Hello all

Can anyone recommend a dry shaver that gets very close? So probably foil shaver

I havent wet shaved in probably 15 years as its hassle.

Budget maybe 30 40? No idea here

Thanks

I used the " rotary " ones with 3 round heads as they were better at getting longer hairs and then followed with a foil shaver. In the end I gave up. Wet shaving is very fast.

It always leaves me with spots and a rash. Underneath all grows swirly so it really irritates.

I do miss the ultra smooth though

I find the Braun Series 3 shaves close enough. Can be used wet too, but I've never bothered.

wet shave is the answer. I've never got on with electric. 56 shave twice a week, look rough(er) the other 5 days. Wet shave feels so clean especially after a good growth of stubble.

It's a hassle yes.

I started wet shaving during lockdown and haven't gone back to a shaver (I'd always used Braun ones which were fine but never gave a completely smooth result).

It's just as quick as a dry shave and result is so much better.

Give Harry's a go. I started with their 'Original' and now use the Plus which is excellent.

Use a good quality shaving cream and a badger brush.
