Newarcher Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Re: Straight razor or electric razor? Bic What gets me are these new vibrating four razor killing machines. Just shaving with one that isn't vibrating and moving all around is hard enough! New Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clayman Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Re: Straight razor or electric razor? twin blades here. Some day I want to grow it nice and scruffy and then find a barber for a REAL shave with a straight edge. My current barber does use the straight edge on the back of my neck and to clean up just over the ears, but he doesn't offer a full facial shave.

My face is like sandpaper. Ive tried the expensive electrics and they dont work at all. Even with a blade I cant shave more then every other day or I carve my face to shreds.

Shaun_300 Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Re: Straight razor or electric razor? Gillette M3 Power here, it's basically a green Mach 3 that vibrates. Tried the electric ones and they don't shave near as close as the straight blade ones do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[ QUOTE ] My current barber does use the straight edge on the back of my neck and to clean up just over the ears... [/ QUOTE ] This takes me back to my years in Los Alamos, NM - I'd go to a local Mexican barber named PePe (at least that's what I called him) who'd give me a nice warm lather neck / ears / chops shave with what must've been a 75 year old straight razor (before he shaved you, he'd hold the knife in front of your face for about 2-3 seconds to let you get a good look at it...). He had one of the steadiest hands I've ever seen... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ny_gun Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Re: Straight razor or electric razor? [ QUOTE ] Mach 3 for me. The electrics just don't do the same kind of job. [/ QUOTE ] I agree. However about a month ago I switched from the Mach 3 to the Gillette Fusion Power and will never go back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
