Why barbers reach for it

The FX79FSGE is the finish of the FXONE kit. Where the clipper removes bulk and the trimmer draws the line, the shaver takes it down to the skin: bald fades, smooth cleanups around the ears and neck, and a crisp hairline. The offset double foil and dual counter-directional blades work together for a close cut, while the pivoting head follows the contours of the head and face. Because it shares the FXONE battery with the clipper and trimmer, one charged battery moves across your whole kit.

Key features

Precision-engineered gold Titanium foils in an offset double-foil layout for a close, smooth finish.
Dual counter-directional cutting blades that work with the foils for crisp fading and clean hairline work.
Pivoting foil head with a locking feature that follows the shape of the head and face, or locks flat for detail.
Upgraded N1 high-torque digital motor with dual ball bearings at 10,000 RPM for sustained power under load.
Universal snap-in FXONE lithium-ion battery with a quick-release button, shared with the FX899GE clipper and FX799GE trimmer.
Up to 4 hours of cordless runtime from a 2-hour charge, with a 4-stage LED ring showing the level at a glance.
Improved all-metal housing with a knurled barbell grip for control through long finishing passes.
Dual-voltage universal charging base rated 100-240V for use anywhere.

What to expect in daily use

This is a finisher, not a bulk tool. In the hand it feels dense and balanced, and the pivoting head keeps the foils flat against the skin as you move over the jaw and neck. Locked, the head holds steady for a clean line along the hairline. Run it after the clipper and trimmer for the final pass, drop the battery onto the base, snap in a spare and keep going. The LED ring shows where each battery stands before your next client.

Who it is for

Professional barbers who want an all-metal finishing shaver for bald fades and clean hairlines
Anyone already on the FXONE battery who wants one cell across clipper, trimmer and shaver
Barbers who want a pivoting, lockable foil head for both contoured and flat detail work
Mobile and travelling pros who need a 100-240V base that works anywhere

Who it is not for

Barbers who need to remove bulk or fade -- the FX899GE clipper is the tool for that
Anyone who mainly draws lines and edge-ups -- reach for the FX799GE skeleton trimmer instead
Anyone wanting a corded or wet-shave razor; the FX79FSGE runs cordless from the FXONE battery and is made for dry use

Professional tip

Let the foils glide rather than press. A double-foil shaver gives its closest, most comfortable result with light, overlapping passes against the grain, not by forcing it into the skin. Lock the head for a straight hairline, unlock it to follow the curve of the neck, and keep the foils clean so they stay gliding smoothly.

How to use it

Charge the battery fully on the dual-voltage base before the first use.
Snap the battery into the shaver until the release button clicks home.
Choose the head setting: unlocked to follow contours, locked for a flat, straight line.
Work in light, overlapping passes, letting the foils glide over clean, dry skin.
Finish the hairline and neck last, checking your line as you go.
Brush the foils and blades clean, add a drop of oil, and return the battery to the base.

Safety first. This is a powered shaver with fine foils over sharp blades. It is made for dry use -- keep it away from water and do not rinse the body or hold it under a tap. Shave on clean, dry skin, do not press hard on sensitive areas, and stop if a foil is torn or dented, since a damaged foil can catch the skin. Do not expose the lithium-ion battery to heat or fire, and stop use if the housing is damaged.

Care, maintenance and compatibility

Brush the foils and blades clean after every client and add a drop of shaver oil to keep them gliding. Do not rinse the shaver or hold it under water; wipe the all-metal housing with a dry cloth only. Replace the foils and cutters as a set when they wear, using the matching FXONE replacement foils and cutters. The FXONE battery is interchangeable across the line, so it also powers the FX899GE clipper and FX799GE trimmer; charge it on the included dual-voltage base and store the shaver somewhere dry.

Frequently asked questions

What is the FX79FSGE for -- how is it different from the clipper and trimmer?

It is the finishing tool of the FXONE kit. The clipper removes bulk and fades, the skeleton trimmer draws lines and edge-ups, and this double-foil shaver takes the cut down to the skin for bald fades, smooth cleanups and a crisp hairline. All three share the same FXONE battery.

How does the interchangeable FXONE battery work?

The lithium-ion battery snaps into the shaver and releases with one button. It is the same battery used across the FXONE line, so it also fits the FX899GE clipper and FX799GE trimmer. Keep a second battery charging on the base and swap it in when the first runs low to finish with no downtime.

Can I use it wet, with shaving cream or in the shower?

No. The FX79FSGE is built for dry use -- keep it away from water and do not use it with cream or in the shower, and do not rinse it or hold it under a tap. Shave on clean, dry skin and brush the foils clean afterwards.

How does the pivoting locking head work?

The head pivots to follow the contours of the head and face for a comfortable close pass. Lock it flat when you want a steady, straight line along the hairline or neck, and unlock it again to ride the curves.

How do I replace the foils, and do I still oil them?

Replace the foils and cutters together as a set when they wear or feel less close, using the matching FXONE replacement foils and cutters. Even so, oil the foils regularly: a drop after cleaning keeps them gliding and extends their life. A dry, clogged foil pulls and drags.

Can I get a close shave on sensitive skin?

Use light, overlapping passes and let the foils glide rather than press. The foil sits between the blade and the skin, which suits close finishing, but forcing it or going over the same spot too many times is what irritates sensitive necklines. Ease off the pressure and keep the foils clean.

Can I use the FX79FSGE abroad?

The charging base is rated 100-240V, so it works on mains power worldwide. You only need a simple plug-shape travel adapter, not a voltage converter. The shaver itself always runs from the FXONE battery, so you are never shaving straight off the wall.
