In search of the smoothest shave
« on: October 30, 2012, 12:08:04 PM »
I am dedicated to daily shaving with HB Sport and achieve good results as a BBC guy. Lately I find I am wanting to be sure of the smoothest shave so I use HB in shower and then run over again with Fusion when I do my face at sink. Am I the only one who is this obsessed ? Love to hear from others.

I too am obcessed with getting the perfect shave, however in three years I've yet to accomplish it.

I cannot get my crown shaved smooth enough to suit me, nor has any barber I've gone to.

I'm pretty obcessed.  I get a pretty smooth shave it just doesn't last long enough for me.

I too OCD on getting a smooth shave, my hair (what's left of it) grows fast. If I don't get a smooth shave it just doesn't last. I suppose I could carry around a HB and touch up every 20 minutes but that seems excessive.  :*))

Good post.  It seems like there are alot of the SLY world that can relate to this topic.  If there is a smoothest shave I would love to hear about it.  I believe when I first became SLY I was more of shaving and rubbing my ole scull cap.

Some would say I'm OCD about shaving my head.
