Have to agree with you Shaf. Try the aftershave balm along with it. I have the bad combination of a tough beard and sensitive skin and this stuff never leaves me with razor burn.

au contraire, Bald Dude. It's easy to learn with one of the ones that takes disposable single-edge blades. Only a narrow edge of blade sticks out, so it's really hard to cut your throat from ear to ear by accident.
Start by learning to shave your sideburn area, since it's probably flatter than the rest of your face. Then move on to other parts. The trickiest bits are right under your nose and under your jawline. It's all about controlling the angle of attack.
You're all on your own when it comes to shaving your sack, though.
GDG!
The flesh is weak, and the smell of pussy is strong like a muthafucka.
If you're going to get into a scrap, it's best not to shave for a few days so you can grind your whiskers into their eye sockets. That's all I have to offer this thread.

For real. A shaving cream review is bad enough, but f'ing Nivea?!

BTW, I use this stuff but underestimated the amount of lather that needs to be formed. Getting the texture of lather correct makes a still-better shave.

One of the downsides of the Internet is that it allows like-minded people to form communities, and sometimes those communities are stupid.
