I don't like using cream when I shave because I don't like having to rinse it off my hands, so I just use water and a razor, but then it burns when I do it.

Shaving cream scares me. Mainly because my ex-stepdad used to put it on his face and acted like he had Mad Cow Disease.

I only shave when I ABSOLUTLY have to, and even then I hate it, loathe it and despise it, I try to just get away with taking clippers to my beard when it gets too out of hand

Oh. Don't get me started on shaving. I shave every morning, unless I sleep in. But rare indeed is the day when I do not cut myself shaving.

I suppose I should get an electric shaver but I keep procrastinating on that.

The first time I shaved with a razor was on the morning of my first day of my first job. Unfortunately it seems I had a misconception of how to actually shave. I applied the gel to my face - no water!! and shaved. As it is, remember I don't shave without cutting myself, so you can imagine the results. My dad said I looked like I'd been in a gang fight. Well it must have been some bloody gang fight.

I'll be 17 in a few days and I'm still not shaving, I've never even tried it. I know I'll have to one day or I'll end up like a monkey man but for now I don't get out much and the hair's a very light blonde colour so it's sort of hard to see. :?

shaving is like brushing your teeth, you have to get use to it and not look at it like its a meaningless chore. i personally shave every 4 days or so. i cant really grow any kind of facial hair. i'd prolly complain about shaving if i could, lol.

I don't like using razors as I invariably cut myself,but I electric shavers aren't good enough
because my stubble is too thick. I use an electric one then have to carefully tidy up the remaining stubble with the razor.If I don't shave every morning I end up looking like a
werewolf by the evening.
