Taming of the beard is an ongoing battle. About ten years ago I ditched the blade and invested in a more cost effective method. I bought a Braun 8595. This unit came with a base that charged and cleaned the razor. The cleaning is basically an alcohol rinse while the blade turned on and off. Coming up on a decade of use, my razor was starting to run a little sluggish. This seemed like reason enough to take apart.
It was gross, the amount of hair trapped inside of the body of the razor. The picture only shows 5% of what I dumped and brushed out. The base needs a better seal between the motor compartment and the blades. The hair was acting like sand in the motor. I can see why it was struggling. After cleaning it all out and re assembled, it was really hummin'. Maybe it will last another 10 years now.
