Electric Shaver or Razor?

Im tired of my Dimond FX razor, it dosent get close enough and blades dont stay sharp at all...What can i do? I tryed an electric shaver once (3 head type) but i didnt get it, u just drag it around, it didnt work to good and it didnt slide around very smooth on my face... I was thinkin bout goin mach3 turbo but are they really that good?
 
Did you give the electric razor a fair, 30 day trial? Gotta let the face get used to it.
 
I use a Mach3 and its good

But sometimes I want a electric for the speed. I don't have time to sit in front of the mirror for 10 minutes to shave every morning ;o
 
I didnt really give the electric a proper try but i dunno when i used it i didnt like how i had to drag it acrros my face with all that friction, i like shaving cream, its fun to play with 🙂
 
When I'm going to to shave (in the near future) it's going to be with an Norelco electric shaver ! 😀 The one with the cool Nivea lotion " goop" that reduces the friction.
 
Mach 3 rocks, seriously, some good shaving cream and your good to go



electric just doesnt work for my face, even brand new it feels like its trying to pull it out

plus with a straight razor if you shower and then shave immediately the hair is soft to shave, compared to most
electric razors which dont work in the shower 😛

That's what I have. It works great except on the neck, sometimes it doesnt get everything.
 
I use a blade razor for shaving... the ones that everyone are raving about are just out of my price at the moment... beside, the razor works better then all the electric one's I've used...
 
i used electric for a long time but when i tried a razor i found it irratates my skin less, so it's mostly razor these days. i've tried the sensor excel and mach3 turbo, and there's not too much difference for my face.

don't confuse it with normal whipped cream when you're havin' fun with your girlfriend 😉
 
razor. you cant beat it. no matter what an electric has a foil between your face and the blade, not as close.

i like electric as a backup. leave it in the car and stuff. can't use a razor in the car😛

Quote:
Best among men's rotary shavers were the Norelco Reflex Action 5861XL and Quadra Action 6885XL. Both worked well overall and can shave with or without a cord. Although both models have been discontinued, the similar Reflex Action 5822XL, $80, and Quadra Action 7885XL, $110, should perform comparably.

Among men's foil models, the Braun Flex Integral 6520 performed nearly as well as the Syncro System 7570, costs less, and is easier to grip. Both have been discontinued, but the similar Syncro System 7680, $200, and Flex Integral 5441, $115, should perform comparably.
 
Razor... I only shave once every three days... and so I figure since I do it so rarely, may as well have fun doing it
 
my dad introduced me to the cordless norelco

i have always hated shavers over razors but gotta say that norelco changed my mind.

Yeah, I have it too. Except it's really a Philips and sold as such in the UK. Best Electric shave you can get, but you will never beat the blade...
