Our take

The BaBylissPRO FoilFX02 Gold is a barber-favourite finishing shaver that justifies its reputation. The titanium double foils get remarkably close on fades, hairlines and necklines with little irritation, the 11,000 RPM motor never feels underpowered, and the 180-minute battery easily covers a full day of cuts. The all-metal gold body looks and feels premium, though it is a finishing tool — trim longer stubble first. For barbers and home users wanting a skin-close finish, it is an outstanding buy.
