Remington DA-307 Microscreen 100 Men's Rechargeable Foil Shaver

I've been shaving for almost 60 years and have learned a few things.

I have tried blades, but I prefer electrics, and I have owned at least one model of most brands. In general I don't think tilting heads and other such "features" add much to a shaver.

My beard is about average in density. It's sligtly curly, so I have some problem with in-grown hairs and hairs difficult for a shaver to pick up.

I use this shaving technique: wash my face, dry it, and apply a light coating of baby powder. The washing removes the very fine grit that sticks to your face, and washing before shaving will extend the life of the cutters significantly, because they don't get worn by the grit. The powder helps the shaver glide smoothly over your face and produces a more comfortable shave.

The shaver doesn't cut short curly hair very well, so this is when the trimmer has to be used besides shaping mustaches, sideburns, and thick beards.

This is my second Remington Microscreen DA 307 Shaver. I still have the first one that I bought 10 years ago and it still gives a great close shave. I now keep it in my flight suitcase for business trips . The new DA 307 is now my everyday home use shaver. I was happy to see that Remington was still manufacturing the DA 307. With a new screen and blade every six months it works just like new. Here's the best part,it's a great shaver and it's very affordable. I am a satisfied Remington DA 307 microscreen shaver user.
