Did we have this thread before?

About 2 years ago, I got my first safety razor, and haven't looked back. I tried a Shavette, but it felt too unsafe and made me look like I fought with a cat. I can't stand paying Gillette prizes for a four-blade razor that is good for three shaves, and sometimes needs minutes to clean out all lodged hairs from it.

I said electric razor although I use a combo of that and disposables. I had the Mach 3 and hated it.

Mach 3 Turbo, alternate with electric razor. A Mach 3 blade lasts much more than three shaves.

Never tried a safety razor.

And don't you dare shaving that moustache of yours!

Tel started similar polls about shaving twice(what happened to him? Languish is dying :() but can't remember if it was about the razors or frequency.

Electric trimmer then electric shaver.  Doesn't get close enough, though, so every so often I'll clean it up afterward with a double-bladed safety razor.

I don't do 3 or more blades because they don't get close enough.

Ditto.

Use the sensitive skin gel as soon as I'm out of the shower, or a hot compress for a few minutes to loosen up.

Exactly same here.

I have a really tough beard and eventually found a fixed head twin blade disposable that's sharp enough to cut it with some consistency iirc called something like blue two, probably gillette, well I know what the packet looks like so just pick it off the shelf.

Electric shaver. Been using those for many years. Much easier and faster for me than with a blade, though I keep razors just in case, or when I feel like shaving with a razor.

Electric razor. Braun series 7. works pretty good. got it mainly to shave my head as i was going through 1 blade every time, but it shaves my face well too.

I just cut off my beard.  I had like eight months of growth there.  I use a Mach 3, and an electric clipper when I feel like it.  It's funny how shaving doesn't become a priority if you don't go outside.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Combo Mach 5 super dooper turbo or something and a electric trimmer.

Stupid thing crap out on me today and messed up my beard. I had to shave it entirely.
