Default Shaving


What is your method? Safety razor with replaceable blades? Disposables? Straight razor? How did they shave in the old days? I always wondered. Any tips? Does anyone here shave their head? Give us your bes,t MuBa's!

Gave up shaving 20 years ago. Now just use a trimmer.

Can't forget the crotch, OP. I find that the base of the dick is the most difficult area to clean up.

For me, it's any place that you have to over-reach and use the razor, trying to get those tricky spots. Shaving places you can't see, hoping you don't nic your gimblees.

I also use a trimmer to shave my face and head. Much easier to use and on my skin.

Just takes practice and cautious confidence.

If you're too bitchy for the itchy then just condition that **** often and you'll be fine after a few months. If you take poor care of your beard then it can be downright painful, especially if you live in a dry and/or windy climate. Had to shave one once because it got dried out in some especially brutal Santa Ana winds before I started making the connection between facial hair and shampoo/conditioner. It felt like someone was pulling on my beard when a gust wold come by, it was awful.

When I start shaving my head you bet I'm gonna upgrade to a trimmer. For now my shaving is too infrequent and small scale for the money.
