How do you shave

Post by **DiscoDave** » Thu Apr 21, 2005 7:36 pm

Your face that is....

I've recently been using disposables but getting far too lazy and annoyed. Just wondering if everyone still thinks a wet shave is far better than using an electric shaver etc.

I just take a razor and shave off all the hair I don't want.

edit: I've used electric, I prefer a wet shave.

Mach 3 here as well. I like the 'Turbo' Heads.

!
I'll wash my face really well, not dry it, let it set for a bit, lather up, let it set for a bit (while I brush my teeth /wank, or something)

I always start by shaveing with the grain :icon14:

Most of the time that's where I stop. But if i need to be extra smooth, I'll lather up a second time.
Let it set for a bit, and then shave against the grain. ...But only after shaving with the grain first.

I don't see the turbo anywhere.

Did they put the compressor somewhere around the blades or is it in the handle?
Oh..and how many PSI is the boost on that thing cause shaving really fast is such a smart thing to do.

you'd never have to shave twice using my method. btw, no one dries their face before shaving. that's the whole idea behind getting your face steamed in the shower which opens your pores and makes for a smoother, more controlled shave. it is always the last thing i do before getting out of the shower - thus ensuring a close shave everytime.

Oh...and I use the normally aspirated Mach 3 with gel and a hooker sucking my cock.

hardcore. i make totally sure i don't miss anything. don't care for "cleanup" when i'm out of the shower. plus i'm sporting a goat would be impossible for me to keep perfect without a mirror.

Meh, its down to an art form now. I used to have to do cleanup here and there but that was a long time ago. Of course if I was sporting any facial hair my current method wouldn't work so well.

what's the thing making shaving mirrors superior to generic mirrors for the act of shaving one's face? what are shaving mirrors anyway?

you use them in a shower. shaving mirrors are the same as fogless mirrors.

like that, unless i'm travelling - then use that king shaves oil stuff instead of lather. have tried mach 3 and all that business, but if you wave a regular safety razor at your beard it pretty much jumps off with fright.

Sounds like im going down bottos tomorrow and getting a Mach 3 Turbo.

I remember before when i saw the gillette M3 on for sale, looked quite good but it costs about £14 for 4 heads or something..
