    Oh right, an electric razor. Why not just use one of those then instead of blades?

    Seems like the only option if your face can't hack blades!

    Do you mean Mach3s? If so, you might consider traditional shaving and proper beard prep to reduce irritation. Many people on this forum have switched to reduce irritation, it works.

    I got a babyliss istubble...

    Read the instructions etc, bit the settings won't change ? as in the up and down buttons ? it just stays at 0.4mm ?

    Do I have to charge it as advised for 16 hours before the digital settings and up / down buttons work ?

    How is this different from a hair trimmer without a guard on?
    (My tool of choice for the weekly-ish almost-shave)

    About 30-40 quid different.

    OP, any hair trimmer with no guard on it works perfectly.
