W&B Full-beard Removal
Well, this morning I told my wife I was probably going to shave off my full beard. Although she was sad, I have been wanting to get ready for summer, and clean up more than just my neck and cheeks. So, I opted to NOT use the clippers this time, and instead just see if my W&B wedge could handle it.
I was actually pretty surprised! Although I had to clean the blade off MUCH more frequently than normal, and I got a little bit of tugging on my chin, it performed quite well.

I am going to say great job. Where is the before and after photo? That is a beautiful looking W&B wedge. Wish I had one. Envious. Enjoy and now your shaves will be easier, less hair to remove.

Great blade! I too just shaved off my full heard after a long winter's growth, but now it miss it and am growing it back out, despite some crazy hot TN weather ahead.

My wife wants me to grow my beard back also, so I may, even with some crazy how Virginia Beach weather on its way! Originally Posted by Chreees

Feels drafty, doesn't it?

Ah the dilemma of the recently shaven man ... I was in this boat over Christmas. The joy of getting more proficient with my straight has meant I haven't grown my beard back yet (notice I said yet). Maybe over the Australian winter it may reappear, but for now I'm enjoying testing out my honing skills on the whole of my face.
Congratulations on a successful shave with a great looking razor.JoelLewicki likes this.- Chris -
