Yes, it's another boring, Old Guy thread. This one's about electric shavers.
Somehow, every day, I seem to gash myself shaving with my Fusion electric razor. It has 5 blades, gel lubricant, pivots, but still leaves me with what feels like a pint less blood every time I use it. Been using them for a few years. I also use lubricating shave cream, but still doesnt help. If I go outside and my wife's not with me, I usually have blood dripping from my chin.
Not sure why, but a few days ago I decided to rediscover electric shavers. I bought 3 different ones based on internet reviews. To my utter surprise and delightment, none of them gave me any abrasions, irritation or rashes. The Remington VIP I got for Christmas 30 years ago was a painful experience. These are a pleasure.
The 3 I got were Remington, Panasonic and Braun. All cost between $150 - $250 but there was not much difference between the 3, the Panasonic just did a better job and was more delicate with my skin.
Im probably going to keep the Panasonic. Has the widest head, cuts closer than a straight edge, and is cordless. Its also wet'dry, so it's good on the go or in the shower.
You're probably asking why in the world is this relevant to Mavicpilots? It isn't, thats why it's in off-topic. However, I know Im not alone in the age 60+ bracket and thought I would share my new technological toy with you fellow tech lovers. Whom of you hates walking outside looking like they are just learning how to shave? Not me!
