It is difficult to use around the shoulders and anyplace without a long runway so, really, it’s best for the back, as its name implies. What I’ve always liked best about Bakblade is that the idea seems too good to be true (surely you’d think a blind-spot shave with a foot-and-a-half handle is a recipe for disaster), and yet it offers one of the most confident and closest shaves of the whole lot here. Its utilitarian design is enough to warrant inclusion here, but the real innovation comes in the form of the brand’s patented dry-glide blades which, yes, you can use for a dry shave. Enter the Bakblade, equipped with a long handle and an equally extreme reach.

If you’re shaving your back without any help, then you need a contraption designed for solo use-and a trustworthy one given the blindspots at play.

It’s so easy to whip out and do a quick once-over on the chest, or even trim any pit hair that is visible when my arms are at my side. Every time I use this one, I wonder why other brands haven’t copied the genius vertical teeth with an angled head, which allows for easier movement and angling in any body part or blind spot. We called Panasonic’s ER-KG60 trimmer the best body hair trimmer a couple years back, and it’s been dethroned by the brand’s own upgrade, the ER-KG80. Cons: When used without its sensitivity guard, the bare clipper can sometimes leave a (painless) red tooth mark on skin.Pros: Innovative design makes this the easiest device to use in odd angles and crevices, or behind the back.Key Features: Ergonomic trimmer head, 0.01mm clip, adjustable trimmer head (3-12mm), rounded teeth, sensitivity trimming guard, waterproof.If all that sounds like a lot of meaningless jargon to you, relax: we already worked through all the thorny calculations. It’s not that tricky: most of the same features you’d consider when buying any grooming device-cutting power, ease-of-use, battery life-are key here too, though ergonomics factor heavily into the equation (and safety-enhancing features like extra-fine blades and bonus guard combs should be a prerequisite). (You don’t use the same soap on your hands as you do on your ass, right?) In a pinch, you could probably get away with using a really good, really clean, electric shaver, but we’d advise against taking the lazy way out here: using a beard trimmer-or worse, a regular razor-might seem efficient, but you’re more likely to bungle the job and leave your device coughing up gunk for months after. The long, spindly hairs on your back, the gnarly thicket of hair on your shoulders: all of it differs-in size, shape, and texture-from the hair on your face, so pruning those areas naturally demands a different set of tools.
