The Day-Old Shave

[JohnMont]

Immediately after my first shave my head was of course smooth as silk.  As the day wore on, though, it was beginning to feel more like sandpaper.  Next morning, this roughness was even more pronounced--my hand drags across my dome when i rub it.  And , I noticed when changing my t-shirt the cloth stuck to my head; wouldn't just slide right off.  i was thinking that shaving every other day would be the way to go, but now; I can see why so many guys shave every day !

That would be the velcro effect John. Yes, that is why most of us shave everyday.

[BALDANDRE]

Yes John...so I guess it's safe to say today you are "officially sly"...

There is nothing like the feeling of a new fresh shave on the head...it's got to be everyday for me!

Sounds like you're diggin' it....very nice!

[Paul]

Oh, oh John, sounds like you have already developed that sly addiction we warned you about....I see nothing but a sly future for you now

[Sooner Steve]

Hey John, I was exactly like you.  When I became sly my plan was to shave every 2 to 3 days depending upon my schedule.  I think that lasted about 1 week.  I liked the smooth feel so much better that I have developed into a "shave a day" kind of guy.  Enjoy.

Definitely shave everyday.  Like i said before I was even shaving in the rest stop bathrooms on the way home from florida. YOu dont think it will be a big deal to let it go a day or so...but arggggggggg i hate the velcro effect.  I bet i could clean the rims on my truck with my head it  get so prickly.  LOL...so yes definitely shave everyday here soemtimes TWICE.  Just depends on what Im doing after work.  Like tonight...Im going to a ball game..gotta look good so the razor will coem back out at 5pm

I can't shave more than once a day.  There isn't enough stubble for the razor to grab onto if I try. Even if I'm getting a little sandpapery, I can't get it any smoother if it's been less than 24 hours.  It also seems to screw up the next morning's shave, which won't be as smooth if I try to do the twice a day thing.

I guess my hair just doesn't grow as quickly as some people's.  I shaved around 6 am this morning and it is now almost 5 pm and I am still pretty smooth, with just a hint of roughness in one or two of my "problem areas."

[Timmay]

OK I DONT LIKE YOU!  I can shave at 7 am and by noon or so well at leas 2 pm Im ready for another shave.  It still looks smooth..but the hand says NO!....Wanna switch scalps?

[Razor X]

Wanna switch scalps?

Ummm ....... no. 

If it's any consolation, the stubble should start emerging any minute now. I usually start getting rough after about 12 hours and by morning will definitely need to shave again.

Every once in a while, when everything is perfectly aligned in the universe, and the gods smile upon me, I can get a really close shave that stays smooth for nearly 24 hours.  Usually this occurs after I've skipped a day, am using a brand new blade and have hydrated my scalp extra-thoroughly in the shower.  Doesn't happen very often, but it's a real treat when it does.

john..... i knew when u started shaving that dome that u were gonna get addicted.   yeah.... i agree with andre.... u r officially  SLY.  yep.... the dreaded velcro head is why most of us shave everyday.  i usually get my dome shaved everyday but every now & then i skip a day.  however, i can only go 2 days without shaving the dome.  i start feeling "dirty" and "grimy" after that.  ya gotta luv a smooth slick dome.

I wish I could shave it everyday, but if I don't wait at least a day and a half I end up scraping the       
F!@# out of my melon.
