Should YOU buy an electric shaver?

You should buy an electric shaver if:

  1. You want to save time shaving- You wont have to shave over the same areas again and again, so you can complete a shave within a fraction of the time that you could with a manual razor.
  2. You have sensitive skin- If you tend to cut yourself when shaving with a manual razor, an electric shaver may be for you. Its much harder to cut yourself with an electric shaver since it doesnt shave so excruciatingly close to the skin. The chances of suffering from razor bumps (ingrown hairs) are also far less likely when shaving with an electric shaver.
  3. You want to save money- Electric shaver blades wont dull as nearly as often as manual razor blades. You can expect the blades on an electric shaver to last atleast a year, many lasting much, much longer. This results in saving a lot more money in the long run.
  4. You want to save MORE money- You can achieve a great shave with an electric shaver without the application of any pricey gels, creams or other products.

How to Eliminate Razor Burn and Irritation from Electric Shavers

While some men can get away with anything when it comes to shaving, some of us aren’t that lucky. Razor burn is that burning sensation that follows soon after completing a shave and is usually associated with redness and even swelling. While razor burn affects mostly men who shave frequently with a razor blade, it can still be an issue in the case of electric shaving. In this article we’ll see what we can do in order to reduce it to a minimum. What causes electric razor burn? One of the reasons men opt for an electric shaver is the comfort during and after the shave. The majority will see a clear improvement, but razor burn can still be present to a certain degree.

In this article we’ll take an in-depth look at the most popular electric shaver brands and see how they stack up against each other. A short history of the electric shaver The early 1900s marked a milestone in men’s grooming as it was the time when King C. Gillette came up with a successful iteration of the safety razor. Fast forward 20 years and Col. Jacob Schick, an American (and later Canadian) entrepreneur, was patenting the first electric shaver. This first concept, relying on a shaving head powered by a bulky external motor, wasn’t exactly practical and also required the use of both hands. Later iterations addressed these shortcomings by fitting all the components into a compact design. This allowed Schick to achieve massive commercial success, selling more than 1.5 million shavers until h...
