I'm certain there must be some unwritten law stating that a person can shave with carefree abandon and a BBS shave is the result when there is nothing special going on. HOWEVER, should there be a time when you really want the best and smoothest shave possible, a bloody butcher job is usually the result. Should that law be placed in the Wiki? All this firmly tongue-in-cheek, of course, but doesn't it seem like it is nearly inevitable, like back in high school and zits just before the big date?
like a type of Murphy's law... you do well until you are trying to do well... then, epic fail and a bloody mess?

Kind of like when I first started doing ironwork and had to learn to walk the I-beams. I was nervous as a whore in church and would look straight down at my feet as I took a step. An old timer told me to look 6 to 8 feet ahead of where my feet were, He said,"Your feet will take care of themselves". and sure enough they did. I got so good at it that they nicknamed me "Cat" because of the way I got around on the iron...... and no.... it wasn't on all fours. :)Quote:

Hats off man. Now back to the thread.
I've always thought that the harder it is to stop the bleeding, the more important the event that you are just about to attend.
Also: The worse the cut, the greater the chances my wife will need to come into the bathroom.
"I swear, this hardly EVER happens, it's just this razor has this point at the hee...I'm not used to it."
"ANOTHER new razor"
"Uh, no, it's uh, really old, I just hardly ever use this old thing anymore."
I've been waiting for an excuse! Maybe if I'm really spurting she will never notice one of these! :w

+1 , I couldnt do that no matter how much you paid me.:eek:Quote:

I just shave, I dont have any set way yet. I just do what I want. Sometimes I do the right side first them my neck on the same side. Other times I do left and right cheeks and chin then neck last. Sometimes I use only my left hand to shave and other times I use left hand on left side and right hand on right side. Im not overly cautious but I do keep an eye on my blade angle, so far I have gotten one very small nick on my chin in about 30 shaves.
Doesn't work that way for me, but then I have always been resistant to performance stress.
I was thinking the exact same!Quote:

I noticed it because I do wallclimbing. Most of the time, safety equipment isn't actually needed, and makes you less careful.Quote:
