Thread: Someone explain this.

So I have 100+ razors and after I'm done shaving the result is pretty much a great shave and bbs on my face and some areas of my neck no matter the razor I use.

So there is this one razor and I ain't naming names here but when I finish shaving and my face is dry I can feel some very fine stubble in various areas of my face however 15 minutes later it's all gone and it's all smooth.

So who can explain that one?

That there must be the Chronik - I hear tell they attract the whiskers almost magnetically, and have a hypnotic effect on them. I would imagine what you are experiencing is just the residual whisker after-glow - takes them about 15 minutes to realise the razor is not there any more, and they recede in disappointment

No, in all seriousness, that is an intriguing result, particularly as it only occurs on this one razor. I can think of several theories, but none of them account for it only occurring with the single razor.

I'm guessing you're just not getting a very close shave with that razor. Water expands the whiskers, making them less dense and easier to cut. But it expands them in length and diameter, so you feel the stubble right after the shave but as they dry and contract they retract far enough that your face feels smooth.

This happens to me with several razors, though oddly enough not the Chronik.

Aha! you have chanced upon a Chronik Jr. which is probably rarer than the fabled Chronik itself, the shaver of ultimate closeness. You are fortunate beyond description. Buy lottery tickets now!!



apparently the cat has already escaped the bag. Why, oh why, am I so slow? Drat!!

What? Another brain teaser. Put down the Norelco.
