Thread: Difficulty Shaving Under Chin

My wife said to duct tape my face. Smart ass woman...

I have the very same problem. Looking at your diagram. I save this till the cleanup which means that what is left is at a minimum. I use my left hand and stretch the skin up then I take my right hand with the razor and just cut underneath from my ear to my chin, under my jaw line. Works very well. You can't always see the razor and have to go by feel, but it works very well and you get a BBS.


Take Care,

I also have the exact same problem. I can never get it perfect there, but after a year of straight shaving I'm getting darn close. I do a three pass shave then a plain water final touch up. just keep working with it and you'll get there.

My similar spots are so bad that even with a DE or cartridge I can miss spots there all the time.

Thanks very much, guys... Will print this post and practice.

I was having trouble shaving under my chin. (See pix in original post.) So, I posted this message to solicit help. Several of the techniques suggested here were of help, and for a few days now my shave under the chin has been pretty good. Not perfect, but acceptable.

Tonight, I tried something that also helped that I will mention. I shaved under the chin, where the chin and neck meet, as usual. But, after I was done and had rinsed off, and the skin had cooled, I shaved again. Basically, a shave of bare skin. After doing so, my skin under the chin has almost no discernible stubble.

Possibly, the cooling off exposed slightly more hair for shaving.
