    I did not know before this mega that people shave their faces with electric razors. I have always considered them to be a coarse, big, inaccurate tool mostly for body hair. Never even considered putting one up to my face... it seems like it wouldn't work well Idk? Fair play if you legit do not have money for disposables or other manual razors, I've always thought the lil guys got a closer shave.

      I only have an electric razor, maybe I'm just bad at shaving but :yea: it doesn't work well, always have stubble.

        Understandable!! There does seem to be a correlation at least between using electric razors and stubble complaints, however.

      It works pretty well for me after a few laser sessions and hrt, but when I had more coarse hair it always left things prickly, which was awful enough that I had stopped using it for a while.

      I tried to use an electric razor but couldn't get a smooth shave so I switched and learned how to wet shave instead.

      You can knick yourself but it can give you better results and even if you do get a cut or two they are quick to heal. Using a light moisturiser afterwards generally helps too.

        Manual razor + conditioner as shaving cream + quick wipe for cuts with paper towel + aloe moisturiser afterword == even more kissable wife meow-melt

          It works well that, plus if you go slow and are careful you can get a shave without cuts..

          But i'd rather deal with tiny cuts and have a smooth face/neck moomin

        I think much like the conditioner thing, this is knowledge that needs to be spread prolly.
