Thread: Toughest spot to shave?

OK, so what is the most difficult spot to shave?

For me it's the adam's apple since all of the hair grows horizontally in one direction, so no matter what I do I'm shaving somewhat from the top of the adam's apple down the side.

I voted neck, but I really mean that area where my neck meets my lower jaw area and starts to go horizontal. Is that still my neck?

Adam's Apple hands down for me. My chin was causing problems till I maned up and learned to do ATG. Still use a bic for that spot.

For me it's the neck, the hair grows in only two or three directions but meet in a zig-zag pattern that means I always am hitting something ATG (or at least obliquely ATG) on the 1st pass. [All of the mergers are in the curve area of the neck and make XTG impossible].

For me it is the neck as well. The skin is too soft and the whiskers grow in odd directions, the valleys caused on either side of the trachea make manuevering difficult, etc, etc.

I have to say the neck also, change in hair growth and more changing contours.

Neck also. It all grows in one direction, east/west, ear to ear. While I can get an angle on most of it, ATG is just not possible (unless someone has a tip).

OK, here's a helpful hint for all of us who have troubles with shaving the ol' neck:


Neck beard

You know, it's funny... I find my neck is quite easy. The hair all grows in one direction and I can turn my head in such a way to make the sides of it pretty flat, and the front is just delicate. What I have a horrible problem with is under my lower lip, I cut myself there at least once almost every shave, actually, it's the only place I've actually bled from while having with a straight. That hair is like iron bristles.

My chin is also a nightmare. I just can't find the right angles, or shift angles swiftly enough...
