Really never used one? Damn good effort then.. Is there a special way of using it

apply to cheek carefully at approximately 30 degree angle and shave with the grain also u have to move it in a vertical motion do not and I mean do not even slide it across your face horizontally as this should be obvious it will cut u

Apparently this is one of the best bang for buck electric trimmers out there http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/160859989616?ssPageName=STRK:MESINDXX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1436.l2649 Some reviews on the Amazon page here.

I researched it ages ago it's been on my eBay wish list for over a year.. still haven't gotten around to buying one :ermm:

Due to bad shaving rash I use a double edge razor when I do have to shave, end result is 10x better than using disposables but the process is time consuming and takes a few goes to get it right

Parents purchased a Phillips 3 Head Electric razor for me for my 16th... The thing used to burn my shin , and left my skin feeling hot. Over the years I 've tried many electric razors , but they are all sitting in the draw today as new as the day I brought them. For many years now I used a Safety Razor with Wilkinson Blades ...

Warning , if you've never used one, and you are coming from a disposal unit , be very careful, as these cut and are very very sharp..

Is that a Henckels blade? I hear they are very good.

Whoa - the old cut throat! Jeeez - would my hand be steady enough? But they do cut super close that is for sure. Very few shops use them these days.

I used sorbelene to stop the bit of rash from the disposable triple blade jobs I use - - and a hot towel to start with for a closest possible job - but it does take time and not an every day thing.
