I did not get any pics but today's shave resulted in 6 nicks today was not very pleasant. I guess I was not as focused today because I had a fresh shark super chrome in my shavette. Still had stubble, chafed all over, and all the nicks did not fully close up after using a styptic stick and an alum block.

Not all that impressive now but I found out why the guillotine cutting style is such called. Didn't realise till i saw the blood.
No pics as I'm too lazy but I cut my thumb so bad today when it slipped and got done on the heel of the blade I had to super glue it closed as it wouldn't stop bleeding. I continued the shave though and manged my first full face shave shave with a straight and even manged BBS cheeks so a mixed bag today lol
this way me a while ago

WHAT DOES SWMBO STAND FOR MY FRIEND ?
LOL , YEAH GOOD ONE.
Fer sure, I am not going to follow this thread. I feel faint already.
best off the week
About 5 minutes later than I really should have been - should have gone back to the cartridge. About twice as tired as I am normally - should have used cartridge. Radio was on - should have turned it off. Shavette blade was three shaves old - should have changed it. Mind was clearly not in the right place, even whilst lathering - should have reached for the cartridge. Result - inch long scratch right in the middle of my right cheek with a nice chunk in the middle from the point of the disposable blade. 7 shaves in, first proper cut - reminder that I am still at the start of this learning curve.
Mark
it shouldnt matter if the blade has been used 3 time.
makesure blade is secure in shavvee before you start. i know with mine the blade is slips on one side a little.
Checked my blade - it's in straight. Can't blame the tools unfortunately. 'Twas me, purely me! :(
The Red Imp is a little devil but man can she shave. I should have been watching that spike point though. :rofl2:

I have to say I found this thread very encouraging. Every picture is worse than my worst, except for maybe the zombie gnomes eating a flamingo which I would say is weirder than my weirdest. My worst shaving injury so far is a small cut on my index finger sustained while polishing finger prints off the chrome on a DE safety razor which still had a blade in it. Thanks for sharing everyone.
Get well soon, Mephisto;)
This is 24 hours after the fact but this thread needs a bump....

Lots of other scars also:( The day will come when you (almost) never cut yourself:)
I had a Spike point that would bite me 7 out of 10 times....not anymore.... Took that tip to the side of the 1k and no more blood letting !!,
I always catch myself with my spike just below my ear, not had a bad one yet though.
So I’m doing my second pass, going ATG on my chin, when my wife walks into the bedroom and says “O’bummer says the economy is in recovery and we don’t have to worry”.
I answer …and the next thing you know… I’m bleeding.
Great thread, that had me rolling in stitches....
....(oh dear)
I feel so worthy now.. something to contribute to this great forum.
Note to self: Self, if you are distracted. Your mind is wandering and your razor isn't gliding over your face as it should. STOP. Re-group, strop and start again. Damn, I almost cut my chin off!
