Hmmm makes me wonder.Do you suppose straight shavers on a whole are a more conscious type of folk than their cartridge counterparts whom I suspect are more just go,go,go, and damn the consequences ?

so much more fulfilling.. makes shaping a beard an art form.

well right now i have a beard it starts from the bottom of my ear and runs down my jaw line so a shave my neck and my side burns lol no hair from the bottom of my ear and up !

my beard is already getting smaller

I had a goatee for the longest time and would go a week sometimes between shaves until I started straight shaving. I kept the goatee for a bit after I started and then the urge hit me to shave my whole face even at times it makes me feel like a kid. Well after a while being clean shaven I'm bringing back the goatee because SWMBO said she'd liked it. So even though I still like the clean shave a happy wife makes a happy life, right.
