Hi there

So I'm 17 in 2 weeks and I've decided that I'm reaching the age where I might want to get a new razor since my old manual one doesn't always cut it.

Now I was thinking of the Gillette Fusion Proglide razor, but I was wondering if anybody knew about them. I don't know if I should go for the manual or vibrating (which seems weird for a semi-manual razor o-o).
But yeah. I just need advice and/or opinions on if its a smart choice or if there are far superior razors out there.

Thanks

Vibrating razors = marketing ploy. They're completely pointless. Plain old Gillette fusion is what I use and I have sensitive skin and it works great. They are certainly on the more expensive side however I've been using them for a year now and even after going through basic and AIT where I had to shave every day for 4 months straight, I've never even had so much as one razor bump.

Also what shaving cream you use is important. I use Gillette sensitive skin shaving gel.

Lol

If your facial hair doesn't grow fast and if your careful, good quality razors are unnecessary.

-I'm also 17 and only shave when I have wrestling meets...I get by with cheap throw aways

Cheap throw aways irritate my skin BAD. I actually use the exact same that Dragoeth mentioned. Works wonderful.

I use the orange Gillettes. I think that's the Fusion. They're expensive but last forever. I shave 2-3 times a week and they last months.

I suggest using throw aways, or ones with replaceable heads. I've never used one of the electric vibrating one, but I heard they get dirty, are hard to clean, and easily leave bumps.

If you're wanting something really long lasting then you should go for a shaving blade. When I started shaving I used my older brothers, and it left me feeling smooth as a baby. Do be advised that you can cut yourself really bad if you're not careful though.
