shaving September 21, 2014, 08:08:52 am I just tried king of shaves shaving oil and I think it will revolutionise my daily shaving regime.Cant believe I havent used it sooner. Baggers, haven't tried it on the stump and nuts yet but I a msure I will Anyway, what do people here use? I jump in and out of electric razors and gilette fusion (bloody expensive) Quote Selected
Re: shaving Reply #1 – September 21, 2014, 09:23:11 am Mach three blades. I can't justify going fusion.Aside from that shaving gel. Whatever brand.What I do prior to shaving is wash my shaving area with a wash that has little beads in it to remove dead skin and allow a smoother shave. Quote Selected
Re: shaving Reply #2 – September 21, 2014, 09:36:25 am Lance, I do use the King of Shaves gel. Good stuff.If you enjoy a "fresh" start to the morning, try their menthol gel. Too much for me. Quote Selected
Re: shaving Reply #3 – September 21, 2014, 09:41:17 am You guys serious? Shaving as soon as I get out of the shower without shaving cream with a disposable, 1 blade razor is fine by me. Quote Selected
Re: shaving Reply #4 – September 21, 2014, 09:43:43 am Much cheaper.I use a shaving cream with a brush, after I shower of course. Quote Selected
Re: shaving Reply #5 – September 21, 2014, 09:59:07 am I just shave in the shower, no gel required. Quote Selected
Re: shaving Reply #6 – September 21, 2014, 10:02:49 am I use an electric Braun and dont use blades..prefer a bit of stubble on the face as well, I dont ever shave too close as its not great for your skin. Quote Selected
Re: shaving Reply #7 – September 21, 2014, 10:06:32 am always throw on some proraso after a shave, sometimes before and after - feels great Quote Selected
Re: shaving Reply #8 – September 21, 2014, 10:14:58 am LR... stump and nuts? You're a fair-dinkum classic. I wouldn't let any blade within a kilometre of that region!!!!As for shaving the 'regular' area... same as 3 Leos. Straight after the shower use a 'sensitive' shaving cream as prone to ingrowns/rashes. Copious after shave (prefer Guerlain products). Quote Selected
Re: shaving Reply #9 – September 21, 2014, 10:17:47 am Shaving? Once a week luxury...can of hot water from the brekkie fire, wing mirror from the Toyota... Cheap disposable blades because they're munged after scraping off the veener of red dust, sunblock, fly spray etc Quote Selected
Re: shaving Reply #10 – September 21, 2014, 11:03:53 am I have often questioned the value of the expensive blades I buy.Might try cheaper disposable ones.Anyone tried a straight razor? Quote Selected Last Edit: September 21, 2014, 11:19:41 am by LanceRomance

Re: shaving Reply #12 – September 21, 2014, 11:17:05 am Meh I hate shaving.I used to use a Gilette Mach 3 about once a week, but my crazy girlfriend and I had an argument over some trivial crap last weekend and she decided to throw my razor and all the blades away for some reason (along with hiding all of my phone chargers somewhere and throwing my shower gel out into the yard... like I said, she be crazy).So last night I used a disposable for the first time since I was 15... and it hurt... I actually went through three of them before I learned the 'one light brush at a time' technique that allowed me to finish the job.14 or so hours later, my face still hurts.Fml. Quote Selected

Re: shaving Reply #14 – September 21, 2014, 01:16:34 pm I have a fusion. I've found it the most comfortable (and quickest) by far which is important because my skin is super sensitive and I can't be arsed standing in front of a mirror. Quote Selected
