What the Hell .. I need to Shave !! - need a new razor - Trotts - 10-17-2008
After 2 years with my my Braun 360 it finally just pooched
died.. no longer works..
Soo I know many of you young'ns still have not yet had to trim yer peach grown around yer chin, but I figured there might be a couple of you out there that might recommend a decent Electric Shaver out there before I start to look like one of the Waltons! (if you don't know who the Waltons are yer probably too young to shave!!)
Anyhow any input would be appreciated !! 4 hours and already have a damn shadow!

I shave in the shower. Panasonic doesn't make the one I use anymore, but it's vaguely similar to this one:

except that mine has a blade setup more like this one:

I shave my balls with a sharpened piece of broken glass.

Why sharpened?

My granddad used to always use a straight edge razor.
Those things are scary but I've thought about using them, but I don't know if I would be able to shave with that thing. I shave with a mach 3 in the shower using my patented no look technique. Very rarely do I ever shave in front of a mirror.
I have friend who shaves with a straight edge. He says that nothing in the world will wake you up nice and alert like shaving with a straight edge.

The manliest man in the world shaves his balls with a straight razor, uses no shaving cream, and then slaps on some aftershave when he's done.
That being said, I'm a total pussy.

Think about that.

Works well for me too. The hand on your face is a better judge than a look in the mirror.

I have a Braun 8585 I bought like 3-4 years ago. That's their "self cleaning" line and you have to buy the cleaning cartridges which is a bit like paying monthly upkeep but I can order them through Amazon and they work great and it appeals to my laziness. I never clean the thing, I just stick it in the charging stand and it cleans itself. I also like it because if I go on a trip, I can leave the base at home and plug the power cord directly into the shaver to recharge it (but then I have to clean it myself).
Prior to that I had a Norelco Advantage (with optional goo!) which I liked a lot. In fact, if they have a self cleaning Norelco Advantage (with optional goo!) I would totally buy one.
The only electric I've had that I didn't like was a Remington of some sort.
And yeah, I will totally go with electric shavers over any kind of blade. I'm just lazy, and a self-cleaning electric razor is as lazy as you can get.
- Vanraw - 10-19-2008
I cant do electrics any more.
I use the Mach 3 as well. I was a double edge for a long time and laughed the mach 3 and then my wife picked up the wrong razors so I tried it. To say I was amazed at the difference would be a understatement. Been using them ever since.
- Arsilon - 10-19-2008
Every electric I've ever tried didn't seem to work well.
Either it just didn't give a good shave, or hairs would I assume get caught somehow and it felt like they were being ripped out rather than cut.
I would love to have the convenience of one but I stopped trying them after a while.

5 blades is where its at.
- Hoofhurr - 10-19-2008
Mach 3 here. Wish they would standardized the shit though so that all blades fitted on every handle.
- Vanraw - 10-19-2008
Yea, its all about marketing. It would have been simple to put the double blade and then the mach 3 on the same handle, but look at how much revenue they would have lost by not forcing you to buy a new handle.

I've shaved with a straight edge before. It's a really great shave once you get used to it, the problem is I just don't have 30 minutes in the morning to spend on my face.
- Chain - 10-19-2008
I use a Venus Breeze, but I don't think it would work nearly as well on someones face :roll:

Unless your face looked like a vagina. Like the Predator face!

If you're not shaving over a frigid mountain stream with a Bowie knife, you're a wuss.
- Uncle Shags - 10-31-2008
I found this on the WHA forums of all places. I beard it, but if I go back to shaving one day I'll try this out.

I refuse to have less hair then my date....likewise, she BETTER not have more hair then me (head not withstanding of course).
- Kakarat - 10-31-2008
I use the mach 3 as well. Since I have a goatee, I use a mirror. 5 minutes at max.
