I have just started using my str8, and i dont know why but for some reason, i have begun to look forward to shaving, not just simple anticipation, but more like a kid on christmas eve. Is this a normal process, or am i the only one with this problem, (that is said very tounge in cheek).
:gth

Amongst the regulars here it's quite common.
Amongst the "lemmings" that are using the mock353 and the mini lawn mowers it is probably looked on as weird.
I'm not the only one then!
Yep - welcome to weirdo world!!:D
It's funny - you get frustrated that your beard doesn't grow quickly enough!
I've been doing this about 4 months now - still look forward to shaving. (Bit like surfers looking for the perfect wave, I'm looking for the perfect shave - though I'm generally happy with a pretty good one!)
All the best,
Michael.
Hi,
In the bad old days when I used to use a Mach 3, I hated shaving with a vengeance :mace:
When I switched to 'proper' wet-shaving, using a DE I started to enjoy my shaves.
Now with the straights, the daily shave has become one of the best and most enjoyable parts of my day :)
Best regards
Russ
I wish I could do the daily shave. My hair grows fast enough that I can do about 1.5 days between shaves, but if I do that it doesn't make for a nice schedule. So I'm a M/W/F shaver. If I am feeling particularly hairy, I may throw in a saturday afternoon shave too. Just depends.
But I love every shave.
I also look forward to every shave :confused: wasnt like that before, sure hated it. now, i call it my MAN TIME all 1 full hour of it. 3 times a week. (if you're wondering only 3 times a week??!?!!, i have very sensitive skin :P ) before it was once a week with a clipper,,not even a razor.
Oh yeah...it's normal. Over a year in, and days that I am too rushed to get a proper straight shave (still do the DE route, but perhaps cutting some corners) I feel like I am wasting the shave.
On a sunday, when I know I have plenty of time, and have two days growth, I look forward to it for a good chunk of the day!
