Title: Razor Shave to #1
Post by: sos8000 on March 10, 2009, 11:14:41 PM

Wondering how long it will take to regrow to a #1... 2 weeks perhaps?

It's different for everyone, but I'd say about 1 week for me.

Have no idea because since I've shaved, the most I've gone is 3 days before reshaving.  I doubt that will ever change.  For me getting to a #1, it's probably like those commercials about how many licks to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop... the world may never know.  (Sorry, I'm dating myself)

It is said that hair grows around 1/2 inch per month.  So if your hair grows 1/2 inch per month and a #1 is 1/8 of an inch, you're looking at 7 days assuming that a month is 28 days.

Dude, your melon is looking too good to put hair back on it; are you liking it?  You should keep it for the suggested 30 days before you decide what to do.

Looks great!  Why would you even consider covering up that dome with stubble?  ???

1) After Shave "Smooth".
2) 24 hrs later you T-Shirt sticks to your head when trying to slide it over your head.
3) 48 Hours there is minute stubble poking through.. usually heading for a razor at this point.
4) 3 days later dark stubble and you can "just" feel some length in the little suckers (that's if you have not already dealt with them, which I would have !)
5) After 7 days it is really looking like a buzz cut, and you are back in the world of the "hairy headed" people.

PS T-Shirt sliding over a smooth head is a pretty cool feeling..  O0

Yeah, it's a week or less for me. Just went camping and did like a 4 day no shave stretch. I was pretty close to a one already!!
