Let's make this perfectly clear, I'm talking about your FACE. I go through streaks, clean shaven, stach only, goatee and full beard. I use both electric and throw away blades. My Braun electric is getting dull and a new head is possible. Over the years I've used different brands of electric so I'm wondering what you guys have found to work the best. Also for blades I've used multi blade swivel head to single cheapies. Anyone have an opinion what's better? I've never used a straight blade and have considered it but knowing my wife she'd use it to open cardboard boxes and trims her plants unless I kept it well hidden.

I use a disposable 3 blade razor and shaving cream. Nothing fancy here. Never liked electric, never felt I got the value outta the fancy blades kept under lock and key at the store. |

I use disposables and have horrible luck with them the last year. I sometimes go through 3 of them to get a single shave in. Never had this problem before covid hit. A couple of weeks ago my wife bought me some sort of high dollar razor that has 4 or 5 blades on it. Works great. No clue what brand it is.

I get blades monthly from Dollar Shave Club. Don't remember the name, but it's a 4 blade disposable cartridge. Get about as good a shave as I've ever had. I shave in the shower and just use soap. My beard grows in about every direction imaginable, I could never get a decent shave with an electric shaver. Tried a few over the years.

I use a 3 blade razor from either Gillette or Schick depending on what I find at Costco. I usually buy a 30 pack of them so i have them for some time. I always shave after I shower so my stubble is softer and I use CREMO shave cream. I don't have super tough stubble so this works for me.

As I have gotten older, I mean matured, my whisker grow every which way. |

Gillette Fusion 5. It's got a battery and it vibrates. Smooth.

Mostly just around the edges and the neck. Now and then I take a clipper to my beard. |

Dollar shave club with their shave butter.
But for the last year, only a beard trimmer.

Used a dual blade razor for most of my life. After retirement, went to a Norelco rotary blade number. Not the closest shaves....but who really gives two chits? I shave about every three days now.....depending on what we are doing.

I just splash a little warm water on my face right after a shower and scrape it down with the cheap single blade Bic disposable. Works fine.

I ordered a starter kit from Harry's and $ shave club. Harry's came a few days ago and it gives a close clean easy shave. $ club came today but I haven't tried it yet.
