Straight razor, safety razor or electric trimmer?
« on: September 08, 2013, 08:59:21 PM »
So which shaving tool do you use for your shaving for the most part? A straight razor, safety razor or electric shaver? i have attached pictures of the three shaving tools in case some of our international members are not sure of which one is which.
As for me I must say the straight razor is phenomenal and gives me a sharper shave but I tend to use a safety razor with cartridges for the convenience. If Im feeling especially oldschool that day i will use a straight razor no doubts!
Your turn!

(edit: in the title I meant to say electric shaver, not electric trimmer. Electric shavers are also known as electric razors by the way)

i do safety razors but more due to convenience than anything else, plus i'm not the most skilled male known to inhabit the earth and i run a risk of decapitating myself...

I actually learned to shave with a straight razor some time ago and havent gone back to safety razors to be honest. I was a straight razor man all my life until last year that one of my brothers got me a straight razor set.
Am curious to try electric razors however, might give one a try upon a good recommendation if any of you have  :D
