Any Wet Shavers?

[srh88]

I only wet shave my newborn. She's 10 weeks old, old enough to start. It's tough getting around the fat rolls on her arms and legs, and I kinda feel like her labia is too soft for it, but a dad needs to be there for his daughter so if it has to be done it has to be done.

I haven't shaved my face in over two years. I do shave me head tho and i just use the cheap ass disposables since i only do it so often. Would love a nice straight razor shave someday tho. Should start looking for a barber shop.

no longer stand the tugging on my face

I'll never go back cartridge type blades.
I just won a vintage straight razor in a raffle, first save should be interesting. lol

Sharpen and strop the blade first

Any one else that can't, or won't, put a blade to their face? I haven't shaved clean in over 5 years. My beard is so tough and curly I get bad ingrown hairs every time I take it all the way down. The double edged safety blades were the best for me, still had to change the blade every time I shaved. I just buzz it with clippers now.

Do you get as turned on as me when she inserts the iv for saline or draws blood?

Man I was raging hard last time.

I stepped on a nail when I was younger. 8th grade. The nail went through the joint of my big toe. Got blood poisoning(standard) but I also got pseudomonas in there too.
6 weeks of IV, 2 surgeries later, I finally was released out the hospital.

Fuck needles and especially fuck IV catheters

dont sign up for those dollar shave club, unless you're a daily shaver. think its about time to cancel, i have 6 unopened packages.

cleanest shave i get is with just water.

although i havent shaved since the cubs made it to the playoffs. with exception of neck and cheek.

I shave in the shower. Never closer and no burn.

That is how I do it also! If I let my whiskers soak a minute, the shaver glides through. I've been getting MONTHS of play out of a single Bic disposable.

I also have two straight razors - an '80s Puma 4/8 and an Iwasaki forged from laminated steel. Now that I also have a 12000 grit waterstone and the means for keeping it flat, the edges are finally good.
There's also the 1930s Dovo, but I gifted that to the boy. He likes to shave with it and knows it is looking for ways to rust.

We used the cheap Bic disposables, single use only one can do an entire body.

I tried your dry no lift technique. Scary effective.

This is me. I get pseudofolliculitis barbae whenever I shave too close, so now I just trim near with the clippers. Win/win for me, it's easier with clippers, and I have a medical reason to have stubble.

Who wets shaves?

For those that don't know what "wet shaving" is: Wet shaving is a traditional form of shaving with soap and brush and a double edge or straight razors, old school.

I started a year ago and will never go back to 3 and 4 blade gimmicks.

you just started shaving a year ago? you must be at least 18 to post here

I went from "Super Blues" to trac blades and never looked back
i only shave every 3-4 days now, use a beard oil from WalMart and Nivea shave gel.

 

[Sir Napsalot]

I use the el-cheapo Personna disposable twin-blades and get 2-3 months out of 'em

I also shave against the grain and stretch my skin so the whiskers stand out straighter, that way the razor cuts closer
