But if it ain't broke and you don't fix it, how do find out if something works better? ???

Easy answer to that question: You take a look on <slybaldguys.com> and see what has worked for everyone else... No better place to get product reviews, statements, and just get a feel for what may work if you try it. O0

What's up my Sly Bros.? I've recently started using the HB. It does a decent job but not too well with me against the grain. But the problem I'm having is my face. I sport a goatee so I have to shave my whole face. I've tried to go against the grain on my face as I do my dome but my face gets very irritated. Especially under my neck. My head is completely fine as long as I take my time, and of course use the best products ever...Hint, hint--HeadShed, HeadSlick, then some HeadLube to follow. I've had some success on one or two shaves going against the grain on my face. But for the most part I either get really irritated or the next day I get a few razor bumps. >:( Since I've been using the HeadBlade I switch the blade around and use it on my face. I thought maybe using that as a face blade was the problem. But I tried my old Mach 3 against the grain on my face and it did a little bit of a better job. I've just been going with the grain for the past few days to give my skin a rest. Does anyone have any good suggestions on a method I can use to keep the irritation down on my face if I want to go against the grain? Also, are there other people out there that go against the grain on both the dome and the face?

I go against the grain on my head and on my face and don't have a problem dude. Looks like you may have to just stay with shaving with the grain. I can't think of anything else.

I always shave against and with the grain because I want nothing but slick. The Clear Head seems to have really cut down on the bumps for me. I do rinse with really cold water after my shave and before I apply the clear head. Just a thought, any change in diet recently? Every so often witht he wrong foods, my face with decide to go through puberty again. Also, maybe you're applying more pressure on your face than on your head, just a few thoughts.
