Badger & Blade

I don't have time for anything else but electric. LOL

But does it run on XP or Vista?

You'd be surprised about the time requirement. I've now gotten to where I can lather the soap, cover my face, shave, wash, and apply lotion in under a minute without nicking myself.

If you can top 30 seconds, then more power to you. That's what it takes me with my Braun Series 7. But I also have a goatee.

 

[Sapper PE LS]

30 seconds is a little bit of a reach, I'd probably shave the first three layers of skin off in the process. But this conversation reminds me of the episode of the office where Michael is telling Dwight (I think, maybe its the other guy) how much more efficient he is than Dwight and that's why he's the manager. He says, "for example, how long does it take you to brush your teeth?" To which Dwight (or whoever) responds, "I don't know, a minute?". and Michael says, "See! It takes you twice as long as me."

Sap and EM, do you re-lather between passes?

 

[Sapper PE LS]

No, usually not.

I go with grain, rinse razor / flip to other edge, then up grain; then re-lather, side-grain on neck anyways, touch up wherever else. I only blade shave every other day, use an electric on in-between days, so if I get up maybe 3 min. earlier on blade shave days, I have no probs. I don't mind taking a little bit longer, I have to get up at 5-ish so am not fully conscious till after getting face washed & soaped up anyways.

I'm currently using the gillette fusion since i got the blades on sale. I can usually stretch them out to about a month and a half or so, but I only shave every 2-3 days. I've been using the Aveeno shaving gel and it's hands down better than the Edge I was using before. It's really smooth even going against the grain.

 

[snickerd3]

wow only every 2-3 days...mr snick would have a near full beard if he didn't shave for 2-3 days. 5 o'clock shadow before lunch for him

 

[MetsFan]

Yeah, three days is pushing it sometimes, but I can easily get by shaving every two days. I tried growing a beard in college, but failed miserably, haha.

CSB, you disappoint me. I even PM'd you on this one.
