The best body hair trimmers are a must-have item if you want to cultivate a squeaky-clean hair-free body ahead of the summer holidays.

Top grooming devices like the best beard trimmers or best electric shavers are essential tools in any man's bathroom arsenal to stay looking healthy, clean and cared for, and the same can be said for your entire body, so we don't want to hear about you neglecting those tricky spots or navigating your nether region with the kitchen scissors.
Before we dive into our top picks for the best body hair trimmers though, there are a few things below you might want to consider before pulling the trigger on a shiny new bit of grooming kit. To help us wrap our heads around it all, we called in a mate to help out. Joe Mills, celebrity hair stylist, GQ's Barber of the Year and founder of Joe Mills Studio, has laid out his top tips for shaving all the hair on your body and what you need to get the job done.

How we test body hair trimmers
Where possible, our team of grooming experts included body hair trimmers that we've personally tried ourselves. We've tested both budget and premium models from the likes of Braun, Philips and Wahl on different hair types and body areas. Key to any body hair trimmer earning our recommendation is its balancing ergonomics, aesthetics and ease of use whether its owner happens to be a trimming pro or an absolute beginner. Elsewhere, we've looked at a combination of user reviews, specs, and features – combined with those years of grooming expertise – to pick the cream-of-the-body-hair-trimmer crop.
Where should I use a body hair trimmer?
There's a whole new world of manscaping opportunities for you once you buy a body hair trimmer, but where is it you should be using it? Mills tells us, “It's totally up to you, hair grows back so if you want to try something you can, and so long as you can deal with it being different for a short while, you can experiment as you go. The only thing I would advise is that skin on certain parts of the body is very different to your face, so take your time and make sure you check the blades on the trimmer to keep them clean and sharp.”
And Mills is right, you should experiment with what feels good for you. Your groin, chest and back are all places that get a bit out of control if not properly cared for, but there's not really a particular place that can't be trimmed with the right tool.
Can I just use a beard trimmer on my body hair?
While you could get away with using a beard trimmer on your body hair, we wouldn't recommend it. Beyond the (hopefully obvious) hygiene reasons, all-in-one body trimmers are specifically built to deal with body hair and will be more comfortable in delicate areas. Some products even guarantee no nicks on your nuts, thanks to their precision stainless steel blades. They’re often waterproof too, for easy use and clean up in the shower, while many have replaceable heads for optimum performance and hygiene. So if you've ever had the misfortune of a shaving mishap down below, you'll value the extra peace of mind offered by a dedicated body trimmer.
Can I use a body hair trimmer in the shower?
Waterproof trimmers are a dream if you hate having to clean up after yourself, but not all devices are made equal, and it's not always best to shave in the shower. "Always check on the operating instructions," Mills tells us. “Personally, I think it's easier and more controllable to trim dry hair and skin as wet hair can clog the blades and you tend to get a more even finish when the hair is dry. Also, you want to be able to see what you are doing, so depending on what you are using them for, it may be easier out of the shower.”
That being said, a quick wash, once you're done, will clear away the chopped hair for a fresh, clean look every time.
How do I clean a body hair trimmer?
You definitely want to maintain good blade practice by keeping them clean and sharp. Leaving them wet can result in rusty, blunted blades that can end up causing you headaches on your next shave. Mills recommends, “After each use, brush off any hair on the clipper and blades and then make sure they are dry by patting them with a towel. Really, you need to keep them lubricated and sterilised so use a spray cleaner such as clippercide, which will keep them in tip-top condition.”
Do barbers recommend using a body hair trimmer?
It can be a big decision for some men to choose to shave their body, and it's often down to your own opinions on how far you go and what you end up shaving. If you're a bit concerned, don't worry, as Mills told us, “It’s a personal choice and so there are no real rules with this. I think most of us do and it's a pretty normal thing nowadays.” And he's right. Manscaping isn't something to be dismissed, and taking pride in your body and cleaning up any unsightly hair can do wonders for body confidence and generally be more hygienic.
What’s the best way to shave or trim my body hair?
When it comes to sensitive areas, it also goes without saying that you should be slow and steady, even when using a guard. Skin can be pinched and nicked in rather unpleasant ways if you’re not careful. If you're using a waterproof trimmer or shaver, don't be shy about using shaving cream, which should help it glide through hair all the more easily.
Is it okay to trim body hair? How often should I trim it?
Of course it is, though if you'd rather not, then don't be pressured into it. But there's nothing wrong with wanting to keep things tidier — whether that involves protruding nose hairs or a more defined trim down below. As for how often, that depends entirely on how fast your hair grows, and how much you trim off in the first place. You'll have to experiment to see what works best for you. Bear in mind that if you go for a full shave, you can expect to experience itching in most cases until a few days have passed.
Should I trim my pubic hair?
We're hardly prudes over here at GQ, just read our guide to the best sex toys, but when it comes to your own pubic hair you should be sure to only trim what you want to trim. Curious about taming what lies below your belt? Just make sure you follow the advice in this article, and take things slow and steady to avoid any nicks or cuts. If you fancy a look that lies somewhere between '70s porn star and fully shaved, remember that many body hair trimmers do so at multiple lengths with good reason.
What about other men's grooming items?
Keen to tidy up everything you can? We don't blame you, summer is fast approaching and it's well worth getting your body squeaky clean to show off. If you're looking for more than just a shaved chest though, you're going to need a few more tools to get you going, namely a quality beard trimmer or electric shaver, a powerful hair clipper and some nose and ear hair trimmers for the full effect. Luckily for you, we've got guides on what to buy for each of those, so we recommend heading over there and learning about the best tools in the business. If it's specificity you're after, we'd point you in the direction of our roundup of the best Philips beard trimmers to find out what the kings of grooming can give you.

Panasonic Multishape
Pros: Multi-purpose device | huge battery
Cons: Often out of stock- Battery life: Up to 2 weeks
- Waterproof: Yes
- Regular blade replacements: Yes
Panasonic's Multishape is the Swiss Army Knife of the grooming world, with enough attachments to tidy up your whole daily routine from hair and beard to teeth and nose. Looking for a gadget that does it all? Combining an electric toothbrush, beard trimmer, razor, body hair trimmer, nose and ear hair trimmer all in one go, you'll never need another grooming gadget again. When it comes to body hair trimming, it's got two useful combs for dealing with longer hairs on your head and body and then a foil shaver for getting right up close to the skin. The battery life is supreme so you shouldn't run out mid-shave and a powerful motor makes for one of our favourite new gadgets of 2023.
We loved using the Multishape to shape certain areas of our body without discomfort or painful cuts, though be warned, the motor is the same across all tasks, and you might want to take it gently if you're going below the belt. However, chests, bellys and backs are a breezy task to complete.

Philips OneBlade Pro 360
Pros: LED display highlights battery life | Haptic dial for multiple length settings
Cons: Not great for longer hair- Battery life: Up to 2 weeks
- Waterproof: Yes
- Regular blade replacements: Yes
If Elvis is the king of rock, then Philips is almost certainly the king of grooming. The OneBlade Pro 360, just one of the many various trimming tools that the German brand produces, is an exceptionally good body-grooming device ready-made to tackle the length and breadth of your follicle-related issues.
It's got several guiding combs that can be adjusted to various lengths so you can detail, design and shape your hair as much as you please. And that's all without worrying about running out of juice midway through, as it's got an LED display to show you exactly how much of the considerable battery is left. There's also a useful charging station to keep your trimmer pride of place on your bathroom sink forever prepared to help you tackle your shaving.
The flat head has blades on either side to scoop up unwanted hair in two directions, and the actual head itself can move, dip and rotate to follow the contours of your body for a deliciously simple shave.

Meridian The Trimmer
Pros: Big battery | Plenty of attachments | One of the most comprehensive trimmers
Cons: Pricey | Rarely discounted- Battery life: 90 mins
- Waterproof: Yes
- Regular blade replacements: No
A ball-grooming device that can proudly sit on your side shower shelf, The Trimmer by Meridian is about as premium as body hair grooming tech gets. Its sage-green hue and soft, ergonomic construction stands out in a sea of more generic-looking trimmers. But how does it hold up in function? Smaller in size and completely waterproof, it’s a breeze to manoeuvre around your bodily contours and you’ll feel safe from unwanted tugging thanks to its reliable and rust-proof ceramic blades. With only two guide combs, it’s best suited to below the belt rather than any meticulous chest hair styling. Prepping for date night, follow up your trim with a spritz of the brand’s pH-balanced spray, which has been primed to neutralise odour down there in much the same way as your daily underarm deodorant, without the burn of a Lynx spray can.

Remington G5
Pros: Plenty of shaving heads | Long battery
Cons: Better options are available for a similar price- Battery life: 90 minutes
- Waterproof: Yes
- Regular blade replacements: Yes
The G5 sits bang in the middle of Remington's excellent waterproof G-series, a set of shavers that can handle any sort of hair your body can throw at it. This particular one is affordable, well-equipped and arrives with a bumper battery set that can be recharged quickly if you need to tidy things up down there or elsewhere quickly without the dreaded pinch. With a nose hair trimmer, detailing trimmer, foil shaver, and multiple grooming heads to slice through your entire body's shaggy rug, there's nothing this device isn't prepared for.
Tip-to-toe styling is a reasonably simple task, especially when you can take the blades all over in the shower thanks to the waterproof chassis and self-sharpening blades.

Philips Series 7000
Pros: Premium metal build | Multiple attachments provide 18 different functionalities
Cons: You could spend less if you don't need the trimming attachment- Battery life: 80 minutes
- Waterproof: Yes
- Regular blade replacements: No
Most all-in-one body hair trimmers use interchangeable heads so you can cut through the hair, but Philips’ Series 7000 takes inspiration from Darth Maul’s double-sided lightsaber with a different head on either side of the ergonomic handle. And look — if we're being brutally honest, it won’t help you take down a Jedi, but it will certainly help you slice through unwanted hair with all the delicacy and poise of a space samurai.
Before we dive into its features, it's worth taking moment to admire its metal build, which lends it a premium, heavy feeling in the hands, setting it apart from most of the (admittedly cheaper) competition. As for the business ends — one side has a foil razer for close shaves on stubble, while the opposite end has a comb and swappable guides for slightly longer hair to keep things trimmed. Both run off the same decent battery, and it’s fully waterproof so you can take it into the shower and run it under the tap for a quick and easy clean.
Be mindful that you do need to take care when using this one in your more sensitive areas to avoid any nicks and cuts, but otherwise, this is an excellent bit of kit that won’t take up much room in your cupboard.

Panasonic ER GB62 H511
Pros: Powerful motor | Adjustable dial wheel for precision lengths | Rock-solid build
Cons: Short-ish battery- Battery life: 50 minutes
- Waterproof: Yes
- Regular blade replacements: No
We love Panasonic's range of shavers and beard trimmers, so why not combine all the qualities of a top-tier groomer into one device that can tackle all your hair-related issues? The ER GB62, an admittedly overly complex name, the shaving experience itself couldn't be simpler. Using Panasonic's rock-solid shaving tech, it comes with multiple attachments for a range of hair lengths and a dial wheel to select the size of the trim. We have two gripes, truth be told. First, the actual blade head is massive and quite unwieldy, especially if you're trimming across your entire body. Secondly, the battery is fairly short-lived at 50 minutes, but if you're efficient and precise with your trimming it should be all good.

Gillette 4-in-1
Pros: Ergonomic design | Multiple comb heads |
Cons: Not battery-operated | Not great for sensitive skin- Battery life: N/A
- Waterproof: Yes
- Regular blade replacements: Yes
Some body trimmers can be bulky, unwieldy things that make it hard to see what you're doing when tidying up those sensitive areas, which is why we appreciate Gillette's slimline, ergonomic model that can keep up with your needs and is happy to manipulate around the hardest bits of the body. The glaringly obvious difference between this one and many others on this list is that it isn't electric at all; it's simply a set of Gillette's razor blades on the end of a more manageable handle, with multiple guiding combs to help you get rid of longer, tougher hairs. The three combs go from 2-6mm so you can still sport a shorter beard or even trim across your body.

Remington Graphite G6 Men's Electric Shaver
Pros: Ten extra attachments | Fully waterproof build | Three-year guarantee (plus an extra year if you register online)
Cons: Pricey | Rarely discounted- Battery life: 90 minutes
- Waterproof: Yes
- Regular blade replacements: No
It might be named after a million-dollar private jet, but this is an affordable beard trimmer for breezing through your body hair. At just shy of £60 at the time of writing, the G6 comes bundled with all sorts of extra attachments to help tackle hair regardless of where it resides on your body.
If you want to get even more specific, there's enough to tackle 14 different grooming styles, from longer beards and tapering, to back hair, nose hair and more, all with simple, swappable guards. There's a mini foil shaver for a closer, smoother finish, along with an adjustable comb that offers 2-20mm of adjustment. There are also 1.5mm and 3mm fixed combs included, along with a dual-sided nose, ear and eyebrow trimmer. Oh, and let's not forget the facial cleansing brush for a deep, vigorous face treatment.
A full charge nabs you a whole 90 minutes of shaving time in one go, courtesy of the built-in lithium battery. That should be plenty of juice for a full-body sweep, and it’s got a handy dedicated attachment to be used as a back shaver should you need it. If you've ever had the displeasure of contorting your arm trying to reach those hard-to-reach spots on your back (and would rather not get someone else to do it for you), then the value of this particular feature cannot be overstated. All that, and it's also compact enough to slot into a washbag. You're obviously getting run-of-the-mill looks and a plastic body at this price, but that's a trade-off that's just fine in our books.

Wahl Cordless Clipper & Trimmer Gift Set
Pros: LED display highlights battery life | Haptic dial for multiple length settings
Cons: Not great for longer hair- Battery life: Up to 2 weeks
- Waterproof: Yes
- Regular blade replacements: Yes
The last thing you need going into the summer is an untidy beard, barnet and gristly body to show off on the beach/park/garden. Clear out your whiskers and keep things looking tidy with Wahl's cordless clipper and trimmer set that keeps all your follicle-related issues under control from one simple device. It comes with a wealth of attachments to keep your whole body trim and can be used in the shower for quick clean-up. There's even a pair of scissors included if you need to get a supremely tidy shave, and a comb and cleaning oil is thrown in for good measure. It might not be the best option for tackling longer hair, but if you've been staying on top of your general male grooming tasks, we can't see there being too many issues.

Philips OneBlade Hybrid
Pros: Big battery | Plenty of attachments | One of the most comprehensive trimmers
Cons: Pricey | Rarely discounted- Battery life: 60 mins
- Waterproof: Yes
- Regular blade replacements: Yes
The OneBlade in question on this Philips device is very well suited to body hair maintenance, and Philips' little neon green shaver remains one of our top grooming guides for all use cases. Thanks to its lightweight body and svelte blade, it's a doddle to move around and reach trickier areas. Longer grooming sessions won't result in hand cramps or fatigue either, which will be welcome news to those of us on the hairier end of the spectrum.
This particular OneBlade kit features three different guards if you'd rather trim instead of an all-out shave, and they can offer extra protection from nicks and cuts if you're exploring your more delicate nether regions. If you're going guardless, bear in mind that you won't get quite the same super-smooth results as a safety razor — but you'll definitely feel a lot safer. That's not to say you can't accidentally chalk up a few nicks, mind, so as with any electric razer, make sure you take things nice and slowly and with the appropriate level of caution when you're attending to those sensitive areas.
The blade itself is easy on the skin without compromising effectiveness, managing to move 200 times per second. Unlike multi-groomers, though, it'll require replacement blades rather than a regular clean, which are available for £10.99 a pop.

Braun 6-in-1
Pros: Affordable | Simple clipper for short hair
Cons: Long recharge time | Not very advanced- Battery life: 50 minutes
- Waterproof: Yes
- Regular blade replacements: No
Ever the master of affordable grooming, Braun's black and green offering has 13 different trimming lengths that can be used on your hair-slicing journey across your beard, face, body and hair. If you're the kind of man who takes a no-frills approach to your follicles then you can hardly say fairer. While it might lack the more premium trappings of other models here, there's no doubting the sturdiness and durability of this clipper's plastic build. Providing plenty of bang for your buck thanks to some additional nose/ear hair attachments, its built-in battery offers a respectable 50 minutes of use per charge too, so you'll never be left half-trimmed.
We thought this particular trimmer is somewhat bulky to use, which can make precision trimming in certain areas require a fair amount more consideration, but the hefty chassis does lend itself to an easier grip if you partake in a bit of shower-time shaving.
- 12/17
Babyliss Super-X Metal Series 15-in-1
Pros: Premium, weighty metal build | Magnetic attachments for easy swapping | Long battery life
Cons: Pricey- Battery life: Five hours
- Waterproof: Yes
- Regular blade replacements: No
Part of Babyliss Men's slick and stylish Super-X Metal Series, this is a multi-groomer that does it all. Before we dive into its plethora of features, let's take a moment to appreciate its design. Crafted from metal, it'll feel far more premium and robust in the hands compared to cheaper, lighter rivals which are made primarily from plastic. Make no mistake — this is a trimmer you'll be proud to display on the side of the tub (rather than stash away in a cabinet).
While the included foil shaver, nose trimmer and power trimmer have your face well covered, it's the 15-in-1 device's precision trimmer functionality that shines brightest. Using Babyliss' signature Japanese steel blades, two of its total eleven click-on comb guides will prove plenty to tackle hair at every sprouting, letting you choose from a large selection of different lengths to suit your needs. Those extra attachment heads are also a doddle to swap out too, thanks to a satisfying magnetic attachment system.
With a three-hour charge providing five hours of run time, you won't have to worry about one leg being hairier than the other either. And if you're caught short, a quick 20-minute charge is good for 40 minutes of use.

Wahl Stainless Steel 9-in-1
Pros: Multi-purpose device | huge battery
Cons: Often out of stock- Battery life: Up to 2 weeks
- Waterproof: Yes
- Regular blade replacements: Yes
It might look like a boring, utilitarian, no-nonsense groomer, but there's plenty to get excited about with Wahl's 9-in-1 trimmer. Its stainless steel will forever feel plush and premium in our hands and it's got a plethora of additional heads, guides and combs to swiftly eliminate the hair around any part of your body.
It comes with nine different attachments to tackle pretty much every follicle-related problem that might be posed to you, and each is quick and easy to remove and pop on in a pinch.
However, the standout metric here is the outrageously long battery at 240 minutes. It's also quick-charging, giving you plenty of time for a quick shave with just one minute plugged into the wall.
- 14/17
Braun 9-In-1 Styling Kit
Pros: Selection of attachments for other grooming features | Superb value for money
Cons: Offers less length precision than other dedicated beard trimmers- Battery life: 100 mins
- Waterproof: Yes
- Regular blade replacements: No
In an age where generalism is increasingly valued over specialism, Braun’s 9-in-1 multi-grooming kit has a resumé that really stands out among the other body hair grooming candidates. Among its multiple talents is the ability to maintain stubble, shape beards, contour edges, clean shave, precision trim, clip hair, trim ear and nose hair, and conduct that all-important body hair groom. Phew.
How you ask? Well, that's the clever bit. It comes with an extremely generous selection of different heads, each one of which has its own speciality. Once you've finished trimming your beard, you can pop on the nose hair trimmer attachment for a little nasal weed-whacking, before swapping that head out for the body hair trimmer
Has it spread itself too thinly across these many tasks, you ask? Well, given its 100 minutes of trimming time after a mere hour-long charge, plus a five-minute quick charge which will have you covered for single trim, we'd say no. If that wasn't enough, there's also an auto-sensing motor that measures the density of your beard 13 times a second, to ensure that its power is adjusted to deal with thinner and thicker areas accordingly. With a waterproof build and lifetime sharp blades, there's a lot to love here, especially at this price.

Wahl Stainless Steel 11 in 1 Multigroomer
Pros: Minimalist design | Attachments provide multiple functionalities | Superb battery life
Cons: Expensive- Battery life: Six hours
- Waterproof: Yes
- Regular blade replacements: No
Got a lot of body hair? If your back, chest and face need a tidy-up, then Wahl’s 11-in-1 multi-groomer is the one-stop grooming tool you need to tackle every follicle. As the name suggests, there are 11 different combs, guides, and attachments to help you tackle everything from your eyebrows to your nether regions, and everything in between, with precision and care.
It’s showerproof and has a marathon-length battery that's capable of a full 360 minutes per charge, so you can hop in the shower and take your time to clean up every bit of hair you’ve got without worrying about it running out. There's also a helpful LED light to let you know how much juice you’ve got left, so you'll have ample warning. If you've ever used a less stamina-centric product to trim your hair, only for it to die halfway through and leave you with a half-finished chest, then this longevity will be a very welcome feature indeed.
The varying heads are designed to help you cut through everything from the bushiest chest hair to handling the finer aspects of sculpting and detailing your beard, and it comes with a neat carry pouch for your travels for added convenience.

Remington G4 Graphite
Pros: Seven extra attachments | Affordable price | Three-year guarantee (plus another year if you register online)
Cons: Plastic build- Battery life: 90 mins
- Waterproof: Yes
- Regular blade replacements: No
Offering very good value for its multi-functionality, Remington’s G4 Graphite multi-trimmer is by no means a sports car of a bathroom gadget. It certainly can't hold a candle to the premium metal build of, say, its pricier all-metal Babyliss rival, but then again, that's something that's fairly reflected in its suitable more affordable price tag.
Looks aside, it's offering plenty of functionality for your hard-earned cash, and it's comfortably capable of tidying you up from head to toe without leaving any notable dent in your bank account. A total of seven attachments includes a 3mm comb that’s perfect for body hair maintenance, and you can use the other attachments to easily tackle your beard, nose, eyebrow and ear hair without a fuss.
Like any gadget of this ilk, you get what you pay for, but Remington’s offering could be just the ticket if your body hair grooming is only a more occasional self-care activity. Sure, its basic design won't stir up any strong feelings of design enthusiasm, but given its purpose, we can easily forgive it for its more basic looks, especially as it delivers where it matters most. Its 60 minutes of use per charge isn't too shabby either.

Philips Series 1000
Pros: Affordable price | No need for a charging cable | Waterproof
Cons: You might prefer a rechargeable battery- Battery life: Up to two months
- Waterproof: Yes
- Regular blade replacements: No
For those who pay meticulous attention to the styling of their body hair, a dedicated grooming tool that can get up close and isn’t also being used to trim your beard is a sensible (not to mention, more hygienic), investment. Thankfully, this Philips electric razor won’t take up much real estate within your bathroom cabinet, given that its body is almost as compact as a standard razor. Its slim size and lightweight build make it comfortable to use and manoeuvre, which helps when it comes to reaching those more awkward spots. It's waterproof too, which not only makes for an easy clean-up job but also unlocks the world of shower grooming. There's even a lanyard for easy storage.
Where the Series 1000 really thrives, though, is its attention to safety in those most sensitive of areas. The incorporation of a skin protector ensures you can get up close and personal with adjustable length settings within 0.5 mm without running the risk of a nick, while the bidirectional trimming allows you to go back and forth to catch hair growing in all directions (useful engineering considering men’s body hair) – abdominal, shoulder, groin and the rest tends to grow far more sporadically than downward-growing facial hair.
