Shaving ?!?!

[t88_power]

How do you guys shave ?

What machine/blade do you use ?

Is using a shaving machine better than the gillette manual shaver (gillette III/turbo/red/green) ?


Do it make a difference on the skin ?


Where to get a good machine and how much do they go for ?
etc

[Racing Replica]

Phillishave, the one that gives shaving cream by giving pressure on a certain button in the shaver! .. I got it from Geant for 36 dinars!

And to avoid skin sensitivity issues, try to use a cream that matches your skin!

[t88_power]

Guys..Gillette machIII turbo is what I use

brand ? price ? experience ? where from ?

[A.Z]

5ol cha7la Otto this is sa6oor :p
anyway I use different types of gillette

[ADM]

I cant shave earlier than once every 6 days.

First I trim off my stubble using a hair trimmer, to the lowest size possible. Then I wash my face with warm water and massage my face with it to make my skin go softer and hot water helps open your pores.

Then dry my face with a tower and wet it slightly with hot water again. I then apply Gillette Fusion shaving gel with Aloe Vera to my face and rub it in with my hands. I leave it on for about 3 minutes and it makes my skin go even softer. I then use a Gillette Mach3 Turbo Power razor (the vibrating one, and it does actually make shaving easier) and apply gentle pressure and shave. One swipe is enough to shave the hair off, but thats only in one direction.

Wash the razor constantly to clear off hair built up in between the razors using hot water.

Then shave against the direction of hair growth with concentration and pressure as needed to make sure I have a clean and all round smooth shave.

Apply Aloe Vera gel after shave gel to my face which you just leave on for about 10 minutes or so and your skin absorbs it. It helps rebuild your skin surface as it might have been damaged or scraped during shaving.

Usually I don't cut myself, unless I had a spot somewhere on my throat.

Shaving takes at least 2 hours of my time, and I make it a time for myself.

I have stopped shaving for almost a year now. This year, I have only shaved 4 times so far. I stopped shaving since the 20th of December 2006 and all I do is trim off my stubble. That way, you don't feel itchy the next day!

sensitive skin? we have metro's on this forum , oh my bad bahrain is filled with those

Helps wash all the trimmed hair off your face and the warm water relaxes your skin.

Laser Surgey

i don't remember how much it will cost , but you'll save time and your face will be happy if you are sensitive


الزبدة it's the best solution unless you want to grow beard within two years (they say)

Its too expensive, and you have to keep having sessions. And you do not have the option of changing the way you look when you want to. Like for instance, you decide you want to keep a goatee (saksooka) or to start growing a mustache, how do you do so without hair on your face?

[ZEX]

yeah you can't change your look so fast

some ppl do it only for the neck (because it's the most sensitive point)

and about sessions , i think it's just three sessions , then you don't have to go until two years (they say , i'm not sure)

[P15-GIII]

I shave twice a week on business days and once on most weekends.
I have very sensitive skin (hence the need to shave frequently, as hair growth causes irretability in my face)..

I think it depends on what you need..
Razor blades give a cleaner shave, and depending on the number of blades, will last the longest till hair growth reoccurs.

Machines trimmers only shorten the hair, doesnt shave it clean.. Shaver machines do, but their a bit annoying to use out of my experience.

What i usually do, is shave with a 2 or 3 blade generic gilette razor, then finish it off with a shaver machine.
hope this helps

[Striker]

the 5 blade one??

I got Brown that one u see in the AD's for around 35-40 BD don't remember ....and BRO don't even think about it is a PS...I used the trimmer and I swear man It trimed my face into stripes ...then you should have a face as big as a white boared to do what show's in the ad's

[Silvervette]

The Gillette with the 5 blades is gooooooooooooooooood

[designo]

I used to think shaving was all down to the blade! Boy was I wrong!

Change your shaving cream!

My recommendation, get King of Shaves! I get mine from London, but I think i saw the older foam models in Nasser Pharmacy.

[Striker]

Foam???

Isn't gel better than foam??

I use Gillette Mach III Turbo gel, it isn't THAT great but gets the job well done as it's the only gel I've ever used in my life!

I guess I'm still not an expert when it comes to shaving!

The gel lathers and turns into foam you twit!

I purchased a Braun wet shaver, and it is the biggest waste of 60BD ever. It used to give me rashes, it would scrape my face, and the wet shave thing was not lather, it was some lame ass after shave liquid it was ejecting onto the blades. Pointless. I have not used it since I started using a razor.

[Striker]

Gel gets all around your face and you can feel the difference while the pure foam is different! stfu!

Same issue with me on the Braun...waste of money!
