• What do you shave with?
    57 replies, posted
Men, women, and everything in-between have varying desires to shave varying regions of their bodies in varying ways with varying impliments. What do you shave with? Me, I use a safety razor. I switched over last winter, cost about 100 bucks to get the badger hair brush, cream, and razor, and I love the shave. No more irritation like I had with Gilette. So smooth and precise, one blade is all I need to hack through shit

This, whatever it's called. [IMG]http://thumbs.dreamstime.com/x/pink-razor-10796702.jpg[/IMG]
Electric's probably the best for value and safety (you'll never cut yourself).
electric for life.

Electric. I don't like having a complete shave (Face too round, looks like a babby) and it's convenient.
I've always wanted to try shave with a straight razor
I have to use a beard trimmer since Dyspraxia stops me from using razors. Motor control problems. I end up slicing myself up a lot.

Cartridge Razor, probably will never use electric because of this image. [t]http://i.imgur.com/fkkn3.png[/t] (Normal sort of razor (Left), vs Electric(Right))

Safety razor. Had lots of irritation and ingrown hairs with cartridge razors, safety razors eliminated that, and its much cheaper in the long run. I spend probably $25-$35 a year on razors and cream.
Electric razor, it's quick and easy. I'm too lazy to shave with anything else.
Good ol' cartridge razor. Kiss those sideburns goodbye ! Although, I use electric to make my goate even.
Whatever disposable razors are considered.

[QUOTE=The golden;47795602]The funny thing about that is you picked the Saw-Stop which stops cutting when it touches skin. :v:[/QUOTE] That's why you let it touch the hairs and not the skin.
Safety razors are the bomb. Had to resort to cartridge lately though, nowhere near me is stocking blades at the moment.
I want to get a safety razor because electric results in a shave that's not very smooth. However I'm prone to razor burn which is what I get with the multi-blade plastic disposables.
[QUOTE=Hugo Strange;47795312]I don't get it.[/QUOTE] electric razors fuck up your facial hair, i've never read into it but if i had to guess i'd say it probably messes up its growth
safety 15 cents a shave can't be beat my brush and soap are kinda meh but i'm not super invested into shaving anyway
disposables
[QUOTE=The golden;47795683]Get a high quality shave cream or soap. Seriously that will improve the shave with any razor regardless of type. If you use a spray-foam type thing then your face will thank you when you switch.[/QUOTE] Yup I was using the spray foam stuff and I was getting a nasty razor burn. I'd also shave against the grain which apparently can cause that too.
Does epilators counts because I use one.
[img]http://puu.sh/6vJ7q.jpg[/img] Gillette Super Speed Z3 with either Feathers or Blue Birds. I've found either of those blades give me a nice shave with zero irritation.
I don't shave, as a full beard is an important part of my self-image, but I shape up when and where necessary using my pocket knife. I keep it sharp enough that it shaves pretty smoothly, but I wouldn't want to have to do the whole thing with it
