Suggestions on a 3-day?
« on: November 11, 2007, 04:23:30 PM »
Got back from hunting tonight...and I think that 3-day growth is gonna need a morning mowing.

Suggestions?

Probably a hot towel to soften up everything for a while.

New blade?  Take it slow...do doubt.

Man, I never go more than a day...but for the deer you can't look or smell too purty.

(Not that it helped much...  >:( )

You can always use some clippers to get it down closer and then use the blade.
People are not limited by the circumstance that they are born in. They are limited by the size of their dreams. Show them that their dreams can have no limits and in turn their accomplishments can be limitless.

Get a good soaking in the shower, then use a fresh blade and just take your time.  I've shaved up to a week's worth of stubble without using a clippers first and it was no problem.

When I was going through my back-and-forth shaving and regrowing phase a few years back, I remember going to a barber to get shaved.  I had a #1 buzz that had been grown out for a week.  I was nervous as hell when the barber smeared some lather through the stubble and then took a straight razor to it.  I'd expected him to use the clippers first. I thought my scalp would be in shreds, but he did a great job.

You should be ok with a 3 day growth, just make sure you soften it up a bit first. I've been known to go a week without shaving, but I wreck a Fusion cartridge trying to shave that much growth in one shave.  :/O
Just say no to rugs!
