Hello everyone, first of all I apologize for my english, I'm italian.
Just for share my surprise about the subject.
I always find foil shaver more comfortable than rotary... so I used Braun from many years, other times Mach 3... Rotary were less comfortable and let the skin itchy and red, especially on neck.
Well, not anymore.
Surprisingly with my new Philips/Norelco Series 7000 (the new one) I felt itchy just the first time, I insisted day after day but already third time the result were superb. No itchy, no red, result superior to Braun mostly on neck. Philips shaved much better on the neck compared tu Braun and skin remains more smooth.
I have even Philips Series 5000 (the new one) and even godd not good and comfortable like 7000 (I know, the heads are compatible).
So, all this to say that now I switch to the rotary even I never would have thought.
My skin change? The rotary model change? No matter: I'm happy.
Note: the entry level of Philips its terrible for my skin though. Big red arc signs on my neck. Not anymore. So it dipende a lot by the model.
ps: I wet shave with the electric. Between 5 and 7 minutes its done.
