Difficult area on your dome...
« on: July 30, 2012, 03:10:53 PM »
Hello fellow chrome domes:  Hope all is well with U and your families.  What is your most difficult area to shave on your dome?  For me... the area that I have difficulty (more passes) is the top left part of my dome.  I always have to perform more passes than the rest of the areas.

So... how 'bout U?  What is yours?  Back area of dome?  Sides?  Top left?  Top right?  What's your story?

Rear upper right, where the old "cowlick" grew out of, about the size of a quarter.  It takes several passes in all directions of the compass to clean it up.

Shaving around the crown. Well, what's left of it.

For me, it's on the top, near the back. Always have to give that area a few extra passes to get 'er smooth... Also, behind and over the ears: The only area I can't get without a mirror.

Behind and over the ears always is a pain.

Yeah, that too.

Getting better though with tight crescent shaped runs with the HeadBlade razor.

Above the ears takes a few passes. yep.

But the cowlick area and I have a dip in that area too, so it's extra hard to get that really smooth. Always takes multiple passes to smooth out that area.

Top right.....Behind the ears is a close second and the back just below the cranium third.

Top rear for me. I have two small shallow dimples that almost feel like a pair of parenthesis. I usually have to make several passes before they're stubble free.
Hair is over rated.

I have a hair spiral on the top rear of my head and that's what I find most difficult to shave because hair grows in different directions.
To shave that area I go by feel since holding a mirror is only making things harder.

I have the same problem and I can NEVER get the hair. I can ALWAYS feel it. I bought a Double Edge razor hoping that would be the solution but I was so afraid of it that I couldn't even finish my shave.  :'(

Top right in the back for me.  Also behind my left ear since I have some moles there.  I have a lot more trouble with my face than with the dome.  Seems I cut something on my face every day.

This is the spot that I pay the most attention to also.
