What are all the levels of stubble? We all know BBS, however I think there are levels of smooth; not just stubble and BBS. What are the levels of stubble?:thumbup:

From the Wiki:

SAS - Socially Acceptable Shave; see also BBS, DFS, and CCS

CCS - Close, comfortable shave. Perhaps a notch less than a DFS. (see also BBS, DFS, and SAS)

DFS - Damn Fine Shave. A near-BBS. (see BBS, CCS)
 
Seems like it could be graded like sandpaper abrasives. I think I got a 600 grit on my face right now!

To me that SAS, BBS, DFS, and CCS are visual grades and not how it feels to the hand. Especially since there isn't any mention of feel in the definitions.

sharp and precievable, can probably be called "shadow" on most people.
abrasive
then suddenly soft
