So what do you shave with?

[Maksim 1,504]

I just got an email from Art of Shaving.... the shaving store for snobs. lol. Personally, I can't leave the house without shaving, and last year, can count on one hand the number of days I did not shave... 3. That was during USPSA Mid Atlantic Sectional when my skin got sunburned and it would hurt to shave, so skipped it for 2 days.

 

Currently using the Gillette Fusion.... but thinking of switching to a safety razor, or a straight razor...

 

What do you shave with?

Decided back in November to grow a mountain man beard haven't shaved since

Shave? Blasphemy !

 

I've had some sort of facial hair since I was able to grow fuzz on my face, But when I did need to shave , ussually neck or around my beard , just a regular disposable razor with hot water.

[StriderTB 10]

I switch between a Schick Quattro, a Merkur 180 long handle safety razor, and a Norelco electric. Depends on how much time I have, and how much I care about how my shave looks.

 

I'm still experimenting with blades for the Merkur, haven't found one I really like yet. I do like The Art of Shaving's shaving cream, and I use one of their Pure Badger brushes when I'm not using the electric.

Safety razor for the first pass(it's a Merkur, the blade is an Astra). Second pass against the grain is a Gillette Fusion Pro Glide. I forget what shaving cream I use. I use a pure badger brush.

I'm weird, I know, but it gets me an awesome shave and I'm not complaining.

[Maksim 1,504]

Same thing... switched to Art of Shaving oil, shaving cream, after shave lotion with their badger brush... no more nicks.... except when I did not use the oil.

Haha me too. Before that was a Gillette fusion. Since November absolutely nothing. Although I'm thinking of a trim up soon since this beard is getting out of control.

Throw away razor , no soap , oil , gel or any fancy stuff.

[henrym 19]

Gilette Fusion. Not allowed more than 2 days growth.

Maks,

Missed those new fangled lectric things.

 

Select-Shave

[Maksim 1,504]

pete, you are right.... but is that even shaving? or just killing your skin with a belt sander?

 

will add it now.

I use an old safety razor. Mines a 1963 or 65 Gillette Travel Tech. Love it.

[Rifleman1 32]

Gilette Trac II handle circa 1971 using disposable cartridges.

 

Not sure where that fits in on the poll since the handle is not disposable but the cartridges are.

[Sandy 44]

Daisy , pink plastic disposable . Never let me down. No shaving cream.

[dajonga 397]

Merkur Hefty Classic.

Very cool place to get shaving supplies. Tons of different soaps.

[Smokin .50 1,907]

Norelco Triple Header, usually @ 60-70 MPH and I get a "breastastically" close shave w/ NO "motorboat" complaints from the misus!

[Celraysoda 7]

I shave with this....

Nah, any blue disposable with two blades and the strip works fine for me. Tried straight razors before. Much happier collecting them than using them.

An old lawn mower blade...

Maks if you need any Art of Shaving stuff, there's stores all around my office in NYC...

 

I use an electric - Panasonic Arc 4 Nano - Does a good job but I'm not very hairy... Love the cleaning system too. Had it for almost 4 years now, replaced the foil and blades once. It gets in close and leaves my face smooth.

[djg0770 481]

Safety razor or disposable here, when I shave, which is like 2x a week or less.

[Maksim 1,504]

Nick, there is an Art of Shaving in Freehold mall.

 

Humn, forgot to add option... "I am asian, and do not grow facial hair"

 

lucky bastards. =P

Could be worse, you could be Italian or Greek or some such and have had to shave since you were 5 yrs old.

[Soju 153]

I still grow less hair on my face than most high school students. So when I am working every day, just an electric razor is all I use. If I'm off for about 4 days or more, and therefore haven't shaved, I use a Mach 3. I haven't shaved my upper lip in over 3 months, and most people have no idea I have a mustache (sort of) unless they are right in front of me and the light hits it right!

[JonF 79]

Like Sgt. Slaughter, i shave with a blowtorch.

[HardCorr 0]

I use my grandfather's badger hair brush, shaving soap and a Mach 3. Never get any razor burn using the brush.

[Rob0115 1,105]

I'd like to go straight razor. I use King of Shaves gel. English company just bought buy Remington I think. It's cheap and fantastic, saw it Ina playboy review as best buy for shave stuff.

[rightisright 3]

Fusion w. whatever gel is on sale. I also shave my head, well the half that still has hair. So a safety razor or ,Hayseuus fofend, a straight razor are out of the question.

[silverado427 10,731]
