Thread: Shaving areas aside from one's face

So I shaved my chest the other day with a straight for the first time, and I must say that the nipple area was more intimidating than my first against the grain attempt on my throat lol. Anyone else shave other areas of their bodies with a straight?

Not intentionally

The thing to do with the chest is to mask it up with gaffa tape first. Cut out two nipple-shaped bits of gaffa tape, stick them on, and shave away. Works a treat.

My right fore-arm ends up pretty clean-shaven, as I'm trying to learn to hone. I hone a bit, test a bit, hone a bit, test a bit, and before I know it I've run out of arm hair. I hope I don't end up with some kind of thick stubbly arm-beard. :/

Sorry I like my mane. After removing it for a Halloween costume and the subsequient weeks of feeling cold constantly I do not think it will ever be removing it intentially ever again.

Now that is funny!

Yeah I have..... cut the time tremendously from using a regular 3-5 blade razor after months of not shaving! Now just getting the fine tuning down on the "not so smooth" area!

And remember to post Pictures.

I always give my shoulders a pass or two while shaving! Shoulder beards are not cool
