Time consuming and poor shave.
It takes me now three times longer than with a blade razor to even get rid of all the long hairs. My face has less irritation, but having to go through and individually "fluff up" hairs that are lying down so that I can shave them off is ridiculous and probably offsets entirely the benefit of not shaving off the top layer of skin on my face every morning. Additionally, of course, the final shave isn't nearly as close as with a blade, but I expected that. What I did not expect was the razor's complete inability to shave long hairs without manual assistance from tweezers.<br /><br />I remember having a previous model razor of the same type when I was in high school that worked much better. I expected this one to work even better than that, as it's more modern. No such luck, this new one did a far worse job of shaving effectively than a 7 year old razor.
