Thread: Im Back

    Default Im Back

    Well I took some of the advice given to me and decided to let my facial hair grow out for a bit. Iv waited about a week now. Its 1:30 in the morning and I cant sleep. The itch from the hair and the sensitivity is making it hard to sleep so i decided to shave it off. I used Edge Shave Gel Sensitive and my DE with Astra SP. I got a clean shave more or less on the cheeks but the throat area is where the difficulty came in. I wasnt able to shave it all completely off because the sensitivity of my neck area. But after shaving down most of it the pain has actually stopped. I applied some peroxide and a bit of ointment to help heal my neck. I plan to shave off the remaining bit s of stubble in the morning. So far so good, cheers.

    Welcome back, Jerrel. If you dont mind me asking, why are you using shave gel and not soaps or creams? Thats 70% of the fun!

    Im using shaving gel because its the best thing that works for my face. Iv tryed many soaps and creams and they all leave me with horrible razor bumps and skin irritation.

    Use what works for you, but the soap has improved my complexion a lot!
