Electric shaver Peronsally. Would like to get a proper strait razor & badger brush. Haven't had the chance to lean old school shaving yet.

If it gets long I use an electric clipper. Same one I use for my head. Then finish off with teh basic two AA Philishave electric. Gets it close enough for my taste. I use my fingers to tell if its done, if I feel any stubble I'm back @ it. The electric does the trick, might take a few passes to get it right.

I suck at facial hair :/

I get wicked razor burn on my neck from my electric, but it's great to have in the bedroom in case the gf is complaining about my chin whiskers tickling her (I can zip them off real quick).

Usually I use Schick Xtreme3 ... blades are usually much cheaper than gillette mach3. Usually shave in the shower as well, I find that shaving under a hot shower is easier on my skin.

Thought about getting a straight razor ? I hear there isn't any rash @ all after. i get rash after electric shaving. forking shit gets on my nerves look like a right red neck would rather have cuts.

Nobody cares, just like you. So don't bother seeing if anybody does because you don't so we don't. Get a straight razor like tainted4ever then we might me interested. Laughing

Electric shaver with trimmer. But I hate clean shaving, so I just trimm facial hair a few times a week. This gives me 3-days unshaven look.

I plan to replace my shaver with trimmer that has length settings.

electric if i get thick
regular razor with razor blades daily
and those cut throat razors (got one awesome one) once a month when i get balls to shave it.
Hard as fuck. It's easier to get a barber to do it Laughing by yourself in the mirror, you have to look upward and slowly gently go upward with the razor. Scary as fuck since once I was sort of shaking Laughing thought i'd have the balls to do it when i was sort of tipsy... almost slit my throat. Laughing Laughing but it's a proper razor. I love it. Once a month with it and only the neck. Face, i've yet o master shaving my face with a cut throat razor.

I wax and shave. Waxing is far better. It depends on what is easier atm when I have to go out in a hurry. I don't think there is nothing wrong with hair tho, it is natural.

How do you shave your ballsack, I tried it once but got an ingrown hair on my testicles and shit got swollen and stuff, very painful indeed. I thought about using scissors to cut all the hair from my testicles but it took too long, so then I decided I was gonna use my girlfriends ladyshave but even that didn't get me the result I wanted. So anyone got any idea's that aren't that painful, I want balls you can lick without feeling the sharp hairs.

I also had a few pubic hairs on the shaft of my cock but I ain't touching that shit with a razor, so for those I took some sharp scissors and cut them one by one.

@Chin

I don't place much faith in people who swear that the closest shave is only possible with those evil looking throat slitters. Not talking blades that you place in a holder here but those things you sharpen on leather and stone and stuff. To me, those people are like the audiophiles who say the best sound qualities still comes from 45s. I think that's just a case of nostalgia and thinking 'old is gold'. And besides the macho factor of doing things the hard way.

And ofcourse, no shaving foam in a can for these people either! You have to use shaving soap and a brush. And knowing these people, it can't be any nylon (perish the thought) brush either but made from the hair of some hapless animal probably on the verge of extinction. And knowing these people, it can't be a hapless animal on the verge of extinction at any time of the year either. The poor critter has to be probably shot during mating season when the hair is at its most luxurious although it won't help the poor bugger get any because some idiot will shoot him for that same hair. And if you don't use any of the mentioned items with the same aforementioned quality then you won't get the 'full effect' so there's always an excuse. Sad

There's probably even some site detailing the exact procedure with a forum full of people asking why they don't get the full effect. And there's probably some forum guru who claims to have gotten it but can't/won't reveal his secret because according to him 'each person must find his own way to Valhalla'.

Having said that, new isn't always better as proven by electric shavers. But a twin blade razor with gel works for me. Haven't yet moved on to those Mach 7 or whatever. Don't even know how many blades there are anymore.Very Happy

That's the way to go if your just keeping your beard in line to be sure. ^

I hear what your saying about the badger brush Swing, I intend to get an antique brush & straight razor set @ some point. I know how to get a good edge on a blade so I'm not fussed about it being an used one. More than anything its a skill I want to learn. Will most likely just use the electric on a day t day basis. Use the cut throat as a novelty piece for variety like Inj.

Cheese just get some of that hair be gone jell stuff women use. Makes the hairs just wash off in the shower. I use my clipper, plus electric razor personally. Its not perfect (five a clock shadow on the balls Laughing ), but helps my crotch stay cool in teh summer.
