I use a Wahl beard trimmer to get down to stubble. I then get some shaving cream and rub it on. I use a double edged safety razor, and shave with the grain starting on the back of my head. Rinse blade after each stroke by shaking it vigorously in the sink which is full of hot water. Repeat until done. Take a shower, and lather bar soap on your hands and head. Use a cheap Gillette 2 razor for a final close shave and pay attention to around your ear.
I used Astra blades with little luck, but I've been using Derby and they cut better for me. Don't reuse the blades on a safety razor.
Hand sanitizer works well as aftershave.
