No, but if you work real hard you can become a Blabbermouth.

Why yes there is! and you are already a member...we meet here about 20 times a day and discuss are future purchases and past shaves. Unfortunately no one has kicked the habit using our method yet..

Just wait until you swear your hair is growing faster and faster just so you can shave...and then comes the fasturbation ....thats when people either think you are in deep thought or they just look at your strangely....

"Everytime I try pulling away from this they just keep sucking me back in further and further each time"

Hey, remember that old shaving commercial from the 1960s or so with that guy using his new electric razor to shave a peach?. When you get the urge to shave just use your straight to shave a peach.

Let us know if the E.R. Doctors laugh at you when you tell them how you severed your thumb!

FYI,

I did manage to soap up, then just rinse without shaving a couple of days ago - this was hard, but to me it was worth it.

Cheers

I just make shaving a part of my morning routine. Then I keep myself too busy throughout the day. The weekend roadtrip was hard on me though. Only one shave in 3 days

wow. I only shave once every several days anyway (unless required by consequent business meetings) - before it was laziness, now it's waiting for the nicks to heal and the hairs to grow long enough for a good, comfortable, *burn-free* shave. Starting to enjoy straight shaving so when I improve, the waiting period might be shortened

I shave at night. We have 2 bathrooms but I still prefer to do it when I can relax and enjoy it the most. And it takes me a good hour or so - can't think of giving up this time in the morning

Just wait a few months...I can get an excellent quick 7 minute no nick or cut straight shave including prep and cleanup..I dont like rushing, but when I have too I'll do it just so I never have to shave with anything but a straight.

This should improve rapidly. When I first started it took 45 mins or so, so I used the DE on weekdays and the straight on the weekends. Then I used the Feather AC on weekdays and the straight on weekends, then I finally got quick enough to do a 15 min shave (prep, shave, and cleanup) which is only a few minutes more than the DE, so I switched to the straight full-time. I did one once in 7, but I didn't enjoy it.
