Cleancut ES412 Personal Shaver

Product Description

The Model ES412 Cleancut shaver has the distinction of being the first, and still best, personal / pubic shaver on the market. The ES412 has been made by the same manufacturer for many years (decades) and is still made in Japan, where quality and workmanship are considered high art. The business end of the ES412 consists of the slotted foil, the interior rotating blade assembly and the motor that turns the blade assembly. In order to produce a superior shave these components need to obtain a delicate working balance. First the motor must have enough torque that it can cut hairs easily, yet run at a slow enough speed that it doesn�t grab the hair and rip it rather than cut it. Second, the blade assembly must be designed to easily glide under the foil�glide but not grind. Superior design and the ability to achieve exacting manufacturing tolerances ensure this is accomplished. Last, the piece that brings it all together, the foil. To make this extraordinary foil requires superior metallurgy, innovative manufacturing techniques and human based engineering to achieve a slot pattern that effectively captures and cuts hairs WHILE not cutting the tender skin of the pubic region. But that�s what the ES412 Cleancut is; a well engineered and balanced shaving experience with the advantage of incremental improvements over time. And clad in it�s turned �stainless steel� case it also has classic �retro� style good looks. NOTE: NO TRIMMER IS INCLUDED. No electric shaver (face shaver or personal shaver) will cut hair longer than stubble. Either blade shave first or purchase a Model PS335 Cleancut �No Nick� Trimmer (available separately.) It is recommended that baby / talcum powder (purchased separately) be applied to the area to be shaved as a dry lubricant (prevents the foil from sticking to the skin.)The ES412 includes a cleaning brush and instruction manual. C-cell battery (1) required (not included.)


  • Designed and Engineered to be used for Personal Shaving without nicking or cutting
  • Use for Underarms, Bikini Line, French "landing strip" or even a Brazilian "take it all off" style.
  • Classic Styling with Turned ?Stainless Steel" finish.
  • Quality Product Made in Japan.
  • The ES412 Cleancut Shaver can be used safely for Personal Shaving by both men and women.

5.0 out of 5 stars great little shaver, February 26, 2008

I don't generally write reviews, but after reading some of these, I felt I needed to share a little. I have been using the Seiko Cleancut for my underarms daily for at least 4 years, if not longer. In that time, the only problems I have had with ingrown hairs have been when I ended up using a disposable razor for whatever reason. And that was a constant battle before the Cleancut.

The only thing I have ever had to replace on it is batteries. And they seem to last quite awhile. I noticed a tiny chunk out of the plastic holding the blades a few days ago, which is why I was looking on here. The blades are still nice and sharp, but the plastic is beginning to give out. I figure that's fairly amazing, given the flimsey-ness and all that so many have complained about.

Yes, there is the occassional hair that you may have to work at (or cut with something else) due to the characteristics of that particular hair (lying flat against the skin, funky curl, etc), but... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Maybe the problem is..., May 25, 2008
By 
Susanabanana (San Antonio, TX) - See all my reviews
I love this shaver. I have used several different types, and this is definately the best for size, shape, and effectiness. I have not found it to be more or less flimsy than any other brand I have used. The little round, domed head fits well with all of the curves on a female body, which I have not found to be the case with any other shaver.

I have pale, translucent, skin with dark hair. Typically, even after shaving, the dark hair still shows through my skin. This shaver shaves so close that I don't get that ugly effect, yet I still don't get ingrown hairs. It's like magic.

However, I have noticed that where hair is growing at an angle that lays flatter to the body, and is a bit longer than it should be, the shaver is not as effective and I have to go over and over, sometimes pressing lightly and flicking the shaver against the hair growth to get all of the hairs. Luckily, I don't have a lot of hairs with this growth pattern, but I can imagine that, for... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Great product!, December 27, 2007
This shaver works perfectly if you follow the directions. The hair has to be a really specific length to work. The method that works for me: Use the included bikini line trimmer with shaving cream. Shave in the direction of hair growth. That leaves just the right length of stubble. Then apply powder to the area and use the Seiko against the direction of hair growth. (The powder is absolutely necessary!)

If you use the above method, you can then just use the Seiko every day to keep things smooth without having to use the bikini line trimmer again. Excellent product!
