Ok so it's time to take the plunge!
I shaved again last night to see what the difference would be after a shower.
Using a fromm hair trimmer I did my whole face, neck and chin. I was going to wait for my wife to get me a set for father's Day, but I can't wait that long.

This time I spent a little more time getting my face ready before shaving and did notice the difference. So now I'm on the hunt for something to hold me over until Father's Day.
