There's always ear hair and nose hair trimming with a straight - close enough to a head shave....:P

forget the nose. ouch. but the ears, I've done that. It's really not that bad until you have to try to get those pesky ones that grow close to the ear canal

Be brave and give it a whirl! Square point, proper angle, and a slow scoop (like on the mustache) and you have a BBS nostrils HA!

I second the square point for nose and ear hair. Works like a charm

Thanks for getting this going. I haven't started shaving my head with a straight, still working on the face and improving my stropping. I have been learning the process with a DE. I started with a Headblade Sport and have a hard time leaving it. I can get close to BBS most days with it and after denting and dinging my skull for the first year using it, well I haven't been too eager to start cutting my skull again. The DE use is coming along. I just don't do multiple passes yet.

Just a quick note.
The sub-forum, while agreed upon by the staff has not yet been added.
Sorry for the confusion.
Hopefully you'll be able to find it under shaving within a day or two

I saw that it had 47 views, but no other post. Pretty sure I'm not the only head shaver?

I am going to be the exact opposite. When mine comes in, I will start by shaving my head first, and continuing with the DE razor on my face. My scalp has always been the easiest part of my shave, so I figure I will do my learning there first.
