I have the same problem Braders, not the sawdust, hair. I don't need hair, so 1980s. I'm one of those good looking bald guys

This thread has gone from.... Wet, leccy, pension, sawdust. beards, bald heads, whatever next god not bait boats.

There's wet shave and then there's wet shave, if your using one of those overpriced plastic things and gunge from a can then that could well be the issue. I use a 55 year old Gillette with a single sided blade, decent shaving foam lathered with a brush and an after shave cream, gives a good close shave without any soreness.

The only electric I have found that gets anywhere near a wet shave is the Wahl balding clippers, but they are not cordless. Tried a couple of cordless over the years and they were pretty rubbish.

I do full head shaves with mine and they get it 95% towards wet shave standard, but nothing ever beats a wet shave...

I also love the wet shaving.
