I have to say that I'm disappointed with the Braun 7505 Flex Syncro shaver I got to replace my Norelco 5814XL. I figure life's too short not to try new shavers so when the time comes to replaces shaving heads, I go for a whole new shaver. Each replacement has pretty much been an improvement except for the latest Braun. My biggest gripes with the Braun are that it takes forever to shave new growth stubble (quick on 2 day old stubble), it takes forever to shave my neck and under my chin where the beard grows in every direction, and it has a terrible collection system - there are more shavings on the bathroom counter than captured in the shave head.

I got a cheap-o Panasonic wet-dry shaver to replace the early retired Braun. My first foray into a Japanese brand shaver. I'll report on it shortly.

Aren't there millions of men tired of shaving their faces and who never intend to let facial hair grow? Isn't there un-Minoxidil lotion that replaces shaving? I tried a women's dipilatory(sp?) and it left the test patch on my face swolen and sensitive. Maybe that's why women are the way they are
