Men who shave... (lemm.ee)

How often do you shave? How long does it take you? How do you do it?

Just curious as it feels like a chore for me. I usually do a with the grain shave with a safety razor and no product since I don’t have a lot of time and that gives the least irritation, but it’s not a close shave. I see guys that get stupid close shaves and I often wonder how much time they spend on it.

I shave my neck and my checks around my beard. I do it in the shower with a shaving cream and a safety razor. It takes less than a minute.

I worked with a complete asshole who would go out of his way to be a huge dick to me. If there was a weakness, he'd exploit it.

One day, he privately pulled me aside and touched my neck and cheek area, said, "You should shave here and here. Tighten it up. Makes you look more presentable."

No joke. No mockery. Just a heads up from the biggest asshole I ever met. And he was right. That was twenty years ago, and I think about that every time I shave there.
