Nothing gives a clean shave like the 2,800 strokes per minute, Premier 4000s electric sheep shears.

Using Gillete blade shaver with Gillete foam. Cleaner easy to maintain not that I have a lot of beard.

Don't buy one. Take the Free Software option.

By this I assume you mean Gillette's modern cartridge razors such as the Mach 3, Fusion/Pro Glide razors. They are over priced junk. They don't provide a decent shave, can cause irritation and break all the rules of shaving. A decent Double Edged Safety Razor, like your Grandfather used. They give a far better shave, will last a lifetime and cost a fraction of the price to use. A DE razor in conjunction with a Badger brush and some soap or cream is a winner. Those modern canned shaving goos do nothing but dehydrate your skin. A Muhle R89 is a fantastic razor and you can't go wrong with any made by Merkur either. You could also have a look on eBay for a vintage Gillette model. I use a Muhle R89 as my daily razor and this 1953 English made Gillette Superspeed for special occasions.

don't use one.
although if you don't wanna look like Osama or stallman, i'd suggest you some stuff:
1. shave a part of face between lower lip an chin- its useful during meal
2. trimm your moustache (small /nail/ scissors + comb will do it) - again, no food left-overs :)
3. shave you dewlap
4. partly shave you cheeks

thanx that- you will heave a fashionable beard without the look of homeless guy.

Yup, although I use a Dovo straight razor. Never really got on with the DE, and I don't need to swap out blades. A pot of Taylor's soap lasts me near two years, and the razor never runs out; it's amazing how much money you save.

That said, I imagine the OP is talking about beard trimmers, not shaving.

Smoothest shave you'll ever get. Just make sure you have a soundproof room to do it in, screaming isnt becoming from a man. :lolflag:
