I use two blade old dollar shave club razors ( I bought enough when they really were dollar shave club to last a lifetime ) in the shower. I keep seeing these newfangled shit for sale now and wonder if any of them really work.

I used to shave my head for years and the best option is what you described - decent disposable razor, shave as you shower.

Sometimes I would go to a barber and he would use 'Wahl Super Close Shaver' machine, it was pretty good, but I preferred razor.

Ok, then I have nothing to add except please remain in view of the birds at all times.

I have a good clipper. I cut it as short as possible. I don't like the shaved feeling. The stubble is like Velcro. It keeps a knit cap or hoodie anchored where I want it.

I usually buzz mine with a trimmer at its lowest setting. It leaves just more than stubble-length hair. When I shave it bald I use a cheap disposable razor, but I use moisturizer instead of shaving cream. You get a smoother shave and it's less messy.

for some reason I find shaving gel for women work better, go figure.

You want as little lather as you can get. What you're looking for is something to help the razor glide along the skin.

$14.88 at Walmart 10 years ago. I buzz this shit off every nine months. Sooner if I can see my own hair growing into eyebrow territory.

I do, I use a skull shaver. Every once in a while I'll also shave with my razor

With clippers every few weeks. Beard at the same time

Skull shaver (or equivalent). It’s the least time consuming and no chance of nicks…

Hubby has been shaving his head every other day for years now. After many burned up cheap clippers he has settled on a professional oster "classic 76". It has a durable cord, a nice hanging loop, and has lasted longer than any new fancy product has. It's also possible to get replacement blades.

The only downside I can think of is that it's heavy and gets warm.

IMO the newfangled shit is just that, shit. It's a miracle product for two months, until it becomes garbage.

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.
