16.male I shaved yesterday for the 1st time with my dad's dry electric shaver. Before that I used those disposable gilette (sp?) razors, which meant using it wet and a bit of shaving cream. Well while I wasn't sure how to use it exactly, I ended up cutting the bottom of my chin and under my lower lip. Any tips for next time, to prevent this from happening? I'm not shaving that much off, so should I avoid using an electric one for the time being since I'm not doing my entire face? Thanks a lot, and will rate.

i wouldn't avoid electric, they are useful, but it's better if you use them if there's more to shave.
