Electric Shavers

dartsfan

Just wondering about electric shavers, I've never used one and neither does any of my friends....is it possible to adjust the "depth" of the shave?
I'm not always keen on a totally clean shave, and prefer to leave some stubble.
Is it possible to achieve this?
Thanks.

I'd rather shave my cojones with a straight razor than use an electric razor on my face.

If you want to leave stubble get a beard or hair trimmer not an electric razor.

Check the Facial Hair & Hats forum

if you want to spend 20mins shaving and still feel like there is stubble on your face/neck,,, then an electric shaver is just the ticket.

OP, most if not all on this forum just wet shaves to keep the facial hair under control. They do that for a good reason and it's because a wet shave gives you a better shave then electric.
However you asked about leaving a furzz or stubble rather then using it to get cleanshaven. I'd say that you'd be better off with a beard trimmer rather then an electric razor. The trimmers can be set to leave a range of beard lengths from the 'designer' stubble to a beard of about an inch & a half.
Check the ones available in the Argos catalogue just to get you familiar with trimmers.

Yep, pretty much. I have a Babyliss "iTrim" beard trimmer that I bought when I had a very long beard, it worked for trimming that nicely but also will adjust down as far as "designer stubble" length. Does a better job than the other electric shaver I owned before. I got it in Argos btw.
