Trim with a pair of clippers.
I like my jaw too much for it to be invisible under hair but a clean shave makes blemishes so much more apparent.

Is there much of a learning curve switching from a cartridge razor to a safety razor, and do I really need to do a whole routine or can I just lather on some Barbasol and go at it if in a rush?
>>11114173
Cartridge, in the shower, with a fog-free mirror.
I honestly don't see the effort in using older tech being worth the results.

Not at all, took me about 3 shaves to get it right but the first one was still miles better than using cartridge. It depends on your face too. Get real shaving cream that's not from a compressed can and it will last you months. Now I look forward to shaving instead of dreading it.
For body shaving, I still prefer cartridge though since it's much safer.
I use a safety razor and shaving soap that I bought from art of shaving. Should I cop the stand for my brush and razor?

The stand is a nice way to avoid clutter in your bathroom; I definitely recommend it.

Double edge. Currently using cartridge on vacation and it sucks. So much irritation.
I use my Grandpa's Gillette Fatboy, bodyshop Maca root shaving cream and a cheap boar hair brush
Safety razor with a good, really sharp blade is the best shaving experience I've had.

your pic related exactly with AoS lavender cream
It's funny, ever since I switched from shitty disposables to a double edge I've only get cuts like once in a year at the most despite how they're supposedly sharper
Cartridge for face
Disposable for crotch

Merkur Futur with Feather blades, Italian soap for that good stank and an Omega badger brush.
I use a shaver to shave

Feather blades are the fucking best
do you guys dry your razor after use? wouldn't that hanger just allow the water to make a puddle on the counter?
>>11116148
I open it up and rinse it to make sure all the hair and soap is out then give it a few hard shakes
>>11115868
You can make a stand really easily from a wire coathanger.

Nah, I use the same blade 3-4 shaves so dismantling it to dry it off every time would be a pain. I just shake it off and hang it up.
>wouldn't that hanger just allow the water to make a puddle on the counter?
So what, it's a bathroom counter, it's waterproof, that's what it's for.
tried out de shaving back in uni, so ok i could save $10 a month, but the extra time spent in the bathroom made me feel a woman
was also the last time i followed an internet trend
there's a reason why handles from the likes of truefitt hill and drharris are mostly for cartridge
I use a DE razor with Wilkinson Swords. It works fairly well. What shaving cream or gel does everyone use? Pic related is the best stuff from a can that I've found.
