    Default Bummer Nick

    I tried tilting the blade about 45 degrees for a scything motion with a waaaaay tooo sharp blade this morning. Cut a small hunk out of my chin....its such a bummer. I have been getting the greatest smoothest shaves lately and my blades are sharper than I ever dreamed and now I do this....stupid, stupid, stupid move...I was sooooo close to shaving perfection....so for all you, sharpen the blade and forget about the scything motion, atleast by trying to angle the blade...I was soooo close. Now I don't know if I'll ever be able to shave around this hole in my chin again....should I search for my chin and frame it next to the mirror as an anti-stupid stroke reminder? Did I mention how great my shaves have been?????? DANG! BTW...I did finish the shave even though I bled enough to fill the sink. DANG, DANG, DANG! Beautiful smooth baby skin and a giant bleeding scab on my chin.... :evil: All I can do is hope it goes away in like a month! :roll:

    Keep putting Neosporin on it until it heals, even after. It will heal faster and not leave much, if any, mark in time .... and DON'T do that again :roll:

    I have done that. It seems whenever I am getting confident with my shaving the next thing I know nick city. The best is when you shave the scab off. Ohhhhh :shock:
