Has anyone ever shaved against the grain on their upper lip and NOT get a cut. I’m always really proud of myself when I pull that one off.

Yeah I shave against the grain on my upper lip pretty much every day. No issues. No irritation or cuts. I just pay close attention to my angle.Has anyone ever shaved against the grain on their upper lip and NOT get a cut. I’m always really proud of myself when I pull that one off.

Aren't you the fellow that is serving me in the military? You don't have a choice about shaving, do you? Ugh. That's my toughest place to shave.Based on the responses, I’m obviously doing it wrong. Back to the drawing board.

Same. I do it like a chipmunk nibbling on an acorn ... wee tiny bites. Rarely do I have a straight edge that will do it easily; no problem usually with a sharp DE or AC blade as long as I keep the angle very very shallow (literally ride the cap), third pass after WTG/AGT.I do it most days but more in the buffing style. I do take my time and go easy though.

What razor do you use? I only advise trying it with razor that has a "rigid design". If you have a chatterbox you should expect irritation.
I use a variety of vintage Gillette razors but I probably use an early 40s Tech a plurality of the time.

As a DE user, I tried it, and more or less got away with it most of the time, but it wasn't relaxing.Has anyone ever shaved against the grain on their upper lip and NOT get a cut. I’m always really proud of myself when I pull that one off.

That's a nice razor to attempt it with. Do you absolutely HAVE to shave ATG because of your service?I use a variety of vintage Gillette razors but I probably use an early 40s Tech a plurality of the time.
