The Secret to a BBS neck!!!

it's awesome to figure something new out isn't it?
Of course I consciously try it this morning and nick myself like crazy. Echh. But it's still better than stretching the skin out...that'd be a massacre.
Thank you for that. Whilst I had thought not to stretch my skin I was always too nervous of the consequences.I didn't exactly squish my neck I just didn't stretch it. I tired not to move it from it's natural position.
The result, a perfect BBS shave through two WTG passes. No irritation, no cuts or nicks.
Now as I head off to the shower lets hope it wasn't a one off.
Wish someone would "chin"
him but I suppose thats a topic for an English barbershop ! Lance
Nice-- will try-- thanks!
I am a little worried about catching skin in the process-- one of the reasons we stretch the skin tight is to prevent it from getting caught and nicked by the razor. May I ask what your prep is?

My prep is no different than the rest of my face... or everyone else.
I guess what I mean is that I don't do anything special to prep for doing it this way.
I shave after I shower, whip up some nancy boy, and shave.
Kevin, I also was stretching the skin there on my neck and getting worse irritation, so I left out the stretching and dropped my chin slightly. Worked great! Better in even the worst areas on my neck than I have gotten in some time now. Thanks!
I'll be trying this on Thanksgiving Morning. It has always been a problem area for me as well but I've always stretched the skin. Never thought of trying the inverse.
