The ES-LS9A Arc6 shaving razors for men deliver an ultra-premium shave with six blades—two finish blades, two lift blades, and two new thick stubble blades coated with titanium. Our razor is forged from the same highest-grade stainless steel used for Japanese sword making, and is informed by centuries of Japanese craftsmanship. This 6 blade razor for men employs an ultra-fast linear motor that delivers 84,000 cross-cutting actions per minute to trim even the thickest beards with ease, while a unique head moves in 22 independent directions to stay close to skin. The advanced beard sensor responsively boosts and reduces power for an unbelievably close shave without irritation. As a men's electric shaver, it presents a refined texture, a beautiful matte black color, and a sculptured, ergonomic shape that feels substantial, yet lightweight. Anyone interested in shaving, or who is a groomer, will appreciate the included premium cleaning and charging station.

Review: Battle of the Electric Razors - After lots of hands on research including the Panasonic Arc 6 and the Braun Series 9 Pro. Here's my feedback. 1. Panasonic Arc 6 will give you a closer shave than the Braun Series 9 Pro. Whether you shave dry or wet. 2. A closer shave can mean more razor burn and this is equally true with the Panasonic Arc 6. The Braun Series 9 pro won't shave as close as the Pan Arc 6 but it will be a bit more comfortable (wet or dry), less razor burn. However, here's the important facts to keep in mind. Fact: Dry shaving will never get you as close a shave as wet shaving. It cannot. The physics are simply not in favor of drying shave closeness. Closeness however is a relative term. Some people don't want to shave that close and that's perfectly ok. It's a personal preference. If you want the maximum comfort at the cost of a shave that is not as close, then the Braun Series 9 pro will save you some money and serve you well (wet or dry). If you are in pursuit of the closet shave you can get with an electric razor, here's what I found to be true. Take your shower in the morning before shaving. Apply a nice shaving cream with a shaving brush. Avoid the canned stuff. Then use the Panasonic Arc 6. You'll get the closest shave you can with an electric and the razor burn will be nearly eliminated. That's it. No secret. No magic. Wet shaving (shaving with real shaving cream) and the Pan Arc 6 will get you the super close shave you might want with an electric. The upside on days when you are in a rush, before you shower, you can use a pre-electric shaving lotion gently pass the Pan arc 6 over your face and get a quick and dry shave. Not as close as wet shaving but likely good enough for the vast majority of people. Dry shaving is just dry shaving you cannot make it more than what it is. It is fast and with a little bit of practice you can avoid razor burn by not trying to get a closer shave than the shaver is capable of doing dry by avoiding pressing the shaver hard against your face or going over the same area too many times. Accept that it's going to be "less close" but you get the advantage of speed and convenience. Wet shaving is the real ticket to a close shave no matter what method you use. That takes a nice hot shower, and high quality shaving cream (not the canned stuff). Here is the larger question. If you're committed to a wet shave why not just use one of the really good cartridge razors? and the answer is....... You can. A Gillette proGlide shield will give you a shave that is a bit closer than the method I describe above. So if you already using a proglide, and wet shaving (obviously), then you can stick with what you're doing and avoid electrics althogether. The one recommendation I would give is that even the proglide can be dramatically improved by dropping the canned foam and buying a nice shaving cream and using a shaving brush. After a full year of researching all the different shaving paraphernalia, I've come to the conclusion that a hot shower and really good shaving cream makes the biggest difference no matter what you shave with. What your dad told you when you were just a kid; turns out to be right. :) Shavers come and go, but a hot shower and a good shaving cream are here to stay. Start with that then pick whatever shaver makes you happy.
Review: Great High End Shaver - I have had a Panasonic Arc3 for years and decided it was time to upgrade. I also considered the highly rated Braun Series 9 and its many configurations but decided on this Arc6. It is certainly an upgrade from my old shaver...more features, closer shave, and most importantly, more comfortable. The Braun was also a close shave, but just not as comfortable for me. I know the big head can be intimidating to some, but I have no problem with it....it gets where it needs to go, and as I said, is quite comfortable. I didn't get a version that has the cleaning station as I find these shavers are easy to clean and occasionally oil without that big thing on your countertop. I recommend it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is a game changer for people who have beards that grow in multiple directions.
*by P***L on February 13, 2026*

My beard grows in like five or six different directions so it's hard to get a clean shave. Previously I had the Braun Series 5 and it was okay. But I just got this Panasonic Arc 6 today and oh my God it is a game changer. It is the closest thing to a perfectly clean shave without using an actual razor I have ever gotten. And took half the time of my previous razor. And it's very gentle on my skin. And the pivoting head is amazing.
