Customer Rating:      Summary: Happy Convert Comment: I hate shaving. I loathe it. It may be the worst part of being an adult male (which is, you know, not such a bad thing but still...) and I am fortunate that I really only have to shave a couple of times a week for work and such.
After reading the reviews here about a year ago, I went for it and bought the CoolSkin.
I decided that I would follow the instructions to the letter for the first couple of weeks. I shaved every day (horrible!!!) and then after about 10 days, something 'clicked' and it became an actual pleasure to shave.
It takes longer than using a conventional razor, but when you're finished, your face is smooth from the moisturizer and you have no more whiskers. Yay!
If you "let yourself go" for a bit and have longer whiskers, don't worry, it will still work. Don't hold the razor at the ends of the whiskers or it will simply PULL THE BEARD OUT OF YOUR FACE and no one except for a small yet vocal type of person wants that sort of pain in their life. Instead, begin shaving at the edge of the "beardline" and use slow, deliberate circles and you will achieve a nice, smooth, comfy shave.
Make sure you rinse the blades
Do it. You know you want it. Do it...
Customer Rating:      Summary: It's a Winner Comment: I purchased this as a Christmas gift for my soon-to-be son-in-law, who shaves his head. He wanted a razor he could use in the shower. I can't personally say this is a great product but he says so, so I'll take his word for it. His head and face look as smooth as a baby's bottom, and he especially loves the shower feature.

Customer Rating:      Summary: Best for the money! Comment: This line of Norelco is the best you can buy for the money. If you follow the directions about getting used to using it, you'll never go back to a blade.
Customer Rating:      Summary: not as good as i expected... Comment: it's a very good shaver, but i expected a closer shave... it's really hard to shave under the jaw and it's really anoying to have to pump the gel... but on the bright side, it's really great for people with sensitive skin because there's hardly any irritation, also the battery lasts for over two weeks (and i have to say i use it every day and sometimes twice a day...). all in all i do recommend it and i think it was a good purchase..
Customer Rating:      Summary: Norelco 6701x Comment: My only other experience with electric razors has been with the Braun 1775 and I believe this is definitely a better shave.
PROS: Great close shave, love the norelco shaving gel/lotion, it's quieter than my Braun 1775, and the 3 pivoting heads are perfect for where your neck/chin curves.
CONS: Shaving in the shower doesnt give you as close of a shave, it supposedly takes 8 hours to charge and charge only lasts 40min, and you can't shave while it's plugged into the wall.
Even with the cons, it's a great razor, especially for the price. Buy it!
