What do you guys like an why?
I'm getting the hang of using the DE and like it for beard reduction, but I noticed this AM when cruising over one day of growth that the electric does a nice job.
I'm using an inexpensive rotary style razor thats supposedly not the way to go, its a hand-me-down from my grandfather. Something he bought after years of using the DE.
My thoughts now are to reduce the beard with the DE and then maintain with the electric.
I've been able to avoid cutting myself with feather blades and i generally get a pretty decent shave with them. My troubles are this:
-On the ATG pass if I'm not extremely careful about blade angle I give myself horrible razor burn. For that reason I generally avoid the ATG pass and my shave is not as close because of it.
- I cant shave everyday with the DE because it tears my face up to do so, so ever other day is it.
- I dont always have time for 20 minutes of shaving in the morning, so i generally shave the day before and I dislike having stubble in meetings and other situations where I would rather look put together.
