One of my sons has a model something like yours and it's certainly not the same quality -- his is made in China, whereas neither of mine is.
However, I think that before reaching the conclusion that you need a different model of razor I would give your skin and beard growth a chance to get used to it and really concentrate on getting the technique right. Getting the skin completely dry, without any trace of moisture whatsoever, stretching the skin ahead of the razor and moving it real slow over the skin are all important. Your skin also needs to be totally clean -- no trace of makeup of any sort. Best to wash your skin thoroughly at night and then shave in the morning.
When you say it doesn't remove anything, how long is the growth that's there when you start?
Is it soft or is it stubbly? |
I just tried using it again, skin completely dry and clean (I dont wear makeup) and what is happening is it removes some in some areas, but in other areas it appears to be to short to cut I think. I am a very dark haired woman, so my stubbles are extemely dark too. I just shaved, nice in slow and it kind of looks like I haven't shaved in a few days or something. It's stubbbley when I start because my growth isn't real fast (Im not even taking anything to slow it down anymore) but, the next morning even after a shave with a blade, its pretty noticeable.
I was thinking that maybe using some cream in the day will help soften it up and maybe they will be easier to remove... or that electric shave stuff.
Its so frustrating xD I wish I was having the same results as you!
edit: good for you tres_chick! I wish you lots of luck.
