I have an electric razor from The Beard Club. My previous one was this Phillips, and it is leagues upon leagues better.

Yea but that's a bullshit razor. All electrical razor have built in obsolescence,and will never give you the closeness and longevity of a safety razor. It's just better in every way

Different uses. A bladed razor gives you a closer shave for sure, but I like a trimmed beard.

This Phillips one is bullshit, because it only works well without this guard, and then yes, you may as well use a safety razor.

I'd use a razor either way

I use a muhle (they sell them on the link.) I’d suggest starting with a closed comb head and whatever handle suits you. (They’re interchangeable,)

I use an open comb and it’s much more aggressive, and not for starting out.

I’d recommend staying away from the frequently recommended “entry” razor- the Merkur 34c. The head on the one I tried has a ridiculous amount of play in how it held the blade- it’d clamp down but it’d never consistently seat itself so it was always off center or twisted.

As for blades, I use feather, but you can buy variety packs and find the set that works for you. That tends to be the most variable part.
