Old School double edge safety razor is the way to go. Get some quality shaving soap and a quality brush. Don't buy the aerosol foam or gel, its way inferior to most traditional soap/cream on the market.
You're going to cut yourself learning and it'll take awhile to get your technique right. Once you've mastered it, you won't buy another disposable again.
The upfront cost will be more expensive, if you buy a decent safety razor will last you a lifetime, you'll get a lot of years out of good brush as well. Blades are cheap the most you'll pay is about .50 for a blade but they can be as low as .07 - get a sample pack to find the right blade as each different brand has its own sharpness, aggressiveness and feel to it.
Or for extra man points jump straight into shaving with a straight razor, mind after a couple of weeks you'll have more scar tissue than a Diaz eyebrow.
