serious post:

i use a trimmer these days because im too lazy to do the razor thing anymore…

but i go to the barbor downtown ALOT and always get a legit ass beard trim and shave with a coat throat…

i’ve been doing this for years, but now it seems like it hurts like fucking hell and its so tough to shave with the coat throat blade now, I guess its cuz my hair is thicker but holly fuck man it feels like its ripping my skin the fuck open…

i never used to get cut or irratated either, but now its like i get cut a few times every time, no matter who is doing it… whatever cream or water they use doesnt make any difference… i dont bother sayin shit cuz i dont want to look like a bitch but it seems like everytime i go for a shave it hurts more and more…

what the fuck ? my cousion said maybe its because of thicker hair and the fact that skin now itches more is because its taking off layes of skin with that blade…

i dont know how true that is but i remember getting shaves way back even in india without a problem, smooth as hell… my mustache is nearly unbearable !

i dont get razor burn bumps tho ever

wtf???

The cheap ones seem to work just fine for me. Ive cut myself a few times but Ive also cut myself with more expensive ones.  
The bleeding usually stops in a few minutes so its ok.

> I’ve always used Gillette products for whatever reason, marketing probably. Anyway, I got a Shick Hydro 5 for free as part of an online order the other day…AMAZING. Blows away the Gillette Fusion, no comparison. Much smoother shaving experience. Refills are over 50 percent cheaper too!!!

Ive been using the fusion and actually the other day I was looking for a new one…ill have to check this one out!

Shaves real nice, but still nicked my neck a bit. Every razor with 5 blades does it to some extent. I’ll try it a few more times though. The flip up part for trimming is awesome.

I’ve actually been nicked less than I was with my Mach 3.
