Thanks for the tips, everyone, and good to see you here, Bryce
I wonder if, now that I'm smoothly shaved, if I do this again tomorrow, before there's any serious regrowth, I'll be able to pull it off smoothly...
--Previous Message-- : Try this...shave normally with your DE of : choice, and leave the problem areas alone. : Use your electric for touch-up in these : areas. Works great for me...I love my four : pass DE shave, but there are areas I just : can't get clean without pressure and tricky : maneuvering. The electric does great for : that. : : I have the Braun mentioned as well (the 8995 : or whatever - the one with the cleaning : base). It does a respectable job with a : daily shave, and has a few adjustable : aspects - fixed or pivoting head, sideburn : trimmer, etc. The cleaning/charging base is : neat, but it takes $10 cleaning carts that : last about a month or two depending on how : often you clean the head. : : You'll find that the differences with most : models of foil cutters tend to be in the : foil itself. The Braun I use has openings : in the foil shaped like little octagons. : Each edge is pretty much like a blade : surface, and the block cuts the hair by : scissoring it off against these surfaces. : What this means is that it can cut in almost : any direction smoothly. The block also : floats, so you can press harder against your : face, getting a closer shave. :
