Epic shaving failure

[svenmate]

Hairyness was too overwhelming for Nigel my electric shaver so i found whats called a "razor". Had new blades. Looked easy and so began painting my face.

only problem is you cant see sh** with cream everywhere so i just started yanking at beard and sideburns.

yeah, felt it a few minutes after. A very sharp, stinging sensation.

not bad

same shit happened to me the other day

was all used to shitty disposable crap then the missus bought me a shick quattro, first time i used it had so many little cuts lol
stang like fuck

good shave tho lol

nice one i wish i had enough hair on my face to shave it.

i use a quatro. they are DEATH when you use a new blade. i find after about 2 weeks of using a blade it actually cuts better.

the reason for this is because they use so many blades they dont machine them as well as they should leaving slight spikes on the edge. they are what cut you. after a few weeks these wear down and then you get a good shave.

ive been meaning to go a different brand because of this but i figure they all probably have the same way of thinking

i got a braun shaver for xmas works great
before that i had a gillette mach 3 never cut me once

lol, i think it just takes getting used to. the gentleness and precision.

you cant just rub the shaver all over your face like the electric ones.

getting better tho

moving it sideways is what cuts you.
