I gave up and the endless scrubbing with a Norelco and went back to a disposable in the shower. Do it by feel, no beard to trim or such.
My one try at a foil had me returning it immediatley. Rotary worked, just misses a lot and required a lot of repetition to get a close shave.
I had the same experiences as you ... years ago!
Was hoping that things had changed.
“...a disposable in the shower. Do it by feel, no beard to trim or such.”
Exactly. Add a little lounging under the hot water to soften the stubble...and it’s wham, bam, thank you ma’am.
[Darn. Been stuck inside too long. Now I’m discussing my showering habits with another man. Just promise you’ll respect me in the morning.]
Best way to go. Shave in the shower. Most guys don't realize that the face must be washed and left wet for a good 5 minutes before shaving with a razor. A little soap is all that is needed for a good smooth shave. Shaving cream is a waste of money and does not soften the beard as soap and water does.
