oh so you never go clean shaven? yeah i guess most places allow facial hair as long as it's all even and groomed...No, every multiblade razor shaves too clean, where the hair follicle ends up below the surface of my skin. Im Black and have curly hair, so it ends up growing back into my skin. The last foil shaver I had was an Andis that also cut too close. And single blade razors require a lot of trial and error to find how many passes are good enough. As far as work, the only time its a concern is on my reserve weekend. But even the military doesnt require baby bottom smooth unless youre in basic training, a school, or an inspection. No one is going to come rub their hands across your face unless they want to be put on the ground forcefully lol. At my civilian job, well I just wouldnt work for an employer that regulated my facial hair. I retire from the military in 3 years and plan to grow my beard and have a medium fade tapered into locs. --- If you're not getting promoted, it's not because you're not good at your job.

I use a normal razor and shaving cream on my head, since I want that to actually be smooth. I just use and electric trimmer on my beard to keep it orderly.

Dental clippers then I use a 3 headed electric razor for the stubble. If I do it right it get like 99% of everything. Straight razors always nick me at least once.

I used to use a blade, but I switched to a Norelco (3 circles) decades ago. No, it's not as close as a blade, but I have very fair skin and very dark hair, so I have permanent five o'clock shadow no matter what. But the electric shaver is easier to clean, easier for travel, less messy, and I'd rather buy a replacement every few years (great use of CVS 40% off coupons) than constantly get blades and shaving gel.

Manual, but I should try electric. My skin, especially the neck area gets really irritated regardless of the razor I use if I shave before fourth day. I can either do it every day or every fourth. Second and third day the beard is too short and sharp, it's torture. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I feel like Black people mostly use electric shavers. Liners in particular. Most people I know do. Anyone Black mind confirming their experience? I'm curious about this now.

What method do you use for shaving, then? Gillette Mach 3 every third day works for me. Still looks clean shaven, even if there's a bit of stubble. More than that leads to ingrown hairs for me. Everyone's different of course. I know (black) guys that can do every other day. Another thing to be very conscious of with curly hair is the direction of growth. Cheeks, chin and neck can all grow in different directions at the same time. Shaving sideways like the guys in the TV commercials can be a big no-no. --- Putin delenda est ... Copied to Clipboard!

I prefer manual whenever I can, and a badger brush whenever I have the time. I still need to teach myself how to use a double-edge, but that may not be such a great idea with my vision (and shaving with my glasses on is an unexpected hassle).
