Guys, Shaver shop has some great deals going on at the moment. null I like this one. What do you guys think?
I'm old school. My wet shave Bic triple blade razers cost less than $25 a year. and I just use ordinary soap. With regular foil replacement and new cutters you will never be in front and a worse shave too. I regularly used braun shavers until the mid 90s and then wised up.
Way too fancy for me $60 Philishave. Bought a new one as my old one from 1998 went through its blade - replacement blades are $20 each (and in sets of 3) This is only my 3rd Philishave, and only my 4th shaver ever (my first was a Remington - broke when I dropped it on vanity!) The Y-man
I bought a Remington when Victor Kiam ("I was so impressed I bought the company") was advertising them. They advertised "As close as a blade or your money back". I got by money back.
Long term Philishave user recently converted to Panasonic foil. Panasonic quicker, Philishave closer. Sometimes I use both now (not at the same time). Neither as close as a blade but my skin can't handle a razor. YMMV.
I'm old school as well. Badger hair shaving brush, lather and a Mach 3 . I've never liked electric shavers. They don't give a close enough cut.
Better yet again....use safety razors. Buy one of these.... $59 and will last a life time. and 100 blades for $15 (will easily last 2 years) and use with your favourite shaving soap/oil/gel/cream. Not only is it extremely good value but it delivers a fantastic shave. In my experiences, less irritation and a closer shave than electric and multi bladed razors.
A quick update. So I went ahead and bought that shaver worth $300 at 50% discount. It's great so far. It shaves in 5 minutes without a cream. A charge will give you 5 hours and its water proof. Best shaver I ever had.
So you're either a gay man, a girl, or a straight man with a girl who needs to shave. Either that, or the shaving is elsewhere on the body.
www.mensbiz.com.au Also have shavette's if you want to get a feel for straight shaving. (Learn to shave with a straight razor!)
