I made an ice cream cone and put ice cream everygoddamnwhere in my 'stach

Urrgh

@coolboymew
You've got a mustache?

@Elfie right now? A beard and mustache, yes

I usually only shave with a clipper because of skin problems making a full shave simply not worth it

@coolboymew @Elfie straight razor?
I got skin problems too, but using one blade rather than the popular 3 blade technology seems to be better for my skin. You could have similar problem maybe.

@Hyperhidrosis @Elfie The 3 blades yes. There's a better way? Also I'm never able to somehow do a very clean shave, there's always a 5 o'clock shadow when I'm done

But either way, I kinda don't want to spend 20 mins doing this shit properly only to have 1 week of skin issues, it's kinda not worth it lmao

@coolboymew @Elfie 3 blades is psyop there’s no need for 3 blades to scrape at your skin to remove 1 hair. Using a single sharp blade is enough to remove the hair. Also shaving against the grain of the hair is much easier to get it all in one go.

And using a lot of face cream is also based. Lube up your face after washing with warm water then begin the process.

Usually only do this for special occasions. Otherwise I just use electric shaver.

@Hyperhidrosis @Elfie 3 blades shit are annoying because stuff gets stuck under the blades often

Otherwise, yeah, I do use a lot of cream, go against the grain and and I have a technique for moustache hair

But yeah, electric shaver is faster, but it never seem to do the complete job for me. I just use a clipper as a look better with stubble anyways

@coolboymew @Hyperhidrosis @Elfie Just get the safety razor. 5 cents a blade and a fresh one does way, WAY better than anything else. If you have a screw-down handle like this you can actually change the level of tension bending the blade, altering its angle of attack. Want it softer and less aggressive? Tighten it up. Wanna get rid of stubble? dial the collar back a bit and watch it disappear.

And yeah, the lathering takes longer. I know a dude who just straight up shaves under the water in the shower, somehow doesn’t break out in rashes. Said the trick is just having a sharp blade, so he changes it out about 2-3x per week. Without all the later it takes all of 2 minutes or so. The cost to performance ratio is just unbeatable.

@WashedOutGundamPilot @Elfie @coolboymew @Hyperhidrosis I use a safety razor in the shower. I use a brush and shave soap set and a fog-proof mirror. Be prepared to cut the shit out of your face until you get the hang of it though.
