Im not sure if this is the right place to post and if not can you point me in the right direction please Smile
My son is 18 and has autism, i have to look after all his personal care and it is now time to buy his first shaver, i am a single parent and have no one to ask for advice, i have been using an ordinary razor (like the ones i use to shave my legs ) but its not practical and want to buy an electric one but havnt got a clue, i dont want to spend a fortune but want a good one that doesnt pull at the hair, any advice appreciated thanks.

For shaving another person I would definitely go for a Philishave. The shaving technique isn't as critical as with a foil shaver (like Braun) - you just move it in small circles - and results are good.
