Speaking of beards, i know a few on here use electric shavers. Due to some skin issues I switched to an electric shaver about six months ago, also have a head shaver that I bought cheap off Amazon.
The Shaver is a Norelco 2400 rechargeable that works great. The owner's manual say change the blades once a year, which seems like a long time.
The head shaver is some $39 chinese thing that is decent, but I am thinking up upgrading when the blades need changing.
So my questions.
What kind of face shaver do you use and do you only change blades once a year?
Are the Norelco brand blades better than the other brands?
if you use a head shaver, what brand do you recommend that you like?
I have electric clippers I used to use on my head every 4 weeks or so, but the head shaver is easier to use every two or three days and less messy. Keeps the head a little smoother too.

Remington. For me they work much better than Norelco. I have both.
Remington comes in different grades. They are relatively inexpensive so I usually buy the top of the line

I don't use electric on my face....my head I do. I have a light weight, rechargeable, battery operated Phillips shaver.

Norelco wet dry shaver since I shave in the shower. I think a good quality shave butter makes all the difference in the quality of the shave you get also.

The Remington is great for shaving your taint and other hard to reach areas.

Straight razor or safety razor. Used an electric once. Never again.

Wife and kids got me a norepco wet dry for my anniversary. Used it first time Monday. I had to shave for firehawk/resperator fit test 🤬🤬🤬🤬
It was just how I remember electric razors. They rip hair out as much as they shave! It did work fairly well on my head though. But it was difficult to get the hair on my neck with it in a consistent manor. People that dry shave with or without an electric or not human
