I love my Mach 3 Turbo

Electric. You have to use them for a while before it stops irritating the skin. I like not having to keep buying shit to shave. Also it's much faster.

Gillette Sensor Excel.  Two blades suffices.

Use both a Norelco electric razor and.....some version of the Schick Quattro.  The electric razor "burns" my face more (actually, it hurts the most down on my neck), but I have some lotion for that so it's no big deal.

I am using the Gillette Fusion or whatever the five blade model is called. The one without vibrations.

I use the electric hair cutter (0 mm) on my whole head twice a week (except chin, I keep it ca. inch long there). My skin is eternally grateful for not being massacred by sharp blades anymore.

I used the one with vibrations. Smoothest shaving I ever head, but still irritated my skin to no end.

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.

I thought this thread was about shaving your face.

Anyway, from responses in this thread, it seems like men of style use Mach 3 Turbo and weirdos don't.

I have this one too, but I end up with feeling like someone rubbed my face with a scrap paper every time I use it. Plus it takes bloody ages compared to Mach 3 Turbo razor. Still I keep it for quick trips when travelling with my hand luggage only - since they don't let you take razors with you on the plane.

Multi-blade razor. Not a mach three I think, some lesser sort, mach 3 is damn expensive and the blades dont last long...though it does do a good job.
I have an electric one but it is slow and inefficient, always have to use a regular razor for some bits. Often use it for a quick trim though.
Really want to try a straight razor but have no idea where to find them.

I used the Mach 3 Turbo before but found the Fusion to be even better.
