Thread: Anyone else like the sting?

I might be beating a dead horse here, as I am new. Has anyone else grown to love that stinging sensation of applying some good aftershave after a cold rinse and a hot shave? I just bought some Dominican Bay Rum, it has a nice scent and a good sting too it, although I wish the scent was a little heavier but over all I enjoy using it, post shave.

Yes, I too enjoy a good sting, but even better is the cooling sensation after.

Yup, I've always liked the sensation of alcohol on a cut/graze. However, when I'm applying aftershave I have a 'job well done' feeling when I don't get any stinging. So it's win-win.

Ummm like Matt I think the sting is a good gage on how well I am doing. I prefer less sting. In fact the only sting I enjoy would be the faint barely there sting. Now let's talk real enjoyment like a splinter under the finger nail or metal chip in the palm of you hand that you can't get out.

I like the sting, the faster it goes away the better my technique is getting.

Interesting, I never thought of the sting as a measurement of how good the shave was! I will have to pay attention to that in the future...

If you like a good sting, try some Clubman Pinaud, that will definitey give you some feedback on how your shaves are progressing. It's an eye-opener! It's a must have for your collection of AS's.

I agree, & the scent is among the best out there.

The Dominica sting is better than a hot cup of joe at 5a.m.
