Do you shave with an electric razor or good old blade+shaving cream

3yr old norelco 6 sets of blades, it doesn't shave as close, but I keep a GO-T (my friends say I look kinda like Shaggy on Scooby Doo) so it's a lot quicker.

Yes. We need a both option.

I usually use electric most of the week, but once or twice a week i'll use my Mach 3 Turbo, since it's a closer shave.
 
I used to use a philishave electric. Biggest pos ever and only useful for people who don't have thick facial hair imo.

Now i use a mach 3. Anyone think it's worth it to use a mach 3 turbo instead of the regular ones?

Aye, I use my electric trimmer thing to clean it up every other day, but when the need arises..I bust out the mach3.
 
I'm razor burn proof, so I've used a trusty Norelco rechargable for the last 16 years. It's great being able to shave in 2 minutes 🙂

What's weird is the only time I do get razor burn is when I shave with a blade.
 
Braun Synchro shaver for me...my facial hair is too thick and tough for a razor. Shaving with a blade makes me look like I just climbed through barbed wire, no matter how new the blade is. 🙂
 
Another Mach3 here.

Wife was initially offended, since Gillette apparently 'tests on animals' (OH NOES!! All those hairless bunnies!!), so I tried the Schick Quattro for a while, but....

I mean, does anybody else think the Schick razors really, REALLY suck?!

Who came UP with those things?! It's like they have a bunch of razor blades in the head of it with sandpaper pads on either side or something, it's razorburn-city!
 
Panasonic ES8152 for me. Been using for about a month. I switched from the Mach 3 because I just got fed up with the razor burn and bumps and irritation from the blade. I'd been eying the 8092 for a few weeks and when the 8152 went on sale at Best Buy, I jumped on it. I still have the Mach 3 around, though, since there's one spot on my neck that I just can't get with the electric no matter what I do.
