in hard-to-reach places thanks to the wand design.

Whether you want to mow the lawn completely or just give it a little trim, this groomer does it all. This new, more advanced version is completely waterproof, so you can use it in the shower (Cleanup? Done). Plus, it has a wireless dock that makes charging a breeze. With multiple-length combs and ceramic blades that are gentle on even your most sensitive areas, this is one of the most effective body groomers out there.

What Else to Consider: This is a classic push-style trimmer, which means you push it toward you (usually against the grain) to cut the hair. This is not a bad thing, just good to know going into the purchase in case you are used to a pull-style trimmer. The single adjustable length comb only has a couple of length capabilities, so this trimmer isn’t optimized for a variety of body hair options—it’s really designed to shave down to the skin or leave just a little bit of stubble.

You’re not going to do a bunch of contouring or style changes with this. And while it’s designed specifically for the tender groin area, many users have noted that it can still nick skin pretty easily if you’re not extra careful. The intuitive features, like the LED spotlight to help you see where you are trimming and the new wireless charging dock, are all welcome.

Why We Chose It: If you’re a consistent trimmer of your undercarriage, the Manscaper 5.0 is one of the best tools out there to get the job done effectively. It delivers a clean-shaven look with ease anywhere you want it, and when compared to a traditional razor, it is way more comfortable and less risky, even with the fact that it can still nick skin.

We also love the additional features that many of the other groomers on this list don’t have, like a wireless charging dock and LED spotlight (it may seem gimmicky at first, but trust us, it helps). It’s an intuitively designed device that delivers what it promises and then some. As long as you’re looking for a close shave, it’s a good bet.

Long-Term Testing Notes: Months after first testing the Manscaper 5.0, we still go back to it for specific areas of our bodies—namely the undercarriage. Once you get the hang of the pull method, it shaves easily and quickly. A word of advice, though: Do not try to go fast or cut corners. Make sure you give yourself adequate time to use it slowly, or the risk of nicks and cuts increases exponentially.

Not only do the stainless steel blades cut through even the coarsest hair, but the rounded, wraparound guards protect your junk from nicks and cuts. The integrated dial allows a whopping 39 (!) different cutting lengths for a truly customized experience. Plus, it’s completely waterproof and has a 100-minute run time on a single charge.

What Else to Consider: If you’re a fan of trimming in the shower, this option is one of the best for wet use. We found that it’s completely waterproof, which makes shower shaving a breeze, not to mention cleanup. Just keep in mind that, in general, wet trimming is slightly more difficult than dry trimming—but of course, you can’t beat that cleanup.

The wraparound guard design makes it less harrowing to trim your sensitive areas, but it won’t give you the closest shave. For that, you’ll have to take it off, which is still comfortable, but more prone to nicks and cuts. And if you’re a frequent traveler who likes to trim on the go, the travel lock is important since it doesn’t come with a case.

Why We Chose It: For a more inexpensive trimmer, this one still has all the features you want, like a quick charge option, wet/dry functionality, and a variety of lengths. Not to mention, some that you didn’t know you wanted, but once you try, you’ll love, like the rotary dial to adjust trimming length easily without needing to switch combs.

Overall, this groomer is reliable and versatile, and while the blades are not quite as sharp as more premium models, it still gets the job done when you need it to.

Long-Term Testing Notes: After six months of use, the Wahl Manscaper is still able to handle whatever hair we throw at it without a struggle. That being said, while it remains useable in water, we have found that 100-minute battery life to be more like 90 minutes—though that’s still longer than most other options available.

This hybrid electric trimmer and shaver is super gentle on your skin yet extremely effective at removing body hair to your desired length. Use the guards for trimming if you like to leave a little length, or take them off for a super close shave that never leaves any cuts or scratches.

What Else To Consider: If you’re new to full-body manscaping, especially around the nether regions, and are nervous about nicking the family jewels, this is the perfect tool for you. More than any other device on this list, the OneBlade rarely—if ever—cuts or pulls hair. Now, a major side effect of this is that it can only shave to just above completely bald. So if you’re looking to go entirely bare, it might be worth investing elsewhere.

Why We Chose It: Of course, the OneBlade still gives an incredibly close shave, even if it doesn’t leave skin 100 percent bald. We tend to value ease of use, reliability, and safety over a smooth shave when it comes to body grooming, which is why we constantly find ourselves reaching back for the OneBlade over and over.

Long-Term Testing Notes: Simply put, the Philips Norelco OneBlade continues to be a staple in our grooming arsenal. From its innovative design to its ergonomic head, this device is one of the most versatile devices we’ve tested and a number of editors continue to use this as their go-to for manscaping. Not to mention, its waterproof capabilities, battery life, and shave power have not waned at all over time.

This kit comes with everything you need for head-to-toe grooming. It can also be used in the shower if you prefer a wet shave. It includes eight combs covering 40 precision lengths (!!), a detail trimmer, and ear and nose trimmer attachments.

What Else to Consider: The only difference between this version of the Series 7 and the original meant to be used on your face is that it comes with different guards that can leave hair longer and are designed specifically for the body. Other than that, the functionality and design are the same. Additionally, while the more recent Series 9 is a better beard trimmer, we find that the Series 7 handles body hair with a bit more ease.

In both, there’s a specific skin safeguard designed for below-the-belt grooming to protect your more sensitive skin from the razor, but the Series 9 is slightly gentler, which can struggle from time to time with body hair. You can still use the Series 7 on your face, of course, but you should use a different blade. Luckily, the one comes with a second blade to easily switch back and forth by just popping them off. Pro tip: Keep them in different cases or label them so you don’t get the blades mixed up.

Why We Chose It: Here at Men’s Health, we are huge fans of the Braun Series 7 simply because it can’t be matched in its functionality, portability, and versatility. Keep in mind that it’s best suited for areas you want to shave or leave a slight stubble. If your goal is an easy, quick, and efficient shave anywhere on your body, this is the tool for you.

Long-Term Testing Notes: The Braun Series 7 is a game-changer in terms of shaving. We use it anywhere on our bodies that we want a clean, close shave, like our shoulders, back, and face (of course, using different blades).

We don’t tend to use it to trim as the length combs only really offer shorter options, and without a carrying case, the combs tend to get lost in the bottom of our bathroom drawers. It is handy for any sort of tapering or contouring body hair because it’s easy to handle.

If you’re into streamlining, this all-in-one trimmer does everything: your hair, your beard, and your body (just make sure to clean it before switching locations—it’s fully washable). The self-sharpening blades keep the cutting power strong, and the plethora of guards and attachments make trimming or cutting literally any hair on your body easy. And with five hours of cordless run time, you can easily go from head to toe without recharging.

What Else to Consider: Using a clipper for everything is convenient, but it requires some adjusting of your technique depending on where you use it. This multipurpose groomer is optimized for cutting the hair on your head so it’s powerful—more powerful than some of the other dedicated body groomers on this list.

That means proceed with caution when taking it downstairs to more sensitive areas. Use it with a guard to get the hang of it and avoid nicks and cuts on your tender bits in the process. You’ll also want to thoroughly clean it before using it on your head or beard to avoid cross-contamination.

Why We Chose It: As far as multipurpose groomers go, the Philips Norelco Multigroomer is top-of-the-line. We love that it’s hefty and durable and feels more like a traditional hair clipper than anything else. Also, we found that it’s incredibly powerful and can cut through even thick, coarse hair with ease.

You also can’t beat the options you get with 23 different attachments. It’s able to do any cutting, trimming, or detailing you could possibly want. It truly is an all-in-one tool ready to attack whatever you throw at it.

Long-Term Testing Notes: Even after the testing phase, the Philips Norelco Multigroomer continues to be one of our go-to tools for trimming and cutting hair. But, we find ourselves reaching for it more as a hair clipper and beard trimmer than a full-on body groomer.

We tend to use it more on less-sensitive areas like our chests. And when it comes time to trim below the belt, we reach for something a little more gentle. That said, it’s still well worth the investment if you don’t want to clutter your bathroom with multiple tools.

Don’t worry if you’re not flexible: This handy tool lets you reach all areas of your back by yourself. An added Power Burst button shaves through extra-thick and coarse hair.

What Else to Consider: Shaving your back is hard to achieve on your own with a traditional body groomer—it’s usually a two-person job. The long, angled arm of this shaver is specifically designed to allow you to fully shave your back without help.

There are two heads, but they are both shavers—one is just wider than the other to cover more surface area. There aren’t any length attachments here because of the assumption that most guys want to completely shave their backs, and that’s probably true.

Like with any trimmer, there is a slight learning curve to using it, but especially this one, as it still takes some dexterity to understand where you are shaving and to see your progress in the mirror. It’s also not designed to shave or trim other parts of your body because of the bulky angled arm. It’s not for everyone, but if you regularly shave your back (or have someone else do it for you), it could be worth the investment.

Why We Chose It: We’ll say it again, we are always fans of using the best tool for whatever job you’re doing. Back shaving is incredibly tough to do on your own, so anything that helps make that process easier is great in our book. It’s relatively simple to use and isn’t bogged down with extra functions to confuse the process. Once you get the hang of it, it’s an important tool in your body grooming arsenal if your back is a focal point for you.

Long-Term Testing Notes: Over a year of using this tool and its battery life still holds up for hours. That being said, we have had to replace the foil (totally expected once you pass the year mark). But once the blades started to dull, we found them to be more prone to hair pulling.

The 3D pivoting head allows it to closely follow your body’s contours for a super comfortable shave anywhere below the neck. You won’t have to worry about scratches or cuts on your skin thanks to the high-performance trimmer with rounded blades.

What Else to Consider: This combo device is designed to be an all-in-one body groomer with both a shaving head and trimmer head on the same device. It’s convenient for anyone who likes the most options possible in one tool without the need to constantly switch attachments and combs. Some users note that it can nick skin easily, and others say that the shaver head has a hard time cutting longer hair.

Both of those things could come down to technique. Using this trimmer, because it is weightier and has two heads, may take some practice. Others note that the battery life is not as good as other trimmers, though the manual advises allowing the battery to completely run down before charging. This may be difficult for some users because there is no battery life indicator, so the possibility of the battery dying mid-trim is high.

Why We Chose It: The Philips Norelco body groomer does both shaving and trimming nearly as well as some other top body groomers on this list, with some technique adjustments necessary and a slight learning curve. But where it really shines is with its simplicity. The fact that you can shave and trim with ease using one device is why we keep going back to it for our own body grooming needs.

Long-Term Testing Notes: Our support of this body groomer is unwavering; however, the longer we use it, the more we’ve noticed that it’s better for trimming rather than shaving. The shaver side seems to pull hairs more than the trimmer side.

The pulling does decrease the more you use it and understand the right angle to hold it against your body (we’d imagine this is unique to the user depending on the direction your hair grows and the texture), but we’ve found that other shaving devices in our arsenal are a bit more comfortable.
