Which electric shaver?

[Krassus]

Which electric shaver should i get? I don't really know anything about them, not even how much i should spend. So fill me in guys! What features do i want? Rotary or foil?

I have the Norelco shaver that shoots a creamy spooge all over your face while you're shaving.

Don't do it, you'll regret it.

Why?

I've been using an electric for about 16 years now. I currently use a rotary (Norelco) but it doesn't do as good a job as any of the foil shavers I've used.

My favorite so far was probably the panasonic wet/dry that I had.

If you're switching from a blade you have to give it at least a month before deciding to switch back. It will take your skin that long to adjust to the shave.

What will happen to my skin during that month?

I've 40+ years with electric razors. The rotary ones always seem to miss more hairs than the foil does and if you skip a day or two the rotary is out of its element. Go with a foil-type if you decide electric is for you.

It could get very sensitive and you may have to skip a day shaving. Sometimes it can give people a "shaving rash", those little bumps that go away after a while.

I'm very content with the braun sycro for $99 w/o the cleaning accessory. Been using the foil shaver for a year so far, no complaints.

Braun Synchro, self cleaning is awesome, a little pricey though
