He sure does. I mean Rob, just look at the ATG pass on the moustache area.. I can't say anything more.
Of course, sometimes I find XTG is my limit, especially as I just use one hand. Get me closer than with a DE if done right.I'm past that stage Nishy, cheers though
A good point. I've lost nearly 3 stone in the past 18 months, I never really thought of myself as "chubby" before but now my cheek bones are more defined and shaving that area can now be a real PITA... Solution is obvious I suppose, grow longer sideburns.re technique: with a baby face like in the video shaving is easy but with a face like Keith Richards...
I remembered now some YouTube videos where many wet shavers, begin the shave with almost BBS face and use Feather.A good point.

Shaving was so much easier before when the whole face was just a gentle curve
I often marvel at people posting a fresh SOTD every day using a straight razor... Perhaps their stubble grows much faster than mine but for me the minimum is 2 days growth, preferably 3 to use a straight.I remembered now some YouTube videos where many wet shavers, begin the shave with almost BBS face and use Feather.
To cut what exactly??
I am sure people's whiskers grow at different rates. I do shave daily with a straight razor, 4 passes worth, and by next morning I do need a shave. Other possibility is that I am not very good at shaving with a straight razor. Oth the same is true if I use a Gillette Fat Boy @ 9.I often marvel at people posting a fresh SOTD every day using a straight razor...

Seems unlikely to me! The fact you use a FB at 9 tells me you have heavy growth Bob. My own growth has increased a lot since I began using DE's and SR's... Whether that is down to me shaving more often I don't know. Back in my cartridge days I only need to shave once or twice a week at most whereas now I do need one every day, I just find straights don't work very well on short stubble but that could be down to my own lack of technique.Other possibility is that I am not very good at shaving with a straight razor.

Bob
Or they shave with a straight after they have just shaved secretly with their Fusion just to show that they have mastered the technique.Seems unlikely to me!

I think lots of people shaving with a straight every day are actually just trimming their beard line rather than doing a full face shave so that was an incorrect assumption on my part.
