I am afraid I am sadly conventional and normally use a Gillette Mach 3, and their shaving gel for everyday use. However, if I am getting ready to go to a special event, (later in the same day/evening) and am a bit flush I enjoy going to a proper barber and getting the treatment with hot towels, traditional shaving soap, and then shaved with an open razor. I have also previously tried the traditional double sided safety razor but was never satisfied with the result. I dislike electric shavers, because I don't feel really clean shaven after using one.
