Watch this video and see how high the guy's cheeks are being shaved.

Do you guys shave that area? :/O I think it's crazy. If you do this for a long time you will be a werwolf.

I have to shave that high as my beard grows that far up.
-
really Stephen? You can always go for electiolysis for that area of your cheeks to remove those hairs permanently. I don't know but I have this feeling that shaving that area will create a dark shadow and mess up the beard line.
-
If you have hair there, you have to shave it. And we told you before, shaving does not make the hair grow back thicker.
-
lol I know Razor, I will not forget that humiliation. But it will create a dark shadow and I don't think it's right to shave there. :P
Here is another video where the guy shaves close to his eyes.

I don't think the "beard line" comes only naturally. It has to be influenced by how far high you used a razor. If you want to have a nice beard line you have to avoid shaving after a certain level on your cheeks.
-
But if there is hair there...you have to shave it. There is no saying where you hair will grow. where your cheek bone is under your eye...I have to shave that high. I didnt watch the video but I can imagine from what I am reading. No one has ever said anything to me before except for one person and i just looked at them really funny, they told me that they couldnt believe I shaved that area. Why wouldnt I? there is hair there.

Exactly. It would look pretty odd if you didn't shave it.

Here's a guy who apparently shaved too high up on his face:

lol there you go! No but honestly the way I see it is if you shave that high you must be shaving everyday. I shave my face once a week, so I would imagine if I were to shave too high up I wouldn't get a nice beard line with cute hair free cheeks in the top section. :@`
-
I shave everday...just a natural part of me. I do have a beard of some sort....so I keep it that way.

Shave one cheek every day for the next couple of months and see if it's any hairier than the other one. :D
-
lol, well I do have very few light hairs below my eyes & above beard line but I will leave them alone. If they get thicker I will do something about it, but I will still not shave them. I just can't imagine what it does to your beard line, and I don't want to take any risks. The reason why I brought up this topic is because I didn't know that some people actually shave that area. It's interesting.

You'd be surprised at what some people shave. Timmay shaves his palms. >:D

NOT ALL THE TIME! I like doing things a lil different everynow and then. SOrta gives me the feeling that I am out on a new date. LOL
-
Yeah, Dude, I have to shave almost up to my eyes, too. I get hair growing there, it's not really thick, but it is there.
-
and Razor, I dont think it is much of a surprise anymore about body shaving....

Yeah, I've learned a few things that I didn't really need to know on the topic, thanks to this forum. :-[

Math Guy ~ you'll be surprised by how your follicular population will grow and spread over the years. By the time you're forty you'll have hair advancing to places where you don't have any now. It's the years and years of all that testosterone.
I had a teacher in high school who had whiskers on his upper cheeks that he didn't shave and it looked like he did a half shave job -- dumb looking. And then there was another teacher who had multiple half- inch-long black hairs sprouting from the top of his nose. :XX But that's another topic.

Ok now look at this guy's neck http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1068/576984458_22c71230a8.jpg
Notice how far down his neck his "shadow" is. Man, imagine if he were to let hair grow on his neck for 2 days without shaving..........his neck would look horrible. I don't believe in "shave where you see hair". There's got to be point below which you say "no" to shaving hairs on your neck and do something else....because otherwise you will get a shadow that just doesn't look good.
-
whats wrong with him? i dont understand what im soposed to be looking for? lol
-
what's wrong with him? :/O
Don't you think his (shaving) shadow on his neck goes wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too far down.
-
hey hold on, off topic,......I just realized I am now "Super Sly". Wow, so proud of myself. I see new section(s) opening up. Nice.
-
the only "shadow" i see is his groomed and lined up beard.
i admit he does have a bit of a double chin but i dont really understand what "shadow" your talking about. i dont see a shadow, only a beard.
-
lol ya ive been "super sly" for a while. the sad thing is i joined this board like a week or 2 after you too lol. shows how much of a life i have lol. im heading towards 400 posts and ive only been a member since october.
-
400 post LOL...LMAO.....ROTFLMAO....hell yo think you dont have a life, look at my post.. lol
-
ya but youve been a member since 07 lol. 400 in 4 months is pretty bad lol
-
lol Ghost. I have (2.447 per day). You have 2.923 per day). TimmJ has 12.494 per day).
So you decide who has more of a life lol. ;D ;D
TimmJ on a typical day posts about 7 posts more than me & you combined.
And about the shaving the neck. I don't know if I am explaining it correct. What I'm saying is when you shave somewhere it sorts of changes your skin colour or whatever, like you could tell that area has been shaved (whereas tweezing for example you would never suspect there were hairs there before). I just don't like that I guess.

You just don't seem to get it. If there's hair high on the cheeks or lower on the neck, it has to be shaved. Otherwise it will look like a hot mess. You might think the shadow looks bad, but do you think hairy cheeks and a hairy beard are going to look acceptable? Especially if the guy isn't wearing a beard? ???
I don't see a thing wrong with the photo you posted.

Well Razor I don't think I have a solution. It's one of those things where you think something is wrong but you have no alternative in mind. Hairy cheeks and hairy beard will not look acceptable if he isn't wearing a beard, that's for sure. But then as I said imagine if he were to let hairs grow on his neck for 5 days without shaving, it would look so bad because the hairs are going so low on his neck. Wouldn't he want the option of allowing hairs to grow on his neck for a few days sometime in his life? :(
-

Why? If he's just not going to shave anything for 5 days, it isn't a problem. I doubt most people would even take notice of how low the hair on his neck is.
I just saw a little bit of the film Hostage on TV today. Bruce Willis had a beard in the beginning of the film, that grew really high on his cheeks and it looked really bad.
Before I started shaving my head, I used to let my beard go for a few days, especially on long weekends. But I'd always take a few seconds to shave the cheeks, because otherwise I'd feel too self-conscious about it.
-
This thread is funny.
Math - hair growth in random places is something you'll need to get used to. Just like the MPB guys have and are adapting to losing hair. I have to shave my neck pretty low - because there is hair there. I also don't notice any sort of shadow after it's shaved. Body hair = MAN.
-
This thread is funny.
...Body hair = MAN.
Yes, this is funny. Body hair can also be indicative of lycanthropy!
Aaaawooooooooooooo! :D
-
Michael, could you give a little help with "lycanthropy" ? I'm too lazy to look it up.
SBG Math is going to be a mess when he turns 40 and he has all sorts of new hair sprouting up in hitherto unpopulated locationsj! :D
-
Alright enough. You guys think this is funny? :x!
Just kidding guys. MLNHD i hope you are wrong. ;D
I don't know if you guys ever watch for example hockey players when they are being questionned by the press.
You know they sometimes don't have time to shave for a week or so and you can see hairs going down their necks so much.
To me, I like having facial hair but only when I can have a real nice looking hairline. If you have for example hair way too low on your neck then you kind of have to create that precious line yourself by having to shave those hairs that are on the lower part of your neck. That's so inconvenient.
So I usually try not to go too low but here is the problem I end up having. There is some hairs left on my neck and as MLNHD put it it makes it look "half shaved". That's plain ugly. Who knows maybe I will go for electrolysis to eliminate those hairs permanently. I really don't like the way shaved hairs come back when they grow. They create a mess on your skin
-
Sometimes you just cant help where hair grows. If you have to shave it, you have to shave it. You have no choice, well you do in a way. You can either just let it grow and look real scruffy or shave it. You pick.
-
Finally ,ive been searching for a topic about this for awhile. Im currently 20 and i started to notice peach fuzz growing there but much thicker than normal im starting to get bothered cause i wasnt sure what to do.
And as mentioned i dont wanna even use an electric shaver that high cause i dont wanna have a messed up beard line. But im starting to notice that a very few rare darker hairs are appearing where the fuzz meets the beard line. I really dont wanna get a bear line underneath my eye as to me that'll look very bad. So is this really safe to shave that high ?
I've never heard or seen this before? other than the "wolf man" that was shown in a pic =P
-
If you start shaving that high then my guess is that you would have to shave everyday.
Otherwise you will look weird in public. While it is true that shaving doesn't create darker hairs
it does affect one's image.
If you are someone like me, who likes to grow facial hair and only shaves once every 6 days then it probably won't work. Once you start shaving the area above the natural beard line you would have to shave it everyday or at least 6 days a week to keep those hairs away.
The other option you have is to go for electrolysis. If you talk to a practitioner who has lots of experience they will get the job done. By the way, I am doing this at the moment...........so feel free to message me if you need me to explain the benefits I have obtained so far. Just like you, the hairs are not dark yet, but I refuse to shave that high.
-
I shave that high area too, if I didn't it would look like my beard is trying to take over my face
-
I agree. I shave that high, for the same reasons as everyone else. You shave where the hair is, so there isn't anymore hair. The only thing I leave is my goatee. Well, and obvious body hair, I like to prepare for the cold winters...lol
-
I get hairs growing right up to the orbital bone and therefore shave that high. Granted, they are few, but I can quickly remove them without any damage. Coincidentally (or not) I tend to be most prone to blackheads in the same area.
And i also get them on my neck all the way down to my collar. Oddly, not a single hair on the chest or back. But the ones on the neck grow like wild if not tamed regularly and just look wrong.
