Wet Shaving

[bigred]

but how can you see what you're doing?

Pretty much how I feel even though I don't leave anything

Ya, I just shave it all too, but I need to see. I guess I'll have to go pick up a shower mirror.

And ya, electric shavers... even good ones seem to leave a permo 5'oclock. If I'm gonna shave I like to be able to look like I just shaved, not like I shaved a day ago.

Note that I have sensitive skin and have used electric for a while - you need to give it 30-45 days. I'm not sure if there's a skin acclimation process or what but the shave does get noticeably closer over that period of time.

I've tried going back to a normal blade and actually manage to get a closer shave now with the electric? :\

I must have just been given really crappy electric shavers as gifts, cuz these things left me PATCHY... it wasn't just not a close shave, it would be good in one spot and just not really get another spot unless I made 20 passes.. Idk, my mach3 isn't bad really, so I'm fine with it. However I may grab a mirror for the shower and a DE razor/shaving brush/good cream when I feel like blowing $100.

Oh and I did try shaving in the shower today without a mirror... the parts that I managed to shave did feel really close, but with a mirror I had all sorts of patches.. also I spent so much longer in the shower that I ran out of hot water!

i'll second electric shavers. way less irritation for me, 10x faster, not as close a razor shave but its only about 1 days difference in growth.
