I'm not trans, but looking to save y'all some money. Stop buying those expensive cartridge razors and invest in a nice safety razor. The razors are dirt cheap and the cut is damn close to a cartridge cut. I'll never go back to Gillette again!

If your hair growth pattern allows for it. I'm not trans either, but my facial hair grows almost parallel to my skin, and after 5 years of trying a dozen different razors, two dozen different blades, and watching all the videos and trying different angles, I can't get a close shave with one.

The closest I've gotten was the Leaf razor which is similar to a cartridge razor but with half DE blades. Even with that I could only get a close shave every other day.

The only thing I've found that works is an electric foil shaver (Panasonic Arc to be specific).

Ooh I think that's the same reason my hair refuses to shave with anything, I should try one of the foil ones

I use the Arc 5, but I recommend going with the 3 to start. The cartridge on the 5 is just really fucking big.
