mach 3 irritates, I use a late model norelco and works great, you have to go over the same area a few times though
 
Try milk and an affectionate cat.

Really, an electric is really the fastest and most comfortable but you do have to use it a few weeks to adjust. My Remington Classic does a fine job but getting a little worried as I think the model is no longer available and it is getting old.
 
err did u read the manual? most of the time u'll get irritation when u 1st switch from blade to electric😛 and don't expect an electric to beat a blade
 


<< i'm gonna be 21 this weekend and i haven't shaved once yet!

i hear it's a mixed blessing...?

I'm 19, and am in a similar boat. I shave, but don't need to very frequently as my facial hair isn't super noticeable (it's thin). When I do need to shave (every 2 days perhaps) I use Gilette disposables with the extra soothing gel.

Guess the blessing is some girls like the baby face look. 😱 😀
 
Do you guys find the Mach3 better than the Sensor blades? I tried the Mach3 when it first came out, but went back to the Sensor. Now I can't even remember the reason.
 
Norelco electric here most of the time. Other times the sensor excel. Tried the mach3 a few times. It took me longer to shave with it (dunno why).
 
facial hair don't grow that fast, shave every couple days w/ edge gel and a disposable. I had a trial mach 3 and didn't really like it.. prolly cause i nicked myself 😛 But the disposables are cheap enough.
 
Currently I use a mach 3. I used to enjoy shaving but now I hate it. I bought the norelco advantage razor (the one that squirts lotion) about a year ago and used it for about 3-4 months. It would always irritate my neck badly so I switched bback to ablade. I think it was because of the circulating blades. I might get a new one that has a horizontal blade, just a cheap one.
 
I use the new self-cleaning Braun Syncro shaver. A major improvement from my 6 year old Braun. Never really had any skin irritation with any electric shaver though. This Syncro is really good at not making a mess too. However, if I don't shave for a few days, it has trouble dealing with shaving longer hairs. . . .
 
I'm only sixteen, but I need to shave every three days if I want my face to be completely smooth.. I usually cheap, generic razors that come five to a package for a dollar ninety-nine or something.
 
The mach3 was great! I still have some acne on my face, so that close shave tended to cut a little closer than I wanted more often than not. So, I've switched to a Norelco. Eletric does the job and does it well, but nothing like a razor and shaving against the skin for the smoothest feel.
