Thread: Toughest spot to shave?

I'm gonna say chin too. Why isn't that on the poll?

The chin gives me fits. so many contours and so many short strokes, it seems as if I'm shaving individual whiskers one at a time.

I've never been able to shave between my toes well and this is regardless of whether I hold the razor in my left or right foot.

My nostrils. I reallly need a 1/8 for them
I have thought about getting a razor with a barbers notch so I could get some of the blade up my nose, then just ream them out.......
Oh! and my right palm.

I think none apply. In my opinion it's the chin that's the toughest.

Toughest spot to get well is my chin. Hair grows in all directions and the curvature is a challenge.
I most often cut my neck area.
Bad motorcylce accident in 72 cut up my neck real good. lots of scars...so gettin in and out of the scar mountains is tuff.

Definitely the chin, because I don't switch hands the right side of the chin always seems to be less well shaved.

Exactly. I think I only have one layer of skin on my neck --so easy to nick myself-- meanwhile the whisker direction is complicated and, yes, those valleys. How do you get in there? The left side of my neck is the toughest because the whiskers grow forwards (towards trachea) and yet the natural motion when shaving with left hand is toward ear, hence xtg. I want to find a video of an expert shaving his neck.

The chin is tough but at least it's convex. Concave is much tougher for me.

Chin by far for me. My hair there seems that not one hair is facing in the same direction. On top of that, due to scar tissue, I'm always enflaming roots. So, the next shave produces a series of nicks. Which leads to nicks and so on and so on......
