Good luck picking a razor.
wow, I find the opposite to be true. In the summer I shave immediately when I wake up cause my bedroom has the most AC and the bathroom can be a little warm & even a little sweat can cause drag and issues.
For the same reason I shave before and not after a shower. If I forget, I wait no less then 20 minutes to ensure I am 100% dry.
I get ingrown hairs form a blade and not from an electric. But everyone is different.
You know that ingrowns come from to close and the hair retracting under the skin and the hole closes. You just have to pick your poison. Me, I chose none of the above.

We cross our bridges when we come to them and burn them behind us, with nothing to show for our progress except a memory of the smell of smoke, and a presumption that once our eyes watered.

I would agree. My main issue is severe shaver's rash when I do my pubes. But after each shave, if one uses some Dove deoderant on the shaved area, the rash never reappears and the area is very smooth!
Tank, you're a FREAK!!!! "I find that when I shave my pubes..."
... WTF is wrong with you, my good man!hock:
Oh and Maytag, if you let me know what you want I may be able to score it for you at cost and then send it to you. I have access to a lot of this kind of stuff.

Skipper the cigar aFISHinodo Wrote:In order to get close an electric makes thousands of tiny nicks on your face (especially around the neck area). I found the Norelco triple head razors to be the gentlest. Still they take some getting used to.
In order to adapt you must shave every day (not necessary once you fully adapt but if your beard gets too long it yanks the hairs out and this just plain hurts). At first you want to shave as lightly as possible. And use an after shave (I like just plain witch hazel-it closes the pores and can help to prevent that rash). You can skip a few days in the beginning. Once your face and beard adapts you can get as close and rough as you wish with no repercussions. I shave every day with my triple header and it's a snap. If I miss 2 days or more I use a blade to avoid the yanking syndrome.
Now, you can spend over $300 on a norelco, or as little as $75. I like the cheapies. No rechargable for me (I dont do a lot of shaving where there is no power outlet & the batteries is just one more source for failure). Let the heads be your guide.
I agree with skipper
Takes two or three weeks of lightly shaving and not getting a close shave before your face builds up an immunity to it. A lot of guys give up and go back to shaving with the regular razor and have to start the process over again.
