Well I shaved it all off finally with that fusion gilette I mentioned. That took forever. Being clean shaven makes me feel years younger. But I can feel my mustache already coming back. Always was a quick grower.

My new Gillette Fusion ProGlide is incredibly smooth.

Last night I used it to shave my wife's "privates". It did such a great job that I got 2/3 of it done before she woke up!

J/k. She never woke up.

being there is 1/3 left I'm guessing it's a landing strip?

Dang, you folks really take this seriously. Cool! Good for you. I have a closely trimmed beard (1/4" max), that I keep that way with a Wahl electric trimmer. I shave my neck using Barbasol and a cheap twin blade throw away. Yes, I know, I'm a heathen, lol.

So my first shave with it today. I always shower first and soak my neck. It was way less complicated than I thought it would be, I had to keep checking to make sure I was even shaving the hair off. Which was weird, it felt like there was much less resistance. I will never shave with anything else.

Nice. I agree, once I did my first DE shave I wondered why I never used this before.

The blades came with the razor. I will have to order some new ones on Amazon. The razors are Dorco. Any suggestions on blades?

I'm not a fan of the Feather blades...don't work well on my skin/hair.

I like the Astra blades so far the best. Shave once w/ the grain the across the grain for a baby butt smooth face. I love my DE shave and will never go back.
