Neat stuble

I tend to shave about three times week, mostly due to my hectic schedules so have a bit of stuble between shaves which is relatively acceptable.
Any hints on acheieving neat, straight lines on the upper cheeks? The growth in this area is often uneven and makes the light beard look untidy. A few people have suggested hair threading at a salon but I'm not too keen.

I'm not sure what your asking here.
Are you saying that you want to use a process that removes some hair from your face, but not all of it, in the two or three days that occur between shaves?

If that is the case, then I'd say you'd probably just be better off shaving more often. Any process you use certainly wouldn't take longer than just a good shave.

A "neat clean line" on a few days stubble seems like the epitome of an oxymoron to me.

I like how the basics of that post are "I don't know what you're saying. Maybe shaving more will help?"

Really though, it seems you are wanting a way to shave in between the days you actually shave to achieve a neater look for your unshaven face. It just seems silly to clean up the growth of a few days that will be shaved the next day anyway.

I would suggest that you go for a short stubble/beard look permanently that you don't have to shave at all and just trim - and then clean up the neck. Same principal, only you aren't laboring over facial hair that will be shaved completely in the immediate future.

A cheek line is laborious to maintain. Generally speaking, a tidy neckline is all you really need to keep up in order to look presentable in any situation. Just free advice.

I know what you mean about the neat lines on your cheeks. I have a friend who does that from his sideburns and along his jaw line on both sides of his face. It look alright but it takes much longer than a regular shave would take. I'd have to go along with the post about just doing a regular shave more often. You won't be spending nearly as much time. :w00t: :tongue: :001_rolle

Dude I even rock the Ray Bans.

I like how Don Johnson shaved with a "Side-Burn" trimmer to keep the stubbled face look :lol:

In the spring of 1986, an electric razor became available called the Stubble Device, that allowed users to have a beard like Don Johnson's character. Initially, it was named the Miami Device by Wahl Clipper Corp., but in the end the company wanted to avoid a trademark infringement lawsuit from the show's producers and opted to change the name of the device.
