I'm moving up from DEs and SEs. I haven't touched a straight yet. Very soon, though.

With that said, since I've been "wet shaving", I always reach for a BBS, rarely get it, but am a helluva lot closer than I was a couple years ago. I've got good prep, technique is not bad.

I have a pretty coarse beard, I think. I don't show a shadow by noon, but I have curly hair and my beard grows every which a way. Diagraming it has been a bi&*$. Still working on that.

I keep telling myself that two passes on a work day is good enough. Sometimes I listen to myself, sometimes I don't.

If I have time and the annalities have really set in, four passes and touch ups, and usually still not BBS all the way around.

I have to constantly remind myself that you gotta know when to say when.
50 y.o. and still working on that. Humph.. Someday
