AGT How often?

[Zot!]

I looked up the eshave website and found the "How to Shave" instructions and it, like other websites don't say to shave against the grain. eshave link How often do you shave against the grain?

(1) Every day (bbs is impossible without it)
(2) Every shave (I skip days shaving though)
(3) On weekends (when I have the time)
(4) On occasion (when I need to be more presentable)
(5) Never! (My face can't take it)

I would have added a poll but I haven't figured how to do it yet.

Maybe I got old alligator skin but I use 3 passes every day...............wtg,xtg,atg. Works great for me.

Almost everytime I shave, lately I've been letting things grow

 

[Must Dash]

I can't get smooth, forget BBS, without at least one plus a touch up pass ATG. Part of my everyday shave.

Adding a poll: When you start a new thread, one of the options (you'll probably have to scroll down for it) is to Post a Poll. If you select that, after you submit the thread it takes you off to a dark little room where you can put in the questions.

Everyday.

 

[Ookla The Mok]

Every single day.

My beard lays almost flat against my face. I've always had to shave ATG.

I'm with John Wayne up there...every day...BUT (and we all know this) ATG comes after SIGNIFICANT beard reduction/stubble reduction. My ATG pass is no trouble/(no stubble) at all!

(3) On weekends (when I have the time)

During the week, it's a 3 pass shave without ATG. On the weekends, Igo for the whole enchilada.

 

[ThePossum]

Everyday and with an oil pass to touch up!

 

[Lynchmeister]

Never. I've given it a few tries, but it's not for me.

As your avatar-sake states: "I can't carry a pen, I'm afraid it'll puncture my scrotum."

Is this the reason you're afraid to go ATG? We're talking about your face, here.

Now you've got me afraid to go with the grain!

+1 on every day for me as well

 

[netsurfr]

Most days.

 

[michaelskar]

Never. I've given it a few tries, but it's not for me.

+1 ...every time I try it I pay the price with ingrowns. I have been able to slowly increase the angle a little past XTG.

Everyday. My first pass is ATG on my chin and most of my neck area.
