What do you guys shave with?

I've been pretty happy with Schick Xtreme3 triple blade disposables.

Bought a bag of 20+4 bonus at Sam's Club a good while back for something under 20 bucks. Being retired, I don't shave every day anymore so they last quite a while.

I get the best mileage and shaves using a two razor rotation-- a fresh one on my sensitive and cut-prone upper lip and chin and an older one retired from lip/chin service on the much less demanding cheeks and neck areas.

When that one get tired, it goes in the trash, the chin razor gets demoted to cheek duty and I take a new razor out of the pack. I tell them apart by slipping a tiny rubber band on the new one's handle.

Years ago I used the Wilkins Sword blades. About a year ago the blades I had been using (Gillette) were not in stock I tried Harries and use them now. My beard is tough so blades do not last too long.

Shave?

Which razor does Lia Thomas use on his vagina? A Gillette Fusion or a Gillette Venus?

When I went on blood thinners over twenty years ago I stopped shaving with a blade and use a Norelco rotary. It does an adequate job but not as close as a blade. I have another cheap Remington screen razor that does a much better job but use it seldom as if it misses a hair that grows for a couple of days it will not get it.

I do not need to shave all the time now but shaving takes less time then brushing my teeth. I also went through the beard, goatee and mustache phases but found I would have to spend more time grooming than just shaving.

You'll get a closer, less irritating, and shorter duration shave with any electric (and I've used both screen and rotary razors) if you use a pre-electric, such as Williams Lectric Shave. You don't even need to use a lot. I use a lot more after shave than pre-shave and a bottle of each still lasts me almost a year. Also, before you start applying the pre-electric, make sure your face is as dry as possible. I used to brush my teeth before shaving but found that shaving first starts me with drier skin and an easier shave.

I quit shaving over 30 years ago ... nowadays I just trim off the rough edges with a pair of scissors occasionally .

Never had a problem with skin irritation but may give it a try.

My current razor is maybe over two years old and I believe they recommend a new head after a year but I have never done that. I have a corded Norelco but prefer those with batteries and just toss them when batteries go.

Cartoon I saw this am:

Seems like manscaping is becoming popular according to one TV ad. As is shaving the beaver. You can even get laser treatment.

I've been using the same Phillips Norelco AT810 since 2017. Haven't changed the heads yet and still get a good shave. One charge lasts me about one month, takes only about 1 hr from full discharge to full charge, and comes with a small, lightweight dual voltage power adapter. Also, it's much quieter than the old Norelco corded razors. The flip up trimmer is very sharp and great for sideburns, eyebrows, hair over-hanging the ears etc. I see the model has been updated to: Series

I've never understood why beaver. I can see taco or camel toe, though.

LOL

I buy Costo or BJs disposable razors in a pack of 50. Since I'm retired I usually only shave a couple times a week, so the pack lasts forever. I would prefer something heavier in the hand, but I can deal with these. The shave quality seems on par with the brand names and they are way, way cheaper.

I used to have an electric (Norelco rotary?) many years ago but I wasn't very happy with it. I suppose the technology has improved since then.

A very pretty blonde. Why do you ask?

So you can make jokes about Beaver UT.

I've adopted some facets of the Sikh religion; I don't cut my hair or beard and I always carry a knife.

Sikh neighbor's son was married in a tent in their yard and two of the guys that came to perform the ceremony were carrying swords.

Our neighbor and his sons all shave and cut their hair but I have met family members that don't.
