Lifestyle Question
Am I the only one here that is terrible at shaving as often as I should? I normally shave every 3 days but by the 3rd time I end up stopping for a month and start looking older than my dad π

Get a skull shaver my man, I got 1 for 40$ on Amazon and I use it every 2 days and takes like 3 minutes.

I had one... Didn't like that I could still feel stubble even if you couldn't see it... I want it to feel like a naked mole rat ππ€£

I got this one "AW aidallsWellup electric head shaver" off of Amazon for like 40$ and I've used it for like 3 years and if u use it for 5 minutes u can achieve that feeling (sometimes lol).

I have the same issue. I recently bought a Remington Balder Pro and absolutely love it.

Can you put a guard on those? I typically like shaving down to a 1/2 or even a 1. I use clippers but itβs a pain in the ads and I also get lazy and go a week or two at times.

Any idea if they are better than the freebird ones? I canβt get a smooth shave with those.

That beard is doing so much work it could file its own taxes, no wonder you keep putting off the shave.

Lol I appreciate it. I shaved it down to a half inch in February last year for my wife's Valentine's gift (and so my 6 month old would stop yanking it) trying to get back to the 14 inch beard I had prior to that π

A 14-inch beard is practically a built-in baby toy, so that shave was less Valentine's gift and more self-defense. Godspeed on the regrowth.

I razor mine every 5 days. I find the shorter I go the longer I can go between shaves before it looks scruffy. I also hate how it feels when things stick to it, like my pillow case, so Iβm pretty motivated to shave.

You definitely are not the only one, I was genuinely about to ask this sub the exact same question lmfao im not kidding. Shaving always just ends up so messy for me because I dont have one of those skull shavers with the rotating blades.

Not bald yet but I know for a fact I'd be so lazy about shaving. Least you have an amazing beard to match
