    I hate shaving! It is a frigging chore! That being said I hate being hairy, it feels like ants are eating my face.

    Oh woe is me

    It's a no-win situation...

    Women have it easy in comparison to those of us who have to shave our faces daily!

    I take it you wet shave. Electric razor all the way. Or laser hair removal.

    Do you get shaving rash?

    I hate shaving! I only do it once a week. I have to use a specialist routine using a bunch of expensive products which came from years of trial and error to make sure my beard of hair isn't replaced by a beard of red bumps and rashes. Sensitive skin is a pain in the butt.

    EDIT: Electric razors make it worse for me. It has to be a wet shave and the process takes around 40 minutes.

    I agree! Shaving sucks, but any time I grow a beard, it gets super-itchy! If I could stop the itch, I'd totally grow a ZZ-Top beard.

    I wish! I get not-shaving-rash.

    I hate shaving too. So I am growing a beard! I've had no itching issues at all.

    I just decided to grow a beard. It's not so bad after a while, and then you can play with it, and so can your woman! :D

    I actually quite enjoy a shave, its time to myself, and i find it quite soothing, wet shaving of course, the whole nine yards, fresh lather, straight razor etc.

    I changed from shaving gel to shaving oil last year and will never go back.

    Just a few drops of oil is enough, you can see what you are doing and you never get cuts.
    In addition you never get a shaving rash.

    Tried electric, ended up with a face like a spanked butt!

    I use a mixture of electric and standard razor. Electric first than standard after for a nice smooth finish! :D

    At least when I shave anyway. :D

    You haven't seen my legs if I don't shave them regularly - think Cousin It from the Addams Family! :)

    You could pretend that you are actually wearing a pair of moon boots. You'd have to comb it right down over your feet though. Unless you've got mega-hairy feet too?

    I'm usually bearded so it doesn't bother me, but in the past I dry shaved. When I was mucking around with mutton chops recently I wet shaved and managed not to cut myself. However, the shaving rash was awful. Sod that!

    There's a reason I have a hobbit related name...

    I like the moon boot idea though! :D

    I gave up on shaving a while ago, now I just use a beard trimmer. If I really need to shave then I'll use an electric.

    Ladies bikini waxing kit and a bottle of Jack should do the trick.

    Shaving rash? What's that?

    I generally dry shave with an electric. Recently went back to wet shaving with foam and a proper shaving brush. Wet shaving is five minutes of luxury me time. I don't feel clean (or civilised) if I haven't shaved.
