Intermittent head shaver
« on: February 06, 2009, 08:33:42 AM »
Anyone else an intermittent shaver?

I usually shave for a while and then let it grow back into to a brush cut and then shave and repeat.

It saves me the 5 minutes shaving time a day  ;)

I am totally committed to head shaving.  Can't miss a day, and can't even think how I would feel if I grew my hair even 1mm long! 8)

I absolutely cannot connect with that.  I had a thought this morning that maybe, just maybe, I would skip today and just shave my face.  Couldn't do it, the feel of the patchy, stubble on top was too much.  Realistically I know no one would notice but I would.  I think I'm becoming really obsessed w/ smooth and sly O:O--no help is wanted. O0  I did wind up leaving a one day stubble "goat" and that will come off tomorrow in all likelihood.  Smooth is just too nice for me at least.

Maybe if your hairline is symmetrical it would work--mine is anything but--, or if you're bbc it's an option--that's just not my world.

I buzz my head to the bone with clippers so I probably just look like an intermittent head shaver. I like how the stubble feels and enjoy looking like I shaved my head 5 days ago. I do plan on taking a blade to it once golf season starts but a daily routine? I doubt it.

No "brush" outgrowth allowed for this melon.  I like smooth too much to tolerate anything else!  Once a day is mandatory.

I'm usually smooth every day, but every so often I will let the stubbs grow for a few days. I like the look now and then, and it gives the scalp a break.
When I do have my next shave, man is it super smooth!   O0

 ^-^ Every day, and sometimes once in the morning and again in the early evening. Not obsessive, buy love the tactile smoothness--and lately the gloss--too much to let  the velcro come back. Also, have repeatedly noticed that a two-day growth  is much harder to take down, and occasionally produces knicks and abrasions. Slick for life, Professor Melon
