I want to take a vibrating razor to my neck.
NOT!


Why does anyone need a vibrating razor? Is shaving so difficult? I use a cheap Bic razor and never had a problem. It's just another useless gadget created for a problem that doesn't exist.

1. I've heard nothing but great things about it
:shrug:

And if all you've ever used is Bic razors, well, you're not one to judge ;-)

10. I didn't say that i've only ever used a Bic.
I've used many razors. I own a $150 Braun razor. It's good for a "once over", but it doesn't cut as close as a cheap Bic.

2. I like my razor to be smarter than me.

3. Maybe it's not for the face and neck? Kills two birds with one stone.

5. I have one, and they ROCK!

Unbelieveably close shave. So close it literally feels like you just shaved 2 days later, no kidding. My fiance loves that I have it.

On edit: I never use shaving cream with it either. I don't need it.

9. How old are you? I'm 18 and I could never picture that just shaved feel...
12 hours after shaving let alone 2 days after.

I have never had anything that shaved as close as the Mach3 battery operated, and that includes professionally.

14. Alright, I need some shaving advice from you...
Describe how you shave. With or against he grain, or both?

17. Always with the grain-it hurts otherwise
and I have always had substantial stubbel on my neck with other razors. There's still a little with this one, but nowhere near as much. On the cheeks it's literally impossible to feel stubble after I finish with this razor.
I get at least a week out of the blades, without shaiving cream. With cream I'm sure it would be longer. Never cut myself either.

18. Here's the thing, I CAN shave against and I don't get irritation...
But my face is never still perfectly smooth by night-time if I shave in the morning.

19. OK
Mine didn't used to be with a bic or electric razor either. With the Mach 3 it feels like I just shaved with an electric razor the next day. Seriously, it does-my finace was quite taken with the results.

7. I have problems getting a close shave..
...If I've shaved the day before...like when my facial hair is very short.

I wonder if this thing works...

Probably just a novelty.

8. I bought one because I can't get a close shave...
I don't even have irritation problems when I shave against the grain, but I still can't get a REALLY good close shave. That thing has helped me shave a little bit closer, but not much. I'll admit that it is smoother and easier to shave with than a reg mach 3, though.
