warm water, ahaving cream, razor, scrape scrape scrape, wash off face, apply bits of toilet paper to stop bleeding, apply aftershave, scream for 3 seconds...done...

This is a....different, topic.

Here goes. I run a sink full of warm water, then i get out my Gilette triple-bladed razor(screw electric), and apply shaving cream to my neck(i do it first), and I shave the right half first, in downward strokes, clean the razor in the water, then I get the otherside the same way. I then apply cream to my face, and once again, right side first, downward strokes, then the leftside. I then repeat the whole process, except I use upward strokes.

I find when you use both upward and downward, you get a smoother shave. I shave everything except my mustache which I keep thin and shave the middle part, and a 'dirty lip'(little bit of hair right under the lip). So yeah I have 'cholo' style facial hair lol.

Well.. I just plug the electric razor, turn it on and cut it. As simple as that... lol

I use some Wahl head shavers to get my head down to stubble...

I use some Wahl beard trimmers to get my chops thin and they go from ear to ear, under my chin.. I also use them to thin out my stache..

I've used a few different types of electronic trimmers, clippers, and shavers, and all I can say is spend a few extra bucks and get a wahl. Best way to do it is get ur barber to order them for you, get a few bucks off on his discount.

I shave about once a week (sometimes once every two weeks depends). I'm used to using my Mach 3 Turbo razors (or whatever goofy name they use). If and when I do shave I take off the mustache and soul patch, and if I'm going out I'll get rid of everything, EXCEPT the goatee. I havn't shaved my chin in almost a year and its about 3.5 inches long right now, with the tip dyed blood red. I used to dye the entire thing, but I'm just too lazy to go through the whole bleaching process (it's naturally black). Latly I keep it tied up with a small rubber band.

Now try and top that for strange

Are you that dude in Anthrax?

...Sadly no....Just a fan of both Scott Ian (Anthrax dude) and Dimebag Darrell (Pantera/Damageplan dude) who has too much time on his hands.

What Shingo said, only instead of screaming, it's cursing.
I use Gillette Sensor Excel...they try to make multiple kinds of new rzors so they can charge you a fortune for the blades which are more costly each upgrade...so I've stayed with Excel.
I keep a goatee/moustache which I trim every week or so with an electric trimmer, but I shave daily otherwise...I have to.
5 'o clock shadow looks nasty and unkempt.

First, I wash my face with very cold water, then I apply the shaving cream, then shave with a regular two-blade razor, and rince with slightly warm water.

Same here.

Unfortunately my electric razor seemed to stop working yesterday, so I have to get a new one.

I usually just let it grow for a few weeks, although I really should every day or so.

Here's a question, though. Why do all you people cut yourselves so much? I can honestly say that I've never cut myself shaving.

I second what Hyuga says. I've never cut myself shaving either.

I use the Lawmower. Seriously, i use eletric, can't stand blades, too slow. And yes, i do shave at 15...

Actually in the past 5.5 years of shaving I only cut myself once. That's because I not only went against the grain, but I pressed too hard aswell.

i dont really shave that often, i prefer hair, hehehe, but uh, i usually only shave like, when i have to go to a special place like uh... special occasion, ugh.

i usually use the old little blade, thoguh, i remember once someone dared me to use a switchblade, good god that was awkward, *shudders*, but yeah... i use blades, not electric, prefer it that way.

Im 16 and I've been shaving since the end of 8th grade (I'll be in 11th grade in about a week) I think a mustache looks bad on middle school kids! It's definitely a turn-off for girls or I'd think. I apply warm water usually after a shower then I add the shaving gel then use a disposable shaver.

mach 3 turbo, with the grain... whe I rush...

other wise colgate cream with aloe vera...cuz a girls gotta look good...

Same with me. I've cut myself so many times. I cut myself inside my nose once, lol. That's when I started to shave, though.

I take take out the old straight razor and rub on some cream with the shaving brush. Slash the blade across some leather a couple of time and im jolly good.

Because we're idiots who shouldn't be wielding sharp instruments in the 1st place.

Mach 3 Gillette. On Queer Eye For The Straight Guy they say that you're NOT supposed to shave upward, but downward if you don't want to damage your skin. The problem is, I find that shaving upward is the only way to get a clean shave??? (Right now I'm growing out my beard, and am pretty close to a Hagar-Goutique.

i use bacon grease as shaving cream and then a cheese-grater as my blade...i end up looking like a waffle after but hey a mans gotta do what a mans gotta do...ps Dimebags the man!!!

I shave in the shower, with Shave Gel and my
Mach 3. I shave almost everyday although I usually will take Saturday or Sunday off from the torture of shaving. I don't get cut or abrasions. The shower and humidity in the shower make shaving a breeze. I still hate it though.
