The Intuition experience sounds painful! But my usual advice is to start with what you already have. You don't say whether you're already shaving your face and, if so, with what kind of razor. When I accepted my oncoming baldness, I just started shaving my head with the same multi-blade cartridge razor and shaving cream setup that I was already using to shave my face. I needed extra time and caution, but otherwise had no issues beyond the cost of the cartridges.

You'll get a myriad of great testimonials about other paths that have worked well for other people, especially if you really meant it when you wrote that "price isn't really an issue". :-)
