    I had my first serious cut in almost eight years of straight shaving early this summer. Long story short: I had had two alcoholic drinks, but figured I was still good to shave. I wasn't. Two seconds of not paying attention gave me a nice cut next to the corner of my mouth.

    Lots of tissue paper, pressure and super glue later, it's a minor scar, partially covered by my moustache. I kept stretching the skin around it regularly for weeks to prevent it from healing too fast; a thing I remember they advised my brother to do when he had third degree burns on his hand. The slower a wound heals, the less it scars.

    Tl;dr: Remember to stretch. Don't drink and shave. Or eat something first, at least

    Good advise, super glue works a treat, my guys love it, cause without it I get out my fishing line and needle and apply their stitches. Tc
