Abstract: A washable electric shaver comprising a water-tight housing having a drive motor therein and a switch mounted thereon, and a shaving head. The shaving head has a stationary shear plate cooperable with a movable shear element which, when driven by the drive motor, oscillates in engagement with the stationary shear plate to cut hairs of a beard. The shaving head has a pair of end openings located on respective sides of the movable shear element and adapted to be selectively opened and closed by respective lateral lids which are normally biased so as to close the end openings. The shaver can be washed by allowing a flush of water to flow from one of the end openings to the other through the interior of the head when the lateral lids are in opened positions.
