I love the advice of skipping days between shaves. Wish I could do it. But the job requires me to shave every day. I have found that no matter what, my chin will always be an area of trouble. I have tried the new fangled razors, straights, safeties, every possible combination of the three. I have gone through just about every combination of shaving soaps and oils and aftershaves that I can afford and think of. I have tried WTG only, WTG + ATG, WTG + XTG. I keep having some ingrown hairs and infected hair follicles. I have had the razors sent off and honed, I have swapped safety blades after 1 or two shaves. None of it seems to work. I only get to shave with a straight once or twice a month now due to time constraints.
