A shaving apparatus has at least one shaving unit (2) which comprises an external shaving member (3) and an internal shaving member (4) which is rotatable relative to the external shaving member, the external shaving member having an annular wall portion (5) with lamellae (7) which extend in substantially radial directions and between which hair-entry apertures (8) are formed, the internal shaving member comprising cutters (10) which describe a path adjoining the inner side (12) of the annular wall portion (5) of the external shaving member (4). In order to obtain a closer shave without an increased risk of injury to the skin the shaving apparatus is characterized in that the cutters (10) together form one undulating continuous ring-shaped cutter body covering all the hair-entry apertures (8).
