is it just me, but do you ever run your hand over your face in the afternoon and thought to yourself.......'will I have a second shave today?'........should I be worried?.......
Canuck said:Occasionally. When I used cartridges my face wouldn't stand up to a second shave and it would get sore if I tried... I'm one of those people with a blue shadow by mid day so I've often fancied the idea, now with better shaves and more care of the skin, my face will accept another later on. I only do it if there's a reason though, dinner out or something like that. Otherwise I leave it so there's more to "get hold of" the next morning.
Should you be worried? Nah. Try it if you like, I know a few people here that do two shaves a day fairly regularly. I think Jon Hall does it a lot, he's another bluebeard. Just see how you get on, but back off if it's getting sensitive, and I wouldn't be doing ATG or 3 passes or any of that hardcore stuff twice a day. Comfort only.

I must admit though that since DE shaving I do look forward to the morning shave. I really like the routine and taking the effort. Being truthful to myself, before all this I just grabbed a cartridge and hacked away.
Now I have creams, balms and colognes. Use a face scrub twice a week and moisturise. Wife thinks I've found my feminine side or that it's part of my midlife crisis!
Hmmm. My names Geoff and I'm a DE shave adict.
