see, i just use the blades for ages, the one ive got in now is so blunt, it might aswell write 'James' on it.

However, until it starts cutting me or refuses to shave any hair's off, its getting used (H)

Same here. Loved it too, but...

I actually read -after the purchase of course- that it shaves too close, where the hair is cut under the skin, which could give rise to a condition called "Pseudofolliculitis barbae", where the hair grows under the skin, fails to exit, causing a small red bump... (esp. if you have delicate skin and/or are prone to shave bumps)

The vibrations feel amazing, nonetheless.

A school friend who works with Gillette marketing convinced me to get it. He told me the electric impulses make the hair spike up, so it gets cut closer and easier. However, -after the purchase- I found that the vibrations only cause the blades to move to-and-fro in a "saw-like manner", making it cut much easier and sharper. And you don't need to shave an area more than once (partly true).

I really did good online research before getting it. I don't know why I had to read this all after buying it. Anyway, I also read that any shaving machine with more than 1-2 blades, cuts the hair too sharp, and allows it to pierce the skin and re-enter, so no regrets for me as the Mach 3 Turbo was my 2nd choice.

Best way to shave? At your barber. The old classic way. But I really don't trust it here because of all the possibilities of disease transmission (specially blood-borne diseases) if his equipement wasn't sterilized.... so I'm satisfied with my Power Nitro for now...

I never ever cut myself shaving until I started using a vibrating razor, now I do it almost every time, sometimes really big cuts too. I'm now torn between whether I should have it on or off, because it does shave much better when vibrating, but it also shreds my face.

never cut my face once with a manual shaver, maybe my skin is just "Rotherham-ified" and so, is harder.

that's due to hairs getting under your skin.

shave down twice, and then go up once.

I find that tends to happen when I use cheap shaving cream. When I use the good gel stuff it rarely happens.

well in the past I've used Nivea shave cream for men, L'oreal men expert and a whole buncha Gilette ones. Nivea seemed to be the best but I still got a few spots.

Kader: usually I go down once, up once... maybe I'll try that though

I'm like the only person I know of who never has shaving problems. I would like a manly stubble though, but my hair grows too soft:(

Yeah, I'm not gonna lie, the manly stubble is awesome. I definitely think I look better about a day and a half after shaving.

I can't get that properly, at last not yet. I could grow a mustache but there are places around my chin where the hair grows all soft and pathetic. It's annoying because when I come to America I will need to look 21 for obvious reasons and I was rather counting on growing a beard to back me up.

My father and two brothers can sprout sweet lookin' biblical beards in a couple of weeks and, and it takes me like 12 ******* months to develop my peach fuss into something a bit more denser and respectable.


What gives?

Two areas either side of my mouth don't grow any hair at all. I'm hoping things'll start sprouting sooner rather than later.

In my experience they're either going to check your ID, or they won't because its a shady bar and they don't care. How you look really doesn't matter.
