    i haven't shaved with a razor in over three years.

    i just run the clippers over my face.
    no comb attachment and with the slider setting the blades to the shortest cut.

    same for my head when it gets too long up there.

    Used to be a beardo until I had more hair on my face than the top of my noggin. Gave it away then as I was startin to look creepy.
    Have used a Wahl clipper with No2 comb for about twenty years. Must have saved a billion bucks in barberin.

    Same here but as close as it will go. I haven't been to a barber in over 20 years. My son is 16 now and I have been cutting his hair since he was young too. At about 14 he let his hair grow out a bit and my wife decided it was time to take him to the hair dresser to get a cool fancy cut. They pulled out the clippers and trimmed him back to the same way I cut it and changed her $20:picard:

    I bought a commercial set of Wahl clippers from a hair dresser 15 years ago and they came with a small battery operated set of clippers. Been trimming my face with these since.

    Likewise, just Wahled it last night, I also have been doing my own for 20 some years. I also trimmed the beard with the #2 as it was becoming nuisance while wearing the resparator during sanding and fiberglassing the "project".

    WWW likes this one below. Faster than a blade or Norelco, easier since he his new profession does not require a close shave.

    I used my Hess 44 last night... 11/16" wide stainless steel. I use my Maggards V2 open comb to get across the grain on my neck. I am a razor snob :)

    Feather All-Stainless AS-D2. I'd been trying an Shavecraft iKon Slant DLC until tonight when I decided it just isn't working for me and went back to old faithful (the Feather). I'll be selling it off, I guess. I absolutely hate shaving but I have to keep less than 3 days of stubble or my CPAP mask starts leaking like a hurricane.

    I had a beard when it was fashionable with the local Yoopers back when I lived in Michigan's UP in the 70's and early 80's. I guess I got rid of it in the late 80's... don't miss the fuzz at all.

    Now I shave in the shower and, if I use a fresh blade every week, shaving takes less than a minute and the hot water and soapy suds means I get a clean smooth shave with zero discomfort.
