| So what is your choice? |
. Says it is best for the skin.

I don't shave normally... But when I have to... It's a 3 blade razor with cream (not gel), or an electric with Lectric Shave. I get BAD burn from an electric, also a big help in the field to stay somewhat professional but still be able to wear the kevlar without frustration from the chin-strap. |

I hate shaving. I'm much happier when I don't need to. That being said, fuck the "art of the shave". Basic can shaving cream and good blades are all one needs...that is of course for guys who don't have their tighty-whities dry cleaned and pressed with heavy starch. Those guys are a lot more comfortable whipping up their special shaving cream and powdering their balls with a fine talc. |

I'm lazy (efficient?) when it comes to this. That may have something to do with jumping in the shower at 5:15am & leaving the house at 5:30. In the shower - I lather the face with leftover shampoo from my hair. It's worked fine for years. I'll also use water + razor, or even dry shave on rare occasions. When shaving the whole head, though, I usually use Aveno gel. FWIW, I've tried many other options - Crabtree, Caswell & Massey, other brands, in both cream & shaving soap/mug form. Nowadays my nice badger-hair shaving brush is buried somewhere in the back of my bathroom cupboard. |
