Honestly, perhaps you should leave it to Paul. Talk it over with Paul and see how he feels about it all.

Why not an electric razor?

That's true. Especially if he doesn't want a beard.
I assumed that a beard was in order.

I've always shaved against the grain, I find that I get a closer shave that way. You just need to take your time and use a good shaving gel.
I've never used an electric worth a damn.
Straight razors are nice, but impractical for daily shaving (like when you wake up late and have 10 minutes to s, s, and s).

Argh. Shaving has always been a bitch for me. I have really tough, thick facial hair (runs in the family) and really sensitive skin (also runs in the family). Shaving with or against the grain makes little difference, since I cut myself without removing the hair whichever way I do it. I once even cut myself to ribbons with an electric. I've discovered that the best I can hope for is stubble reduction (rather than a clean shave) and for this purpose an electric is best, because I'm less likely to draw blood.Balon wrote:The one really important thing to remember is to shave with the grain of your beard. After that, don't press to hard, it might take a couple of passes, but that's how it works. Otherwise your asking to get cut.
Aftershave and shacing cream is optional depending on the person. I've never used either, and never had any problems, but my brother uses shaving cream. Without it, he bleeds like a stuck pig.
That help?

Heh! My last boyfriend was waaaay into straight razors. Nearly obsessed, was he. Belonged to a straight razor/shaving forum, and dreamed of going to the UK to go to Geo. Trumper's shaving school. True story. He was indeed obsessed with shaving and hygiene.Balon wrote:Cameraman Jenn wrote:A STRAIGHT Razor! Balon! Don't give poor Pam a heart attack!

As for me, I do shave EVERY DAY without exception. I like to be very smooth. The extra time in the shower is worth it to me.
I was going to say something else, but then thought about it and realized this was a family forum.

...One of us...
...me.
I use a plain old hand held razor; but I only shave twice a week.
I use old fashioned Shaving cream in a cup with a brush...and I've never used after-shave (I don't like smelling) Once in a while, if I need it I'll use rubbing alcohol in it's stead.

I hate it when I'm unable to shave for 3 or 4 days (usually cos I can't be bothered to go and buy a new razor) and my facial hair gets to that really horrible, awkward length. It looks like shit AND really hurts to shave off.

Are you legal, Balon? 'Cause I'm not saying anything incriminating if you're below age. Posted: Tue May 01, 2007 11:17 pm

You're still close enough to being illegal that it would seem just wrong to tell you. Sorry.Balon wrote:18 as of last June 30!Wyldewode wrote:Balon wrote:By "me" he meant "me."
