My father doesn't clean his electric shaver, and it's quite dirty! I would clean it, but it grosses me out. Any ideas on keeping it clean?

Asked by robert888  |  Feb 20, 2010

I'm a guy and one of the guy things I do is clean my electric shaver every now and then. My dad doesn't do this chore anymore so his shaver gets quite nasty. I know I have to do it, but it grosses me out. It builds up with old skin, oils, hair. I have an assistant that helps out, but it's not a task she's taken on. How do others handle keeping the shaver clean? Alternate methods for keeping him shaved and clean?

His whole life he has used electric shavers, so he's used to that. Actually I've somewhat resorted to cheap electric shavers that I throw out after a while. Mostly I just wonder what other people do in regards to shaving.
