Never been a loyalist to one brand exclusively, but definitely always leaned towards Wahl. Copped some Babyliss Ferraris a year ago and gained a new respect for the company. I'll be picking these up for sure.
My FX02 is almost 3 years old and going strong. I get device fatigue, but I cannot deny that this is a beast. Shaves 2 day or less growth on my bald head as close as a razor. Not a fan of it on my face though. Other than that, you can't go wrong.
I would swap the lower foil with the top when it goes dull, then buy replacements and only replace the top foil. Since you will be using the top foil most of the time.
Lithium ion batteries are the best for any tool in my opinion. That's why Wahl bit off Andis and made the Finale with lithium ion. That being said, I still choose Andis over that pretty chromed out looking Babyliss. It made me curious enough to check out your review. They need to made the battery equal or better in my opinion if they're gonna compete with Wahl and Andis.
Great video. This is my first foil. My barber uses them on me. But in between visits, I wanted the best for my face/beard. Thanks for the review. And how do you clean these :)
I had to return the Babyliss FX2, it was like a cheese grater on my face. Pulling with severe razor burn, not sure if it was a defect or what, but new out of the box it went back for a refund.
I have the fx02 they lose their sharpness FAST! had it for 2 months already replaced foil 2 times. Stick with Braun 7 or 9 way better when I used to have the 7 replaced the foil in the 5th month of using it,
I feel like the same thing that makes them cool is the same thing that irritates me all those fingerprint smudges I don't want to have to keep wiping them after every use I don't know that's just me I don't idolize my tools I just use them and replace them when needed.
I know babyliss fx foil shavers are good, but only one thing I don't like about is it pulls hair. Could u please help babyliss to make it better so make sure it doesn't, please? I know u can do it cuz u have power of skills and popularity. Please make it happen, please.
I cant use a razor on my face without irritation. So I use the Andis t-outliner to shave. To avoid razor burn, irritation and bumps. Would recommend the babyliss? Or Whals finally? Also do they cut below the skin? Or just above the surface?
It looks like no one ever uses the bottom foil. Does the single foil shave as close as the dual foil? Personal use for face. Don't want to use razors anymore.
I bought the double foil ones in black with gold and I love them. They cut sooo close! I can see how they're probably not good on very sensitive skin but it just takes time for one's skin to get used to the shaver's blades and that's it. Could anybody tell me how to understand the blue indicator light when charging? At first when I start to charge it, the blue light will be blinking but then after about a minute it will keep on steady. The owner's manual doesn't say how to understand the indicator light.
Quick question do it only have 1 foil,like do it have super close,or "SENSITIVE "for people like me who cant put everything on my face? I'm AA and that's why I mostly use the wahl 5 shavers. So I don't care how good it looks,I need to know will it bump my face up?
No issues with battery, going on 3 years strong. If you haven't already, I would get. It's as strong as the Arc 5 or Braun 9, just that it does not cover as wide as those two. Just use on no more than 2 days of growth. Struggles for me on 3, would not dream of 4 days or more growth.
Hey Chris I was wondering if you can cut my hair when you come to Phoenix. How can I contact you to be model? I have a different style and currently cut my own hair. Let me know, I'm planning to attend anyway.
hi)Can you please tell me if it can be used instead of a depilator? I want to cut their hair off their legs)))))))))))))))))))))))i'm so tired of Braun silk epil(((((want to try smt new
I just got the FX01 and it's not cutting for some reason. It powers on, but when I try it on my facial hair stubble, nothing's being cut, it's just rubbing my face. I even tried on my arms and legs too, and it's not even like it's cutting a little bit, it does not cut a single strand of hair. I've tried different angles and different levels of pressure. Is there some special way to use this or something? Or did I just get a faulty product?
How much noise do they make? I have the Andis BGR and bought the Oster Octane cordless because of the battery and I hate it cause it's loud as hell. Better battery than the Andis but not worth the 300$ I paid. I'm gonna just buy the battery and charger for the Andis and kick the Octane to the curb..waste of money..so now B4 I buy any new tools gotta make sure they're quite if all else is bueno.
I have been cutting over 30 years notably!! My recommendation is the Babyliss Pro Foil FX2 Shaver. I've used the wahl shaver and the andis shaver. You shouldn't be to concern with the cost because it feels very durable compared to the wahl and andis shaver. Which has a plastic housing. Price is still reasonable I found it listed www.barberbred.com www.barberbred.com/BaBylissPRO-FOIL-FX-02-Cordless-Shaver-p/fxs2.htm
Fx02 vs andis pro foil lithium whats better just bought the andis haven’t opened it might exchange for this one I want to use daily on my bald head what one is better not price wise just straight up better let me know thanks
I just got my hands on some fx 01 and are disappointed, they don’t appear to shave well at all and the foil shaver keeps coming off every time I take the lid off ?
aye Chris, do you think it is absolutely necessary to go to barber school? Or can you just sharpen your skills on your own time while you attend a regular college and when your cuts are on point move on to a shop?
Hey chris, I was interested in attending your seminar in Vegas man. I’m just getting into barbering and was wondering what the seminar schedule looked like. I don’t know much but I am eager to learn!
they need to make these li they fucked up with making them ni i own a pair and they are the truth but i only did the 3 hour charge one time but they come with that 2 year warrenty so thats blessed but imagine if these had a li battery dude

Why not on the face
For my needs it's a little too harsh for face use.@@ignoranceisnotatrend4669
@@ignoranceisnotatrend4669 It can shave harsh. If you have sensitive skin, it could be an issue on the face especially past two day hair growth.
Thanks Buddy, great review...I've been comparing and you've sold me on this one.
I would swap the lower foil with the top when it goes dull, then buy replacements and only replace the top foil. Since you will be using the top foil most of the time.
Just bought these for my bald head. Beast!
How about put braun series 9 cutters on babyliss foil shaver? That's going to be perfect. For next generation of babyliss foil shaver.

How is the FX2’s holding up after a year?? And how loud are they??
I will order mine tomorrow cannot wait to use it, Gillette Fusion 5 has become so freaking expensive that I decided to buy this thing.
I had to return the Babyliss FX2, it was like a cheese grater on my face. Pulling with severe razor burn, not sure if it was a defect or what, but new out of the box it went back for a refund.
I have the fx02 they lose their sharpness FAST! had it for 2 months already replaced foil 2 times. Stick with Braun 7 or 9 way better when I used to have the 7 replaced the foil in the 5th month of using it,
Also they get DIRTY FAST WITH FINGER PRINT!! And light reflects to u and at times hits your eyes it’s annoying
That shaver looks very premium! Thanks for your tips and Im gonna try it .
Whats your recommendation for a face shaver just for home use would be what? Oh, I have a mustache but no other facial hair. Great vid!!
Yooooo! Loved the review brotha awesome. Can’t wait to try them out
Braun and Panasonic seem to be making the foil GOATs.
Side note, NiMH batteries means smh since memory effects.
Correct I thought all the way up to this video that they were lithium ion.. I would have rather paid the premium for lithium ion
Agreed I think it’s because barbers don’t like to spend man.. majority I mean..
Is the andis lithium pro better vs the babyliss pro fx2
Don’t confuse it for a flask
Heavy as a full flask.
I feel like the same thing that makes them cool is the same thing that irritates me all those fingerprint smudges I don't want to have to keep wiping them after every use I don't know that's just me I don't idolize my tools I just use them and replace them when needed.

This Shaver looks nice 💥
Awesome review I just bought one in gold, can’t wait to try it out.
How is it treating you?
@@jopilot4126 I gotta say I love it, It works fast in less then 10 minutes and it gives a clean shave.
I'm gonna have to cop me a pair of these at the next barber expo.
I cant use a razor on my face without irritation. So I use the Andis t-outliner to shave. To avoid razor burn, irritation and bumps. Would recommend the babyliss? Or Whals finally? Also do they cut below the skin? Or just above the surface?
What’s better wahl double shaver sharper double foil or Babyliss foil fx1 single
It looks like no one ever uses the bottom foil. Does the single foil shave as close as the dual foil? Personal use for face. Don't want to use razors anymore.
You should do a video for that one vs the weals and andis shaver!
I bought the double foil ones in black with gold and I love them. They cut sooo close! I can see how they're probably not good on very sensitive skin but it just takes time for one's skin to get used to the shaver's blades and that's it.
Could anybody tell me how to understand the blue indicator light when charging? At first when I start to charge it, the blue light will be blinking but then after about a minute it will keep on steady. The owner's manual doesn't say how to understand the indicator light.
Steady blue means issue
Babyliss aren't great with spares. Will spare foils and cutters be available?
Yes I have some
You can by these 2 shavers at sallys beauty supply 😊
What’s better for shaving heads a single or a double?
Did you try the FX01 with nimh rechargeable batteries on it? Any difference vs running them on alkalines?
Sick!!! Thank you for the review man!!!
Quick question do it only have 1 foil,like do it have super close,or "SENSITIVE "for people like me who cant put everything on my face?
I'm AA and that's why I mostly use the wahl 5 shavers.
So I don't care how good it looks,I need to know will it bump my face up?
Is a double one better for shaving head hair? Or is a single one good enough?
how long does the blade inside hold for and where do you buy extras? :)
hey, does fx01 have a lot of power if it is only on batteries or can it work for a long time until they run out?
What do you think of the battery of the fx02. As you know is not lithium. Any problem with the
Fx02 until this moment?
No issues with battery, going on 3 years strong. If you haven't already, I would get. It's as strong as the Arc 5 or Braun 9, just that it does not cover as wide as those two. Just use on no more than 2 days of growth. Struggles for me on 3, would not dream of 4 days or more growth.

Great review... i might purchase these...
Just got the fx01 do you find when your taking lid off the foil comes away with it ?

They are quiet
Are these no bump as well?
Ok ok Babyliss huh I’m going to try them out.
How does it compare to the fx3?
Aye chris can we pay for the look and learn at the door here in dallas? Or do yuh gtta pay for both the look n learn nd the hands on?
Bout to grab these i saw them but passed on them
Yo Chris I have the original Braun 7 series. How do these compare to the older Braun shavers for cleaner shaves? Thanks in advance bro!
I havetl the same
In the market to buy foil shaver but I'm torn between the babybliss or the wahl shavers opinions on which one to buy let me know
I have been cutting over 30 years notably!! My recommendation is the Babyliss Pro Foil FX2 Shaver. I've used the wahl shaver and the andis shaver.

Tupac Shakur get Braun 7 or 9 best of the best
Andis shaver is not a good shaver very weak. Wahl 5star shaver is powerful but I haven’t tried the babyliss. But definitely not Andis. Return ASAP
I just got my hands on some fx 01 and are disappointed, they don’t appear to shave well at all and the foil shaver keeps coming off every time I take the lid off ?
I have the wahl it doesn't shave the hair very well under my chin neck
Is Tomb45 going to have a power clip for this foil shaver?
So I just bought the Fx01 today used it but it wasn’t cutting right also the foil kept falling off any tips ?
With the FX1’s I see ur going to the line on that low bald fade, would you recommend going up to that first guideline or below it ? Thank you
Nice review!
Which Bruan’s Shaver do you recommend
Tomb Squadddddd
Yo I can’t find the fx 2 online they stopped making them?
aye Chris, do you think it is absolutely necessary to go to barber school? Or can you just sharpen your skills on your own time while you attend a regular college and when your cuts are on point move on to a shop?
You need barber school to get your license so that it’s legal.. some states have apprenticeship but it’s a much longer journey
wow, didn't know that. Thanks for giving me some insight, mano. God Bless.
When are you coming to Vegas and should I go even if I just started cutting hair 2 weeks ago
LVBARBEREXPO next month
I cant find the combo FX02s that come with the 1... where can I find that combo???
idealbarbersupply
What’s the model number for the fxfs2 I lost mine please help
The 01 would last longer in the long run as its not stuck with a dying battery.
La mejor shaver es la braun serie 9. Aunque sea costosa vale cada centavo , es la mejor
Do you really get the 01 for free wen you buy the 02 shaver?
I own 6 braun series 9... I love them! But...BABYLISS IS A 'LIL BETTER!
Nice review bro. Thanks for dropping the knowledge. What's the cost of the shaver???
4:52 nope
Can u remove facial hair with this
Love mine!
Wherer do you buy these from
They should make some gold ones
Where can i order one i live in Tijuana ?
Where can I buy these?
those are beautiful! Oh my God.
Does anyone have a confirmed release date for these?
Does anyone know where I can get a replacement cord.
Ayeee dope dope
But does it get hot fast since its all metal? ??
No
Hey chris, I was interested in attending your seminar in Vegas man. I’m just getting into barbering and was wondering what the seminar schedule looked like. I don’t know much but I am eager to learn!
Pretty a sample of education from each educator there’s like 7 that get like 45 minutes a piece
Cool Thanks man. Most definitely going to take the seminar. Look forward to meeting you man. You’re a huge inspiration 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻.
I can’t find this anywhere!
He mentioned they should be out in September.
Those look sweet!
Does anyone know where to get a replacement charger for the fx2
Bossio are they dropping in the UK?
I’m sure
Chris Bossio damnnnn I just bought another Andis shaver hahaha
Tombsquad lit
Which one do u recommend?
From both of these
they need to make these li they fucked up with making them ni i own a pair and they are the truth but i only did the 3 hour charge one time but they come with that 2 year warrenty so thats blessed but imagine if these had a li battery dude
I’ll buy them from you!
Does the blinking light go solid when it is charged ?
Duh
Does this shave as close as Panasonic or Braun 9
Babyliss you must not let the hairs get too long. For me, it struggles past 2 day growth.
*That's nice* 💯
Where can we buy one from?
Available September I believe
