The 6 Best Electric Razors for Women in 2026, Tested by Beauty Editors

We previously tried and enjoyed the Philips Lady Shaver Series 6000, but it's no longer available. Thankfully, the brand upgraded to the 9000 model—and we love the changes.

You're paying $30 more, but it's worth the upgrade. The new model is a more powerful device that has two speed settings for faster plucking. It also features a quicker two-hour recharge time and can be used cordless for up to an hour.

The 9000 is equipped with eight attachments, including a floating foil head that glides across the skin. The different blades of the Philips electric razor are designed to target specific areas of your body, like the more compact bikini trimmer comb and head versus the larger trimming comb for your legs. It does an excellent job of trimming coarse body hair without any irritation or tugging.

Regardless of which attachment you employ, they all ensure that you can shave safely, even in the tightest contours of your legs and underarms. Whether you shave wet or dry, the ergonomic handle design will make sure nothing slips through your fingers. For this reason, we think the Philips is an incredible value. There are other, less expensive options on our list, but they're not quite as versatile in terms of where you can use them, so that's why this one took the top value spot.

Amazon reviewers can’t get enough of this affordable electric razor. It boasts a casual 4.2-star average from nearly 15,500 Amazon reviews. No wonder it earned the top spot as Amazon’s no. 1 bestselling electric razor.

So what makes it so effective for you? It does a little bit of everything well! There are five interchangeable heads that target everything from the bikini area and legs to underarms and face. If you’re dealing with rogue hairs in hard-to-reach areas use this one for touchups. It comes with trimmers and traditional razor heads so you can snip longer hairs to about the length of a rice grain before shaving. Offering IPX7 waterproof protection, you can confidently shave in the shower with this device or use it dry if you prefer.

Our favorite Philips model is no longer being sold, but we found a much cheaper alternative that doesn’t skimp on quality. After all, it can be nerve-racking to take an epilator or electric razor to the face, but this compact model was made just for that.

It’s shaped like a lipstick tube and features a hypoallergenic head that glides over rogue chin hairs and your upper lip with ease. Though it lacks a built-in mirror or LED light so you can conveniently see and remove even the smallest facial hairs, this device is only $20 compared to $47 Phillips model. With those savings you could easily treat yourself to a light up makeup to ensure you see every unwanted hair.

"I love this face shaver when I'm having one of those all-out spa nights," says Wohlner. She notes that, when paired with a liquid exfoliant and a hydrating face mask, the results are truly out of this world.

Pro tip: You should try using it before your skincare routine to help your products to really penetrate the skin for a major glow. Just don't use anything with too many active ingredients like retinol right after as that can cause sensitivity.

Looking to stay silky-smooth on vacay? Then click "add to cart" on this extremely travel-friendly razor and then toss it in your carry-on or gym bag for quick, simple touch-ups. It's compact, so it won't take up precious room in your cosmetic bag (you could even stash it in your office drawer to ensure that you're hair-free for any impromptu after-work activities like happy hours and date nights). And yep, this little shaver is super lightweight to carry which is always a win.

Despite being battery-powered, you'll be shocked by how durable it is compared to something cheaper. This dual trimmer lifts and guides the blades for smooth results whether you're shaving wet or dry. It does a great job for the price, but you might notice that it seems to work best when the hair is longer, so it may not be ideal for targeting stubble. (It's totally NBD though because you can just shave less often and ultimately who doesn't love that?)

It's also not waterproof or durable for daily, consistent use so you wouldn't want to consider this your primary hair remover, but for a quick trip—brilliant! No wonder it earned an impressive 4.1-star average from more than 14,430 Amazon reviews.

This razor, which is specifically designed for the bikini and underarm areas, can be used both inside and outside the shower, no matter your hair type. It's ideal for thick, coarser hair, though, because it has a sharp blade that trims them on the first attempt. Additionally, this cordless device has rounded edges to prevent accidents. Anyone who's shaved knows hair removal can get messy, but the head on this shaver opens up for easy rinsing, too.

I enjoyed my bikini line shaving experience enough to use this device on my underarms and that's when I realized it heats up relatively quickly, which may be something to keep in mind if you're going for a longer shave sesh. Unlike the sold out Gillette razor we featured, Phillips is rechargeable, so you won’t have to buy batteries once it dies out.
