Unwanted Facial Hair Trimmers

'The Weed Whacker' from Manscaped Has SkinSafe Technology

— June 11, 2020 — Tech
'The Weed Whacker' from Manscaped is a new grooming tool for consumers who are looking to eliminate unwanted facial hair without the need to do any plucking or deal with more complicated solutions.

The device functions as a nose and ear hair trimmer that will make quick work of any long hairs that might be growing without the need for any salon-style techniques. The product utilizes the brand's SkinSafe technology in order to reduce the occurrence of nicks, tugs and snags, while the battery will deliver up to 90 minutes of use per charge.

'The Weed Whacker' from Manscaped was explained further by Founder and CEO Paul Tran who said, "Our market research found that 79% of partners polled admitted that long nose and ear hair is unattractive. Our product development team worked tirelessly to engineer the best nose hair trimmer possible. Innovating our product line with a tool used for 'above-the-waist' grooming was a natural progression for our brand vision and overall mission. Not only are we dedicated to providing men the right tools for the job, but we aim to instill self-assurance in our consumers. Addressing visible, unwanted facial hair helps make a man feel clean, refined and more confident in just a matter of moments.”
