I don't shave with blades, I just trim all the hair I have with an electric razor at 3mm, but from what I know the multiple blades spread pressure over more edges so youre not as likely to cut yourself

what i hate about multiblades is that hair constantly gets stuck in them, it's a ridiculous design flaw

WEISHI Long Handle Version Butterfly Open Double Edge Safety Razor is the one i've been using for a couple years. It's a little over $15 on amazon. Blades, soap and brush are the important part, not so much the safety razor.

There is no rational reason to shave
unless you need to wear airtight respirator masks.

Other than that, shaving is /fa/ cancer.

About three shaves.

The blade is so sharp and your movements so gentle that you know when the blade sticks, again so sharp you don't feel the pain.

It takes finesse for sure, but don't be afraid to try. A starter kit with replacement blade inserts is like $25.

>>59256958
How often do you the sharpen the blades and how long does it take? Because simply replacing the blades like in a safety razor seems easier.

I absolutely hate facial hair but razors absolutely kill my neck. Ideally I'd like to be baby smooth every morning, no stubble. But shaving gets the skin on my neck so raw that it's all red and bumpy for 2-3 days.

I use cheap disposable razors and conditioner as a lubricant. How badly am I fucking up?

>>59257181
I have this amd I cam confirm that it is a fantastic product. For like a total of 35-45$ you can shave for like two years.
Would recommend

>>59261850
Shave every other day instead of every day. Lotion n shit

>>59261850

I'm 23 yet I don't need to shave. I just use small scissors to cut the 3 hairs that may sometimes pop up on my face.

I use this. Really saves you unnecessary spends on (((shaving soap))), (((safety razors))), (((aftershave lotions))), it cuts head hair, trims pubic hair, and is actually a technology with precise microelectronics inside, not some 200 year old hipster garbage.

>>59261704
It is easier.

You know, you could also sharpen the blade on a DE razor, but very few people CBA.

Lel, I shudder to think of what you look like

Shaving sucks.
Why isn't there a pill or cream that permanently removes body hair yet?

>>59256410
I'm not.

I moved from disposable shit to DE to electric.

Shaving with a double edge takes more time and the shave is only slightly better than electric.

I have had my ear, nose, and back hair permanently removed through laser treatment.

I've been using that electric fusion pro glide or something. really small and runs on 1 AA. Used the closest attachment so much I wore the plastic down and cracked and now the 2nd is starting to do the same thing.

I like having stubble so any good electrics that won't break in a year?

Thoughts on Astra vs Shark blades? Or any other good blades. I've only tried the Shark Super Stainless and the newer Shark Chrome and Shark Stainless won by a long shot.

Every morning I wake up only to see the face I'd grown to loath stare back at me in the mirror, whiskey still lingers on this fool's breath from another night wasted.
Blacked out.
Erased.
The way it should be.

The only solace I find on these mornings is the cold, hard steel of my classic straight shaving razor. A fine blade with a dangerously sharp edge that I've honed to a mirror sheen for the closest shave of my gnarled face. Now I may have a self-destructive streak, but I have never been the suicide type. You know, the ultimate self-destruction. However there is a certain, power, a feeling you get when you handle a classic straight shaving razor, especially one as fine as mine, of riding that cold hard steel edge like a bull. A massive steed that cares not what direction you give it, you're just glad it hasn't gored you yet. The exhilaration of passing such a blade, a fine sharp classic straight shaving razor, mere millimeters from your carotid artery where one slip would mean certain death is unlike any other. Any shake or quiver and your throat is wide open spraying in every direction, and you will be found lain on a crimson red sheet on your bathroom floor. That will give that asshole landlord quite a surprise next time he comes around. No rent this month boss, heh.

I've been using an epilator. If I can go a day or two without shaving (ie weekends,) I'll use it to pluck the hairs, then use an electric shaver the rest of the week to manage the ones that didn't get pulled.

>>59263905
On your face?
You must not have much facial hair.
That shit would literally tear your skin off if you had any amount of man beard.

>>59262086
He is, they're his razors and he uses bar soap. I figured conditioner would at least be better.

i use an electric shaver because it doesn't cut the hairs clean meaning you don't get sharp stubble, it tears the hairs.

>>59256410

might as well cut your balls off while you're at it

>better quality shave

Not in my experience.

Cartridge and safety give about the same shave.

But it is a lot easier to 'feel' what is shaved and isn't while you do it. I find I miss less with a safety razor. It is also pretty much just as hard to cut yourself with a safety razor as it is with a cartridge.

Safety razors are also considerably cheaper, though the good blades are $1 a pop here (merkhur).

Electric razors are trash though.

>>59263941
On my face. I've never grown things to beard length. And I know well enough not to use an epilator on any hair than a few mm in length.
