Thread: Stretching the skin... a ? for glasses wearers

I had to get a different RX for computer use. These work well for shaving with a regular mirror. When the frame causes an issue with ATG I use more of a diagonal stroke.

Facial yoga helps, too. I don't wear glasses except for readers but learning to move your chin and jaw and neck to accomodate the stretching with less use of the hands should be helpful.

I don't hav sideburns. So I carefully shave from the bow of my glasses down an inch in front of my ear with no stretching. Then I pull up from just above my glasses bow be reaching over my head and shave another inch. This allows me to then move down to below my glasses bow and strech normally for the rest of my face.

That first inch up by my hairline with no strech isn't ever very smooth on the first pass when compared to the patch below it wher I can strech. I make it up, though, on my second pass where I go across the grain. Here the glasses don't get in the way and I even things out. I wouldn't recommend skipping that first little cut though, it does reduce the beard and ity keeps your sideburns cut straight.
