Title: My hair is too thick?
Post by: Cameron on February 19, 2010, 01:01:06 PM

Hi everyone,
I posted on here for a few months a couple of years ago.  It was the third or fourth time I had gone sly for a spell. 

I'm considering doing it again.  But here's my concern, and the reason I stopped before: my hair is extremely thick.  Even when I shave against the grain (which I find very painful), or even when I shave twice a day, it still looks like a shadow.  In other words, you can still easily discern the line where my hair starts.  From a few feet, I look like a buzz cut instead of shaved, which I'm not a fan of.

I come back today asking you gentlemen if you have any new ideas to fix this.  I'd love to rejoin your ranks, but I need to look polished and clean for my job, and a shadow over my head is anything but.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

You rock the SLY look and the fact your wife loves it is even better!!!

I envy you, you have the best of both worlds...being BBC.

I'm confident between trying out different blades and skin/shaving products you will find something that works.

You may just have to change out your blades more often than most.

I am the epidimy of the shadow.  My hair is as thick as steel wool.

Cameron,

I had the same problem, I have really thick hair, If I ever skip a day, It's a pain to shave it, eventually the hair does grow in slower, it just takes longer the thicker your hair is.
