    disposable? DE safety razors? straight razors? electric? which do you prefer for your everyday use? and are there any guys here that use an actual barber from time to time?

    I've always preferred the safety razor from day one since i started shaving. I've had to make do with an occasional disposable here and there but given the chance i won't use it. plastic disposables seem garbage to me. although, when you don't have anything else handy they eventually get the job done.

    anybody here use a straight razor at home? for a while now i've been thinking about trying them out. but i've heard they cost around 100 bucks plus 50 for a strop. it's not really that expensive but is it really worth it? is the quality of the shave really that/any different from what you get with a safety razor?

    Shower, I'm Quite Happy With The Result...[​IMG].

    I Use An Electric At Other Times And I Am Less Than Happy With Them.
