Electric Shave of the Day (ESOTD)

Remington PF7855 (head shave)
Osage Rub

Good shave, but not as smooth as the Braun. Still, though, there was no stinging when I applied the Osage Rub. I have to charge the Remington now.
 
Finally got around to using the Phillips 2500 with Speick shaving cream. Got a very close shave. Not sure that I like it any better than a dry shave. As a decades long DE shaver part of the allure of an electric is the ability to just pick it up and shave. For me there is just something odd about wet shaving with an electric. A part of me says if I am going to take the time to lather up I might as well put a fresh blade in my Aristocrat and get the full experience.

Remington PR1855 (head shave)
Osage Rub

I wish my Braun would be sent back, repaired properly this time, of course. The Remington works well and is a solid razor, but it's just a bit rough on my head.
 
Head shave with the Remington Balder Boss Rx7. Face shave with the Philips Norelco s7887/82. Williams Lectric shave, Geo Trumper Limes skinfood

I can understand this logic, from a regular user of DE and electric razors I frequently jump between the two methods. Though I’ve never used an electric razor with lather, I don’t really see the point since electric shaving is meant to be quick and eliminates the need for any kind of preparation
