Shaving is an entirely personal matter for a man.
I use an electric if i am in a rush, but I don;t like it because it pulls my skin and gives me a rash.
I usually shave with a Giletter 3-blade jobbie and some aloe vera gel because i have skin like a girl.
I loathe shaving, but occasionally pay £8.00 for a cuthroat shave at a local babers. There are no hot towels, which I do like, and last time, he did it quite badly, I had to shave again when i got home - so no more going there.
Then, after a brainwave, i wandered down to our local Asian community, about ten minutes from where i work, and found a Muslim barber.
He gave me a full face massage, cream, shaving soap, lathered for about three minutes, cuthroat shave, water spray, another face massage, aftershave, and moisturiser, finishing up with another full face massage - whole thing took twenty-five minutes, and he charged be £3.50!
I have been back a couple of times, and since he is open until seven in the evening every day except Monday, I am going at least once a week.
I reccomend anyone to find a local Asian barber - much better than a 'grooming salon'.
