I run atx + dorco pace 4 carts. My hair is full, thick, and very tough... I can grow an Afro that puts quest love to shame. Needless to say I am bald by choice. I shave usually everyday, occasionally skip a day if I'm lazy, I get typically 2 great shaves and 1 ok shave. I can squeeze a 4th shave out if I use oil or something but between the poor shave, my skin reaction to oils, and how cheap I get the dorco carts I dont even bother with trying a 4th most of the time. It is nice to know that I can if needed say during light travel for example.
I used to use a remington rotary face shaver on my head. I got it for around $30 back in like 2005-6, never changed the blade, and it still runs just as good. It's not as close as a blade but 0 irritation ever, much quicker, less water waste, and no money spent on cartridges and creams. I just prefer chasing that smooth dome dragon so much that I'm willing to forgo all the positives of electric for that shiny, slick skull
