I go for Wet : Normally I shave in the shower at the end when the skin is very smooth and it is quiet easy to do a close shave. You have to be carreful so not to slip! ------------- Tadpoles keep screaming in my ear "Hey there! Rotter's Club! Explain the meaning of this song and share it" |

Shaving is wet, period. beit for the facial hair , the armpit or the genitals. ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

None of the above. Permanent removal. I was tired of shaving daily after about a year. Took several laser applications to make it permanent since there is always some dormant hair. -------------  A shot of me as High Priestess of Gaia during our fall festival. Ceterum censeo principiis obsta |

Yes, and certainly one we didn't make easily. We thought about it for a long time, but we have never regretted it yet. There has not been a single hair on either of us (my wife BaldFriede and me) from head to toe for almost 5 years now; even the eyelashes are gone forever. You may say it is weird, but we like it. Some call us "Alien Twins" lol. We even considered that as name for our band first before we decided to call ourselves "Bald Angels". ------------- A shot of me as High Priestess of Gaia during our fall festival.

Hot water first to dilate skin's pores, and cold water after shave to tighten skin pores. Same when i take a shower: hot water first to wash well and end on cold water to tone up (good for heart)and avoid skin's irritation. |

| Painful? I got my foot epilated once. Not entirely by choice, mind you. It's also abominably painful to shave a beard without trimming it first... a bit of a bugger when one's in a hurry and has no trimmer! |

Curiosity once caused me to pick up a sheet of my wife's leg waxing kit, and proceed to use it on my shin... Things to bear in mind: 1 - Ladies have fine, short, girly hairs on their legs. 2 - 40 year old blokes have long, tough, wiry hairs on their legs... AAAAAGGGGHHHHH!!!!! Not recommended, unless you (a) love pain, or (b) love to see your wife in uncontrollable hysterics... Take heed. Say no to waxing. -------------  Jon Lord 1941 - 2012 |

I'm sure it's compulsory for progheads to have beards (check your instruction booklets).
Maybe, on reflection, one might make an exception for the female of the species...

Yeah those blades are a complete ripoff. A lot of places keep them behind the counter these days too...wonder why With the price of blades these days I might start using the straight razor I bought a few years ago. Got a great price on it at a close-out sale, but never really got into using it. |

Definately close. In the shower is best. My neck itches like crazy if I don't shave. I can't stand it. I still have a Lenin Goatee, though. Suits me well, I think.
