Got tired of waiting
« on: June 19, 2012, 05:35:41 PM »
I guess my stuff will get here. In the meanwhile, I used every cartridge I had plus a Remington razor and sideburn trimmer to do the deed! Meet the sly magoo! It ain't pretty, but it's my new avatar.

Just got my DE, Dr. Harris & Co. w/ Astra Superior Platinum blades. The Col. Conk mug came with some glycerin soap, but I ordered 3 RazoRock Cacao soap as well. The Tweezerman nose hair trimmer was about useless and I haven't gotten my Headblade or my Matte for Men stuff yet.

Shaving a head ain't easy. I took a lot of time yesterday getting sly. This whole grooming bit of mine is a bit ridiculous anyway. I'm OCD and my hair is just a PITA. Now, if I could shave the dog...

Well, I used my new DE last night. On the face, it was great, but I pretty well hacked up my head! Gues I shoulda waited for the Head Blade!

You're still in your first month of shaving your head, Mr. M.  It takes some practice and patience at first. The shave gets faster with time. Hang in there.

Maybe it's stuck in customs.

Perhaps the custom's agent wondered what it is and confiscated it to USE it and he likes it.

Oh, that's right. You ARE here in the states. Perhaps the postman really liked it!

Now I'm stuck. Took a DE to my head and butchered myself. The DE works great on the face, still a couple o' dings due to my crags, but I'm only trying to take care of about a million things and this shaving takes time. I don't think I want to hack my head again. I'm a bleeder (damned old age!).

Hello there

In my opinion, I think you may be taking things a little too fast.  First try a conventional cartridge razor on your dome, then when you have mastered that, try the DE.  You may be put off the DE for life if you jump the gun too fast.
