Well-known for its foil type of shavers Braun has yet again come up with a sleek shiny black electric shaver. It looks like a premium product even though the price is much lower. The Braun Series 3 390cc is for both wet and dry shaves. With its foil type shavers, the Series 3 390cc gives you 30% less skin irritation when compared to rotary style shavers.
Braun Series 3 390cc is a good fit for those who don’t have bushy beard.
Being a foil-type electric shaver, it uses rapidly vibrating blades that are covered by rectangular strip of finely perforated foil. When these pass over your face, the hair gets trapped in these perforations and then the blades cut them off. Foil type shavers are known for close, quick and precision.
