dry shaving is evil.... you obviously don't have to shave enough facial hair to realize this

i generally don't bother shaving my goatee due to the fact it's a pain in the ass to shave, otherwise i've never had much problems with razor burn. that and i simply don't like shaving cream.

I don't like shaving at all since I always seem to cut something and it'll start bleeding non-stop :/

I've actually not heard of the stuff...

What I used to use was GEL(TM), but even the extra sensitive skin stuff bugged. Actual shaving *cream* I'm allergic to. Even the aloe stuff.

Electric razors irritate my skin, hence I don't use them. I use the Mach 3 disposable instead.

Well you don't shave with "magic" you apply it then wipe it off and the hair wipes off with it. It is designed for primarily African American men. They tend to have very sensitive skin and lots of problems with in grown hairs. It works quite well, most large markets will carry it.
For I dipt into the future, far as human eye could see,
Saw the Vision of the world, and all the wonder that would be;
Saw the heavens fill with commerce, argosies of magic sails,
Pilots of the purple twilight dropping down with costly bales;
Heard the heavens fill with shouting, and there rain'd a ghastly dew
From the nations' airy navies grappling in the central blue;

Verilon, have you tried using "Softsoap" brand soap (the kind used in a despenser) to lather with? I used that for a long ass time and it works great.

electic shaver -- I get bumps with razors.

I use a Braun, because it shaves me the closest.

Dorsk, do us a favor and remove all the quotes except for the one you're specifically replying to in the future, k?

Mach 3! i got one for free in the mail, blade packs are like 10 bucks but the blades last a long time, like 2 months and sometimes i have to shave 2x a day. But then i got that tough skin that wont bruise or get rashes or cuts easy. Dull blades dont bother me much cept for when it takes too long to shave then i dont shave for 2 weeks, until my wife bitches at me and gets me some new blades.. i'm a lazy fuck sometimes i swear..

Ah, the glories have having pitiful amounts of facial hair. I only shave every week or week-and-a-half. But I use a Mach 3. Electrics do a shitty job on even my facial hair.
