Electric razors are total fucking snake oil, I've bought 3 of them with the notion they'd be of utility when I had some commitment at night or I was on vacation and too lazy to really give a fuck about waking up and ripping my skin off for repsectability.

So the electrics purportedly weren't garbage, I think the cheapest was a buck fifty-I've gone through the hydra-headed design of the norelcos, then went for what was at the time the best panasonic made, then about 2 years ago i picked up a braun that's got a huge fucking LED screen on it and claims to be self-cleaning.

All fucking garbage, I'd be better off rocking stubble because it'd be uniform. Electrics when they're actually cutting facial hair invariably shit the bed on large patches of your face no matter how many times you run the thing over it,

The only redeeming aspect about the fuckers is the blade that cleans up the back of your neck, but I can get something roughly commensurate at cvs for ten to twenty bucks that looks much better at doing the same task.

The fucking things are more impressive than any Jewish Ponzi scheme because they'll never die and I consider myself fairly smart but I've easily wasted 500 dollars on the concept of a product.

1. Don't waste money on the expensive units. Buy the cheapest Braun usually around 30-50 bucks. Bad thing is the foil replacement is usually 30 bucks so I only do that once before I throw the whole unit away and buy another.
2. Foil shavers shave closer than a blade. If you don't believe it shave with a blade and then try the foil right after your skin dries.
3. Best use of the foil is in the car while you are driving. At home I would rather shave in the shower with the cheapest Bic single blade - don't even need shaving cream if you do that. Single blade Bics are also good for shaving a 3-4 day scrub because they don't clog up like double blades.
