The invention relates to a device ( 1 ) for shaving hairs growing from skin ( 27 ). The device comprises a base portion ( 3 ) having a grip ( 5 ). The device further comprises a shaving head ( 7 ) which carries at least one cutting member ( 9, 11 ) having at least one cutting edge ( 13, 15 ). The device has an actuator ( 35 ) for effecting a periodical motion (P) of the cutting member relative to the base portion in order to improve the cutting action of the cutting member. According to the invention, the shaving head ( 7 ) is pivotable relative to the base portion ( 3 ) about a pivot axis ( 25 ), and the periodical motion (P) of the cutting member ( 9, 11 ) is a periodical motion relative to the shaving head. As a result, the position and orientation of the shaving head relative to the skin ( 27 ) are less dependent on the manner in which the user holds the device ( 1 ) in his hand and positions the device relative to the skin. In this manner, the position and orientation of the geometrical path of the periodical motion of the cutting member relative to the skin is well-defined, so that the risk of skin irritations and skin injuries is considerably reduced.
