Why hasnt there been a lotion invented that makes it so I don't have to shave?

Safety razors FTW! mach3, etc are such pieces of crud to use. A good razor will cost upfront, but blades are like $2. I hated shaving until I started using them.

If you are totally adverse to shaving, go to Asia and get amazingly cheap IPL over the course of a few months.

A good razor is probably the way to go anyways for upfront cost, cuz every time they come out with a new razor (ie: Gillete just came out with Proglide), the blades themselves never fit on the previous model's handle. I mean they could, but they want you to buy the whole thing each time. If you think back on how many handles you've brought for a new model of blades, you could have easily purchased a good DE or SE.
 
Shaving... sorry... what is that?

It's what we do if we don't want to end up on the no fly list :D
 
I stopped using shaving cream 99% of the time about 5 years ago. Just turn the water up in the shower to get a nice steam going and then wash my face to soften the hair a bit. I have a no fog mirror and quickly shave right in the shower.

I've had the same bottle of shaving gel for about 3 years now, someone gave it to me. I use it every now and then because I don't feel like wasting it.
This ^^^ is why I like this forum. There are some great individualists.
 
I've always thought that doing this would increase my chances of receiving a rusty (or not rusty) trombone...

if anyone does try this, be sure to not fart in the shower, or even in any small room, directly after completing. It will smell like rotten cucumbers. This smell is VERY intriguing, but people lacking my adventurous curiosity might not like it.
 
It's a conspiracy by the government and the shaving cream industry to make you register for the draft.
 
Go beard.

Every Thurssday, I trim down to #1 on my clippers (sometimes between #1 and #2)., and then let it grow out.

About three times a week, all I have to do is use a razor to clean up around the cheeks and neck. Total time investment is probably 15 minutes a week.
 
I use a new Mach 3 Turbo blade every other shave, which comes to about $1 per shave...sux! I hate shaving to begin with, but I am a hairy dude, thanks Dad! So those 'real blades' actually do the trick? I thought about getting one, but am still hesitant.
 
Christ, I can shave in the morning and have a 5 o'clock shadow by noon. I don't mind shaving my face, but I'm seriously thinking about getting the laser shit done on my shoulders and back. That hair drives me fucking nuts and I hate shaving it once a week. My wife waxed my back one time, and it hurt like hell. I quit after like 4 strips. Felt like Steve Carell in 40 Year Old Virgin. A lotion that made it so you didn't need to shave for a couple weeks would be nice. Someone should get working on that.
 
I have to be absolutely meticulous about my razor or I get razorbumps. Only use any disposable razor once, shave every day (minus goatee), use electric razor on face, shaving cream, aftershave, lotion...

Shave everyday, I was called babyface by a bartender yesterday, so I guess it's working. ;)

I went to a high school where you could not have facial hair.
A friend of mind kept getting reprimanded for not shaving.
He kept telling the teachers that he shaved every morning but the hair freaking grew back.

So one morning he goes over to the disciplinarians office and he shaves in front like 5 people to verify.

The kid comes back in at lunch time and looks like he has 3 days of growth on his face.

Sr year after we finished classes, we had a 2 week wait before graduation. The kid walks in for graduation and he literally looks like this guy.

He said he started shaving in the 6th grade.

CONSEQUENCES WILL NEVER BE THE SAME
 
I've never used shaving cream either. Before I shower, I shave downwards and then go back and shave upwards. No cuts, very smooth, and takes only a minute.
 
I shave in the shower with a no fog mirror and some shampoo I scrape off my head. Works fine and I'm a hairy guy.
