    I need to have a nice shave for work each day, but I'm a single Dad. One pass WTG, seven minutes start to finish, including clean-up, and I'm set.

    Last week I had the flu and was home sick. One thing I did to pass the time was to shave BBS each day. Very luxurious.

    Default BBS is just what the Dr. Ordered!!

    Lets face it Gents, places like SRP, B+B ect are were fellows like us,[OCD types] go to face our compulsions with dignaty and verve. Yes, BBS does rule in my lu, and I admit, even after my three main pass's I rinse off with hot water and do touch up's as needed to get that BBS shave I started and was promised when I took up wet shaving as a hobby!! Let face it, after all the stropping and face scrubbing lather wipping hot towel applying, it just doesn't bloody well take all that long to do some extra pass's to, well, feel like a million dollers in the morn. The whole process IS the Zen of str8 shaving and IMHO is what makes it all worth the effort. That's my ruddy two cents, hope it was worth the time for 'ya'all to read it.

    And to all, have a great BBS every time!!!!

    And Humbly, as alway's, I still am,

    Tinkersd of SRP!

    If you shave right you will get bbs every shave.
    Try not to get bbs every time ,try use straight razor shaving technique right everytime .Results always will be BBS.

    I am also one of those that do not go against the grain as no matter how sharp the razor is my face does not like it and although I do end up with a BBS it looks as thoe the matron smaked it a hundred times lol!

    With WTG + ATG + XTG I acheive BBS about 8 out of 10 times. I really don't stress out about it, there's always tomorrow.

    jant,

    I'm in total agreement with everyone else here, of course I do a BBS every day. Is there any other reason to shave? Although, I am, from time to time, surprised at just how rough that little baby's butt can be.

    Yep, BBS every time I shave. I love the feel of it and this type of shave lasts 48 hours. WTG/XTG/ATG. BBS - there is no substitute.

    I guess I am too anal to give up the bbs obsession. I can go wtg only but am bugged all day if I do. Also, I think it is noticable if I go wtg only.
