BBS, what is your definition?

As the oldest of six kids and who was often the babysitter BBS carries an entirely different and somewhat odoriferous connotation and is not anything I desire.

I far prefer to think in terms of PDG, OK and NDG.

Lots of interesting thoughts to this topic :)

I went this way of shaving for mainly two reasons:
One: I wanted better results and a better feeling on my skin.
Two: I wanted to get away from all this industrial and chemical plastic and canned rubbish, to items that last longer and work better and feel better in using them.

I admit, stopping to be obsessed with the idea of a perfect smooth skin after shaving for ten or more hours, has been a learning process. Still, this way I perfectioned my technique a lot. :wink:

Today, I know: I can reach a very smooth face for around 7 to 10 hours after shaving (even when it isn't necessary or possible to do so every day), but on my lower neck, more than a decent shave isn't possible (without the risk of nicks, weepers and strong razor burn and a quite uncomfortable shave).
And this is ok for me :)

And it is nice to know, that bbs (yes, maybe, there should be a better name/acronym for this) isn't something most people are easily getting or even striving for every day. :)

BBS: Baby Butt Smooth

Does a baby's ass have any residual stubble, in any direction? Neither does the face or neck after a true BBS shave.

It's that simple.

Neither does a billiard ball, with the added advantage a billiard ball does not have any irritant diaper dermatitis.

It’s achieved when I can trace my fingers across the area of my face and neck and not feel any stubble. But the term does bring a smile to my face, as when I smoked a pipe one tobacco I liked in particular was Baby’s Bottom. The slogan on the lid of the tin read, ‘Nothing Smoother Than Baby’s Bottom’. In the world of fountain pens it has another meaning to describe the condition of a nib where the tines don’t entirely meet the writing surface causing the pen to skip. Not a good condition and not the easiest thing to fix.
