    Do you use a razor blade or electric shaver?

    I use a hair trimmer and blade 1. I’ve just enough to not bic and I’d rather have a bit of hair there at the sides.

    Beard trimmer with no guard, once a week. If I take it all off with a blade I spend all day fondling the crease at the back of my head, and a day’s stubble plays velcro-havoc with my favoured merino beanie.

    Once a week, maybe longer if feeling lazy, with a Philips thingy with the guard off. It’s cordless with a rotatey head, which is handy.

    Bare clippers and then BIC and shaving gel. Just did it about an hour ago. Only cut myself twice today…

    After a few months using mains-powered hair clippers with no guard as recommended on here to someone else, I moved to using my beard trimmer with him guard to cut at (a stated) 0.4mm length.

    Works for me.

    Winter- head gets a no guard clip once a week, summer- whole head and face gets the same, except eyebrows, they get a no2 guard every month or so.

    I use a hair trimmer, always make sure i buy one that is 0.5mm without any attachments, some are 0.8mm and it all makes a difference

    Does anybody just use a facial electric shaver (Braun, Phillishave etc)?

    I do it the other way round, I use clippers with no attachment on my head and my face. I find hair clippers much better on facial hair than a shaver.

    Moses has got it.

    Those things are the dropper post of baldy headcare. Once you use one, you’ll wonder why on earth you hadn’t got one sooner, and how you definitely wouldn’t fancy going back to the far inferior alternatives.

    I rorm one over my big baldy noggin, with no guard, every few days

    Used to use a mach 3, but they’re so expensive I switched to a Panasonic shaver (normal face type), almost as close if you do it every day.
    Although there’s a lot less to shave off these days compared to twenty odd years ago when I started shaving my head.

    thered – yes.

    Panasonic ER GB40. I do the beard with it too. 3mm all over. beard every week, head every 2 or 3.

    Tried wet shaving, too much work, too often!

    No.1 attachment all over for me. Anything shorter and I look emaciated.

    Daily buzz all over with the electric shaver. If I leave it for a few days, then its Wahl clippers without the guard. Occasional wet shave for special occasions, but that leaves my head too smooth for woolly hats, which seem to need a bit of stubble for grip.
