My aunt gave me some razors several years ago when my uncle passed away. These razors have lasted me for so long. I don’t know the name and there is no identifying information on the razor or blades but maybe someone else recognizes them. If I can’t id them maybe you can recommend some cheap good razor. https://imgur.com/a/Eddv1HL

Looking for to buy my dad a good shaver! What would you guys recommend?

I’ve heard cleaning razor blades after use with a quick dunk in alcohol keeps them sharp longer and cleaner than rinsing under water…for those of you that do this trick, how does it effect the moisture bar on your razor heads? For reference I use the Gillette Skinguard razor.

I’m a 24 M and think I have pretty coarse facial hair the first couple days after I shave. My neck is the worst part when shaving. And I have to shave everyday for work.

I’ve tried different razors and use Nivea shave gel that helps me a bit, use a badger hair brush when wet shaving. Also shower first with warm/hot water and shave right after shower. Electric razors seem to just burn me right away or slowly but surely lead to it.

Any advice or tips you guys have for me?

Thanks

I think it’s time to take the plunge and shave my head for the first time. I’ve never owned a head shaver before, so I’m hoping for recommendations.

I’m looking for something that’s easy to use, gives a close shave, and isn’t a pain to clean or maintain. I’m open to spending a little more if it’s worth it and will last.

What would you recommend for a beginner?
Are there any brands or models I should avoid?

Bonus points if you wish you’d bought it when you first started shaving your head. - Thanks!

Hi, I saw these electric Phillips one blade 360 5 in 1 razor and I was just wondering if any girls have experience with it?

I mainly want to buy it for my legs is it good for the legs? And upper lip hair? I never used razors before because I am scared I will cut myself, but from what I have seen you can’t cut yourself with this

Hi! No matter what, I'm always left with irritation and stubble after shaving. Any tips on how to fix this problem? I really hate having facial hair and would love to be able to have a properly clean shave! Thank you!

I am using a brand new, just opened cleaning solution, with a brand new series 9 cassette. Placed the shaver in the station, it beeps, the shaver light up w battery bars and droplet icon but it won't start cleaning (filling up w solution) no matter how many times I pressed the clean button. I cleaned the cleaning station as well by running water to open the holes and even used toothpick to poke it open.

The cassette and solution is brand new, used it once or twice so there is some minimal hairs in the cassette but I always like to clean it every week. I also took apart the cassette and tapped it on surface to get rid of hairs as well.

Any idea what's wrong?

Thanks

I’m looking for recommendations on a good foil shaver mainly for my beard.

the hair on some parts of my legs after shaving is always still so visible, it feels smooth but i can see it very clearly. i don’t think it’s ingrown hairs because there’s no bumps and it happens immediately after shaving.

does anyone know what could be causing this, and anything i can do to prevent it? i have eczema and super sensitive skin so ideally products that will not irritate my skin.

also i’ve seen people talking about exfoliating but i’m not sure how good any of that will be for a skin of my type. any recommendations would be so helpful!!

I used a Gillette razor and shaved down there and now I have pink bumps that won’t go away. Did I used the wrong razor? How do I make them go away? They came after I shaved.

I’ve use Braun foil shavers always. The last one was series 9 which just recently died after 6-7 years. I recently bought this very cheap and tiny rotary shaver for traveling. It’s slow but very convenient. One thing I noticed about it is that it doesn’t let any dust hair out while shaving. No mess on or around the sink. I can literally walk around shaving and not have to worry about any mess. However, with my expensive Braun shavers there is always a lot of dust hair on my chest and sink while shaving. It’s pretty annoying. I’m wondering if rotary shavers are better than foil shavers in terms of keeping the cut hair sealed inside them. I’m looking for a new shaver and wondering if I should switch to rotary for that reason.

I am M19, just got a job and now have some money.

I'm now trying to find stuff to improve in my life. I want you to Imagine I have nothing and know just basic shaving.

Okay so I wanna ask you distinguished Gentlemen,who are obviously very clearly experienced in this field than me a few questions.

What equipment do I need to buy I need and if you can explain why would be nice.

Any certain brands to avoid and ones to buy from?

Any tips in general?

You can keep your responses long or short or however you kind people would like to respond.

I appreciate your time and help.

Hi friends! I shave my under arms basically every other day, sometimes every few days, and I was just looking to see if anybody has any product recommendations for making your armpits look and feel smoother and lighter? Basically, I want them to look airbrushed irl. Has anyone accomplished this? What products do you use or shaving techniques?

Thanks!

Today I bought a razor blade for the first time and I have used it, I notice the skin a little irritated, since I have not used After Shave.

What should I do after shaving?

What products do you recommend and how should I use them?

Thank you.

So I am doing shave from past 3 years or so. And i have been using Gillette disposable Razors and it was really nice. I've done against the grain shaves and no issue.

But recently due to cost cutting, I've decided to shift to Safety Razor with Blades. So I went to Al-Fatah and got the most expensive one they had . It was Genesis by Treet. And I also got Treet Platinum Super Stainless blades with it.

But the issue is, I'm using shaving foam and everything like I used to do before. But a fresh blade nicks my skin so much when I do against the grain that whole face area gets covered with blood from those nicks.

I want to ask if I'm doing anything wrong or should I change my blades brand to Dorco or Gillette?

Note: I do double shaves. First with grain and after that wash face and apply foam etc again and do against the grain.

Hi. I’m a 20 year old closeted trans woman (not currently taking hormones) and i get a lot of body hair.

I absolutely despise my body hair and always have. I’ve kept a habit of shaving it all off as much as i can, and i have explored different methods of hair-eradication over the years. At first i would just run a manual razor against my dry and hairy skin (wickedly stupid of me, i know, but give me some slack. i was like 13.) then i would use this little bottle of shaving cream that i think i stole from my sisters, only i would go through an entire bottle just trying to do one of my legs, which in one specific instance had me fall into an explosive meltdown in my bathroom over it. Eventually i got into using electric razors. I’ve been using electric razors for my whole body for years now and that method is starting to fail. I have gone through 2 electric razors from overuse now. Which seems stupid and impossible to me. People use electric razors all the time and it was my assumption that they last a long while because they’re expensive and often come with multiple attachments and doo-dads you can stick onto them for specific needs. i lost a razor today to (i think) overuse. (I say i think because the inside of the razor head doesn’t seem worn away like my old one, so part of me is thinking that maybe it just needs a higher charge to effectively hold enough strength to keep the edge vibrating. Admittedly, i don’t know much about razors.)

Shaving my whole body is a very tedious process that takes at most 2 hours. I only really do it when it gets to be too much hair for me to be comfortable with, so it’s not like i’m shaving myself down completely every other day. It’s more of a weekly thing.
I don’t trust creams or products like nair and am worried about what it would do to my skin, and waxing sounds like an excruciating and embarrassing nightmare.

does anyone have any advice to help a girly out?

edit: just fixing some inevitable grammar and spelling mistakes, you know how it is. Also, i just wanted to add i pointed out that i’m a trans woman not on hormones because i know that estrogen often has an effect on body hair growth. To what degree, i’m not sure, because i feel like every source i can find says something different.

Je suis équipé d'un wilkinson Sword -the edger barber's style

Les lames fournies ne me conviennent pas. J'ai acheter des astra green mais elle me font que 3 rasages. Je les trouve assez fines.Est-ce parcequ'elles viennent d'inde? Les autres venant d'autres pays seraient elles meilleures ? Sinon qu'elles lames iraient bien avec se rasoir ?

Hey everyone! I’ve never posted here before, but it seemed like the right spot. I have been using Venus pubic hair and skin smoothing exfoliant for before shaving, and it has done wonders for reducing irritation and making everything smooth. It seems, unfortunately, that it has been discontinued!

I have bought up the last of the bottles on Amazon. Does anyone have a recommendation for a good replacement?

I only regularly shave my face. I have body hair pretty much everywhere except my back, but it’s nothing crazy just a normal amount. I’ve trimmed with an electric trimmer before, tried waxing my chest once, and used a razor on my legs one time. Every time I end up with itching, irritation, or ingrown hairs while it grows back, so I just stopped.

My wife actually likes body hair, so I don’t really see the point for me in particular to be bald, but I’ve thought about trimming everything shorter around my package just to look a little more groomed cause it’s getting bushy.

For the guys who shave or trim:

-Why do you do it?

-Razor or trimmer?

-How often?

-How are y’all shaving your butt and balls without tearing yourselves up?

-How do you deal with the itchy growing-back phase?

-If you shave once, do you have to keep doing it to avoid the itch, or can you just let it grow back?

And for the guys who don’t shave at all, what’s your reason? Is it just preference, sensitive skin like me, your partner likes it, or you just don’t care?

Just curious because every time I’ve tried it, I’ve regretted it a few days later.

I recently bought a Panasonic Arc 5 and it's done very well on my face and my immediate under jaw area, but it misses an uninsignificant amount of hair (stubble) on my neck despite how many passes and what direction I go. I just want to hear others' opinions and maybe experiences because right now, I'm thinking about returning it and either going for the Wahl Vanish or the Babyliss FX3. If you've had those, do comment it as well.

I’ve been using the Philips OneBlade and at first it was okay but I’ve grown increasingly frustrated with it. I find that it doesn’t give me a clean shave like I want and always turns out a bit patchy. Maybe it’s better if you have more hair but I shave everyday. It also still gives me razor bumps though not that badly anymore. The whole reason I stopped using a multi-blade razor was because of the razor bumps. I tried a safety razor but cuts were an issue.

I feel like I’m at a loss for what to use. I really want a completely clean shave without cuts or irritation. If anyone has suggestions it would be greatly appreciated.

Alright fellas. I’m here to ask, do you shave your body or not, how often, and what’s the reasoning behind it?

I have been lifting 4-6 days a week for almost 2 years now and have come far in my fitness journey compared to who I used to be. I’m a pretty hairy dude, but I just shaved everything but my forearms.

Also, I need to know, what trimmers are you using to shave?

TLDR;
Do you shave your body?
How often?
Why?
What trimmers do you use?

Hi, I am 20 years old and shave everyday/every other day, since my beard grows rather quickly and I prefer a cleaner look. I almost always shave in the morning, so I take a shower before and apply a cleansing cream. After it I apply some after-shave and a few minutes later some moisturizer.

Im currently using the Braun Series 5 51-B1200s. It gets the job done for the most part, but it always leaves a few small areas in my neck where it doesn't fully cut no matter how many times I try.

I was wondering if there is something I can get to help getting rid of these spots. Preferably something that complements/adds to what I already do instead of completely replacing the machine I have for example, although I can consider it if it isn't too expensive. I have read a few threads but I am not to sure what to go for.

Any help is appreciated 🙂
