and it took exactly 21 minutes. (not including putting on shaving gel). just strictly shaving. is that longer than you guys take? theres no way i can do it in a shorter time than that unless i only go over my head once and against the grain.

So was that timed with you trying to make a time goal, or you actually shaving like you would normally do?

I would say it takes me about 25 minutes or so against the grain, and a bit quicker with the grain.

What is neat is that is about the time it takes to get a nice haircut at a barbers.

post shower/at sink/Headblade/atra/shave oil/with and against the grain = 15 minutes.  Seems long to me, but when I'm done, it's PERFECT.  Any shorter and I miss spots or draw blood, or both.

I am shaving every other day for the time being. Noticed my head was getting to irritated, and I had some hair going ingrown, so going to give it a few weeks of shaving with the grain before I go back to against.

7 minutes

thats insanium! lol. im assuming you have a horseshoe shadow though? maybe thats why it only takes 7 minutes? i only have a little strip of hair in the front but i have all my hair on my crown and top so i guess that gives me a few more minutes. 14 to be exact lol.
