Because Men need to discuss things like this.

Been considering getting this:

after a month or so of my usual Mach Fusion cheapo shit convincing me it's just not enough. Anyone got one? What do you guys use to cleanse your face of beardhair? Etc.

Random sharp bits I find lying around my sink.

No, honestly though, I just the grab the closest of the myriad of razors my dad and I share and start hacking away at my face.

We tried keeping them separate, but we're both so messy and lazy that we just gave up.

Mach 3 here, I also have a Philips electric thingie but that just blows, not nearly enough precision.

I have a Fusion, but I'm always in a hurry so mostly I just use the Norelco Electric I have in the car.

I have not shaved since the NHL playoffs started, which was mid-end of April. They call me Grizzly Adams.

+1. I got sent two of them when I turned eighteen and having been using them since then. Fucking capitalism. I try to stay clean shaven since my facial hair fails to come in thickly.

gillette mach 3, but not the battery-powered one. they were giving them away for free at uni, i nabbed some 2 or 3 lol. they give those away and then charge like 8 euros for each little razor unit, so i only change it like once a year (seriously - i have my current unit since april 2008 :ph34r:

).

i've considered moving to electric as it's faster and cheaper on the long run, but apparently it's bad for your skin and doesn't give such a clean shave. my uncle told me to use a razor but i've afraid i'll sneeze while i'm shaving and burst open my jugular vein or something.

I have a Fusion as well. It sucks getting raped on the cost of the blades, so I've purchased this:

Haven't tried it yet though.

I am turning 17 this August and I haven't had my first shave yet, ha ha.

The Evil Dead · **Posted:** Sun May 31, 2009 2:57 am

I just shave off the top with the old electric razor and call it good brah.

If I have to look slick I whip out the gillette with like 8 blades or whatever it is these days. Nothing fancy.

Well I use a Gillette Mach 3. It's the best I've used but being the cheapskate that I am, I only change the blades once a month/month and a half. I shave every week anyway.

But seriously Zad, you really don't need a shaver that costs 60 pounds, do you?

Not really, but look at the fucking thing! Like some ninja weapon from Star Trek or something.
