shaving...

[zerioustt]

what kind of shaving creme does everyone use?

while back i ran out of shaving creme(gillette) so i used hair conditioner. let me tell you it was the best shave i have ever had. i have sensitive skin and it def made a huge difference. so now im saving money and getting a better shave!

I think i might go try this right now...

I have really curly hair and my neck is so senitive...my neck gets so ****ed up when I shave.

I've tried everything and nothing works. I don't know that I've tried conditioner though.

A lot of people suggest a badger hair shaving brush and straight razor...bbut they are expensive as **** too.

I use Gillette "Foamy" Sensitive Skin. Works great, doesn't irritate my skin.

Trying the conditioner method in 10 minutes...

I usually use Gillette. I have sensitive skin too, so maybe I'll try my conditioner.

i don't often shave... i normally trim my entire face with the mustache trimmer of my electric shaver... I look young enough, and it only gets worse when I shave with a razor

I do that sometimes as well. Honestly I just hate shaving though. You'll see me cleanly shaven once a week tops. My Boss yells at me all the time but what can I do?

I'd rather have some scruff than my neck look like it got attacked by a beaver.

i shave with whatever shaving cream pearl leaves in the bathroom.

i have very sensitive skin too. I use the gillette gel sometimes, as well as Barbasol. Barbasol has soothing aloe and skin conditioner shaving creams which don't irritate my skin as much. As a businessman i shave pretty much every day, so my skin gets irritated easily. I shave at 7am and I have full face/neck of stubble by bedtime that night.

When I run out, I'm also guilty of using my fiancee's girly "silk" shaving stuff..which isn't bad either. lol

I'm going to have to try the hair conditioner trick.

I use gillette and a mach 3 turbo and shave everyday. My face is very sensitive and I have recently tried the fusion power, what a POS compared to the mach 3 turbo. It doesn't work for me, my hair is course so I only clog it up faster.

I will try conditioner but I doubt it will do anything to help the damage and bleeding, I bleed every time I shave especially from my neck. But a good aloe aftershave takes care of that. It took me forever to find a combo that works and the Mach 3 is the only solution with Gillette sensitive skin gel.

When I was in the Marines and HAD to shave every day if I didn't use an electric, I would use Gilette Gel. Now, I rock the beard and very very VERY rarely do a full shave (I think that has happened 4 times since 2004) BUT when trimming I use no cream. I just shave right after the shower.

I use the new gillette fusion, that is the best blade I have ever used. I also use the gillette soft skin gel, and it works...but its not the best. I'm really curious about this hair conditioner one.

Gilette shaving gel...however I just ran out and I might just use hair conditioner....

[den9]

i use to shave every other day cuz i feel dirty if i dont, now i do it every 4 days about, but the shorter it is, the easier is to shave. i hate when the razor pulls the hair.

i usually use a norelco dry shaver then hop in the shower and finish up my neck and all the spots i missed with a disposable razor.

the closest shave i ever got was with a wet norelco in the shower with nivea or gillette gel, i did a side by side comparism with a mach 3.

once a week, max. I get really scrappy around day 5-6 and it looks really unprofessional in the office i work in, but I really don't care. I hate shaving and like facial hair. I use the cheap target gel because i stole it from one of my housemates. Once school starts, I'm going with the ugliest facial hair possible, the neck beard. It's my last chance to get to have ridiculous facial hair so i'm going for it.

Gillete Fusion Phantom, and the Hydragel. Personally, I think its awesome. But when I have to remove the goatee, I gotta use my electric first to mow it down, then use the normal razor over that.

[zerioustt]

One thing people do wrong is go against the grain when shaving. For me I shave the old neck beard down and everything else I go up.

[Spocknasty]

**** I forgot to try it.

I've used conditioner many times, and I agree, it works great. Granted, I'm not shaving my face, but it works. I use the $0.97 **** when I use conditioner to shave, though. No way am I using my $7.00 John Frieda conditioner on my legs.
