What is an electric shaver and how does it compare to a razor?

An electric shaver is a little machine that either operates by battery or by being plugged to an electric outlet, that will rotate with little blades. In today's razors, they don't rotate; they just simulate the effect of a razor to shave you. They will never give you a really close shave. That's one of the biggest complaints I have heard from men about electric shavers. However, it's very convenient. They can do it while they are driving, and they can do it three times a day going from one appointment to the next. The reason they have to do it three times a day is because it's never close. The razor with a blade still dominates on the market and has the biggest share of the market, because that is the most effective way to get a close shave.
