Thread: Funniest Newbie Mistakes

A year or so ago I got a Feather Artist Club. Read all the instructions and decided to use one of the Feather Pro blades. Inserted the blade, lathered up and made two passes which were exceptionally smooth, and which removed no beard. It works better if the sharp edge of the blade faces outward.

Blade buffing my chin with a straight razor after having sported a goatee there for over a year...

Forget razors, my *chin* wasn't "shave-ready" after having been left unshorn for so long... shaved it the night of the SuperBawl for Moustache Madness Monday (it's a tradition at work... grow a playoff beard, then sport the moustache)... I went in sporting the *thinnest* moustache by far, made John Waters look like Grizzly Adams (thank you, straight razor!)... fyi, I came in 2nd place overall, behind a Polish guy with a truly disturbing dirt lip/soul patch combo!

But I'm going to let the 2 deli-thin slices of skin on my chin heal over and give it another 2 weeks before I decide whether or not to grow back the goatee... my momma di'nt raise no quitter!
