A question for Men

[Kazbadan]

Ok, my question its related with electric shave machines.

There 2 major kinds of eletrical shave machines and i just would like to know wich one its better for you.

Since i dont speak english i will post the images of these machines:

this one its what i call a 3 blade machine.

The next one its a one head machine (names invented by me just for easy understanding):

1-My question now is: wich are the main differences (i am speaking abbout the differences on shaving), advantages and disadvantages, between both of them?

I never used the "One head", i only use 3 blade but i would like to know more about the one head, since i need a machine that its good for a sensitive skin as mine.

2- other question: do you really think that blades (not electric machines) can make a perfect shave than a electric machine? i am always hearing that blades are better than machine in what respect about perfection. they say that the skin gets smoother, but when i use an electric machine my skin will get smoother than if i use a blade.

3- Last question: mach 3 or wilkinsor 4 blades?

(edit was just to correct some spelling mistakes)

I'm not a guy, but my hubby uses the mach 3.  

I was going to get him an electric razor and he said Noooo, the blade gives a much better shave.  I of course told him it has been years since they first came out with the electric razor and I'm sure they are better, but he won't give up the blade.

HTH,

Well, in the face maybe the blade its better, but in the neck i prefer the electric machine because it is not so agressive to my skin. Besides that the neck will be better shaved.

Well I always found electric shavers to really aggrivate my skin, drying it out and causing discomfort. Shaving with a blade (I usually use mach 3 kind of shavers) gives a much more pleasent shave. Also back-shaving (with a blade) gets a lot closer for me than an electric...

Personally I use Mach 3 blade which gives a very close shave and it doesn't irritate my skin like other shaving products.

I'd reccomend Mach 3 razor blade and a good shaving foam that has a nice scent, (careful some people can get allergic reactions to parfume in shaving creams).

thanks guys

what about my major questions regarding to electrical machines? what is the main advantage of the "one head" (see link in my first post)?

I just wanted to mention that I rather like the Mach 3 too but the new "turbo" really does work better. It's really kind of silly, just a battery and the "vibrate" module used on cell phones but heck it works great   and it was cheaper than the regular Mach 3 'cause of a Costco discount thang.

As for the electrics the shave quality has more to do with the contours of your face, how your beard comes in and how many times you are willling to go over the same area. In general they can both give the same quality shave but if you have a rounded face or an uneven hair distribution the rotary works faster. I also found that the single lasts longer and is easier to clean and sharpen. Anyways, I use the Mach 3 turbo mostly but keep a "single" electric in the car just in case.
