Hello,
as you can see I am new here and not experienced with shaving tools at all.
I would like advice on what do I need to get for a "scruffy" type beard. Something like this:
Basically a typical 2-3 day beard.
So far I used:
- philips oneblade with 1mm guard. Result is fine, problem is that the blades wear out quickly. They advertise 6 months, but in my case they wore out after just 5-6 uses. And replacement blades are very expensive.
- wahl detailer. It seems to cut fine, but the guards scratch like hell. I saw the most people use it without the guards, but I don't think I could cut evenly at 1mm without a guard. Are there some guards that don't scratch? And I don't know how long the blade lasts, hopefully more than a year?
Should I try with a clipper too? I noticed those come with more guard options
