It is not always comfortable to talk about grooming “down there”, but for many men the need to be hygienic and appealing down below requires a safe and effective grooming product. One product that many men endorse is the Manscaped Lawn Mower 2.0. We decided to take a closer look at this personal grooming kit in our Manscaped Lawn Mower 2.0 review.
What Is the Manscaped Lawn Mower 2.0?

The Manscaped Lawn Mower 2.0 is a below-the-waist personal grooming kit for men that features “skinsafe” technology. It is important to avoid cuts and burns around the groin area as well as burning sensations and hair pulls.
Our Manscaped Lawn Mower 2.0 review noted the trimmer sports wet and dry use, so for men who like to shave in the shower, the waterproof Manscaped Lawn Mower 2.0 is ideal. You can easily change blades in the trimmer, and blade guides allow users to choose between four different lengths.
The makers of the Manscaped Lawn Mower 2.0 also put thought into the handle with slip-resistant ergonomics that help to ensure ease of use and personal safety. The mower’s blades are made of ceramic, so they do not rust. While other razors use stainless steel or high carbon steel, ceramics remain sharp and are completely waterproof. And because they do not conduct heat as well as steel razors do, you do not have to worry about the razor getting too warm when in use.
The 2.0 version of the Manscaped Lawn Mower has a 6,000 RPM motor. The original Lawn Mower only sported a 4,000 RPM motor, and users seem to agree the increase to 6,000 is noticeable and appreciated. Though the motor gained power, it also features QuietStroke technology. This technology lessens trimmer vibrations to keep your grooming times personal and unnoticed by others.

Ease of Use
The wet/dry feature of the Manscaped Lawn Mower 2.0 allow for use in or out of the shower. When using in the shower, a user should follow the precautions he would otherwise use when allowing any hair to go down the drain. Some men are hairier than others.
You can also use a disposable shaving mat if you are not grooming in the shower. Stand over the mat in a comfortable position and allow trimmings to fall on the mat. Simply flip the switch to turn the trimmers on.
Always be sure your skin is stretched when trimming to avoid nicks. When using a comb, the trimmer should glide against the direction of growing hair. The cordless nature of the trimmer makes it easier to reach all places without adjusting or stepping over the cord, and the batteries last up to 60 minutes – plenty of time to groom efficiently.

The great variable in using the ES412 is the length of hair. Hair needs to be reduced to the length of stubble before the Cleancut Intimate and Sensitive Area Shaver can effectively groom. In essence, you need two trimmers: one to reduce to a stubble and the Cleancut trimmer to finish the job.
