I use Gillette Fusion as I find its softer on my skin - I get very bad razor burn and end up using load of gell - find the Gilette the best. I also have to make sure the hairs have had a good soak to soften them.
If you've got a full, manly helping of beardy bits, they're pretty awful. Very oftend they'll miss hairs, so you end up with wispy bits left, plus if you've left it a couple of days, they really do pull on the hairs. I've also got rather sensitive skin, and found electric shaving rather irritating on the face.
I guess though if you're prepared to pay for a really expensive one, they may be better.
I hate shaving - Beard or head. I was listening to Radio 4 a while ago and they were talking about shaving. There is a pill you can get that will make your hair adn beard fall out. unfortunatly it will make every other peice of hair fall out as well.
