Title: Do you guys ever start shaving and...
Post by: benlen on December 05, 2012, 08:39:59 AM
...feel awesome through the act of shaving your head sly? The reason I ask is because the other day, when I was shaving my head, with a brand new blade, right out of the shower, I just felt great, and my head did too! Sometimes, shaving feels like this amazing massage on my scalp, it was just awesome.

Do you guys ever get this feeling, or is this a rookie thing that fades with time?

btw, 30 days sly!

It never gets to feel anything less than great, that's one of the really great things about sly.

Congrats on the  30 days, Ben!  -especially with the  resistance you have gotten, I know that was a special victory. b$@Y

I am pretty new to using the  razor, so I will be interested to see all the responses on this myself.  I know I feel a certain satisfaction after shaving my head too.

It's not a rookie thing at all!  You've experiencing the joy of shaving your dome.

It kinda looks like you still have hair on your head in your avi.

Well at almost 11 months,  it's still a special event, especially if the blades are new/sharp.

It always remains great. Only the other night, I had a particularly fine head shave. And felt terrific afterwards.

And congratulations on passing the 30 day trial.

It feels reductive.

Okay, seriously, I think many of us feel better after shaving our heads.

Can't wait for this fever to go. Still feel puny. No energy to even shave three full days of hair. Looking forward to the next shave. Maybe tomorrow.

Do you guys ever get this feeling,

Happens every morning without fail. For that alone I wouldn't go back to hair.

Definitely hasn't faded for me, especially after putting on a brand new blade!

I agree with all you guys. I still get exited every morning knowing I get to shave my head. Like a few of you mentioned , I too love a fresh razor day !  The sensations and feelings seem to be part of the motivation to stay slick, I love it!

The feeling you are describing never changes. There are some shaves that really stand out depending on a new blade etc. all part of  wing a Sly guy. Welcome to the forum!

It still feels good almost a year later, so the feeling isn't just a rookie thing.

Since I started about 2 weeks ago, I've been shaving every morning before work. However yesterday, I was lazy and let it grow a bit. I wound up shaving around 3 PM - so there was nearly 36 hours of growth. The shave was sensational - no nicks and an incredible difference between stubble and smoothness. I let it go to the afternoon again today and had similar joy, smooth and nick less. I wish I could get myself on a routine where there were more than 24 hours between shaves but that'd end the 30 day challenge. We'll see what happens tomorrow morning!
