View Poll Results: How thoroughly do you shave?

Voters
175. You may not vote on this poll

  • One pass then I'm off to work before I'm late. I'm not a slave to my shaving.

    10 5.71%

  • Two passes to get it pretty smooth. I enjoy spending some time on it if I'm not rushed.

    107 61.14%

  • Three passes with scented candles and atmospheric music. Shaving is a journey, not a destination.

    25 14.29%

  • As many as it takes to get that fabled BBS! I might have OCPD!

    Default Poll: How thorough are you?

    Allright gents, time to weigh in on your daily shave. I have discussed this with a few folks privately, but I'm curious what the general consensus will be.

    I voted for two, but actually it's 2.5, including some touch ups. Scented candles? Not a bad idea. I'll try that eventually.

    3 for me. But no candles. Music yeah, but candles no. I am clumsy enough, no need to add fire into the equation.

    Three passes minus the candles and music, although
    I would like to add tunes to the repertoire.

    It usually takes me three passes plus a touch up pass on two spots that almost need a sander, and it doesn't matter which blade I use.

    Like CatMan, I need 2.5 passes.

    Candles? Who needs candles. The aroma of Colleen's soaps sets the mood for shaving.

    Music? My shaving music is provided by the symphony of individual hairs being melodically cut by highly crafted German steel.


    (I better stop. I'm getting too much into this..... huh, for some reason, I feel the shave den calling me. "Resistance is futile, assimilate, resistance is futile.")

    Two passes does the trick for me on my face. One pass on my head.

    I'm also a 2.5 pass guy.I wouldn't be able to hear the music over my three boys arguing anyway.
