> That at least sounds like it's plausibly for safety reasons, don't go splashing water around the thing plugged into a live socket. Do many people even use electric shavers wet? That just seems like a bad idea to me - you want the hairs to be as stiff as possible, and getting them wet does the opposite. I know some of them are advertised that way, so I guess some people do it. But it just seems weird to me. Blade based razors make sense to shave wet with - you're typically using some sort of foam to keep the hairs elevated. But I've never heard of anyone using shaving cream with an electric.
