... shave, that is.

Having used an electric razor for fifty years I was forced to have a wet shave last month when a certain airline mislaid my bags - and I just couldn't get the close shave I'm used to.

I wonder what percentage of us still wet shave?

EDIT - Once again, I can't post the poll I'd prepared, despite clicking all the boxes. Mod?.................

Used to use an electric for a while then on Holiday just used a normal razor. There is no going back now. Mach 3 all the way. I heard it is the best a man can get.

Good ol' shaving cream and razor. I use disposable razors (Wilkinson Sword) at 2 day intervals. They last as long (a month each) and are way cheaper than buying blades.

Could never get used to electric/dry shaving.
