  1. Ask Dr. Moron: “What is the safest way to shave my face?” 🪓

    There comes a time in a young human male’s life when they may (or may not) need to shave their face. This is so the communistic horrors of big beards are staved away to ensure pure, true, glorious traditional values of uptight repression.

    Today’s specimen is struggling with how to shave his stupid face safely. Dr. Moron (unqualified, unstable, and lacking unguent) offers his sage advice below.

    How Can I Shave My Face Without Dying Horribly?

    Please note: We are not medically trained medical professionals and our "advice" is terrible. Do not follow out instructions, avoid all advice, seek actual proper medical professional support.

    Dr. Moron,

    Today I turned 18 and I decided it was about time I shave for the first time in my life. I’ve not got much of a beard tbh it only comes through in small amounts but I’m 18, so that means I’m a man now (my dad kept telling me that) so I needed to shave off the small clutter of the stuff off my face.

    I weren’t sure what to do tbh no one has ever taught me so I decided to slather my face with:

    • Soap
    • Shaving cream foam
    • Shampoo
    • Mum’s leg waxing stuff she uses
    • Toothpaste
    • Eye drops
    • Toilet Duck
    • Bonjela
    • Sudocrem
    • Tiger balm

    With that lot on my face I rubbed it in for a good 20 minutes so it formed a kind of slimy paste to let my face marinate a bit before the big shave. Dad uses one of those old fashioned cutthroat razer shaver things like you see in old movies. I got that (seemed to me the most manly thing I could use) and began slicing at my face.

    I did that for the next 10 minutes. Eventually, what with all the blood and everything, my dad had to drive me to the hospital and we finished the shave there. However, I did about 76% of my first shave all by myself!

    I’m immensely proud of that. Immensely. Even if dad keeps calling me a “fuck nut” and other swear words. Whatever. I’ve come-of-age and this is my story. For my next shave, once the stitches have healed and been removed, I’ve been instructed to just use shaving cream. I’ll do that and add some leg wax and Bonjela in as well, what do you reckon?

    Cheers,

    Derek

    Hi there, Derek. Just the shaving cream, some leg wax, and Bonjela is a good strategy. However, based on our extensive history of shaving, we can also recommend an oft-forgotten secret ingredient.

    Houmous.

    Our very own esteemed editor and unqualified neurosurgeon, Dr. Wapojif, slathers a tub of humous on his face prior to each shave. He swears by this process and believes it to be:

    “The only true form of male facial beard shaving, everything else is a sham and disgusts me to my very core.”

    Shaving implements we also recommend, as opposed to the dangerous cutthroat razor you used, include, but aren’t limited to:

    • Chainsaws
    • Hedge trimmers
    • Combine harvesters

    That’s if you really want to get that clean shave right down to the jawline for the ultimate in manly traditional values based on bizarre facial hair repression.

  2. What's your favorite shaving tool, if any? I'll go first...

    I don’t know what it’s called in English, but it’s amazing. I shave with this everywhere except downstairs. I need apply NO pressure whatsoever thanks to its own weight and thanks to the sharpness of these Japanese blades. I love it. :3 ⚔️🎌

  5. CW: Implications of blood

    In a few thousand years, they will dig up my body as part of an archaeological dig. On my right earlobe, they will find a lot of cuts of varying depth and age. This will likely produce several PhD thesis about what obscure religion might have needed regular cutting of the earlobe. Perhaps it will even spawn a yearly conference.

    But the truth will be: Even after half a year, I'm still not entirely safe with a safety razor. 🤦

    If all the head shaving / haircut guys got together and crowdfunded their goals they would have a lot more success getting people to perform their fetish

  14. I’m switching to shaving soap and am looking for a ceramic shaving mug. I’d like get something more interesting than I could find at big market capturing shopping site(s). Any suggestions on a potter or maker/crafter site I could find something? I thought I had a couple sites bookmarked but now can’t find URLs.

    Haven't been able to manscape for 3 weeks.

  19. One of the things about getting old, that was never mentioned when I was younger, is having to shave ear hair.

    It is almost becoming a daily activity, that I didn't expect.

  22. To my #european #shaving bubble: what is a good source of razor blades? I use a Henson razor, so any regular nice quality blade will do.

  24. PSA: Fuck #wilkinson #shavingsoap !! My face feels like someone used it as pincushion! Never had such a bad shave in my life. Not even when I first started out with cartridge #razors and foam from a can. I'm using a #safetyrazor and I'd say my technique isn't half bad. That soap is killing my face. But I guess that's what you get when you buy from a brand that would rather sell you their expensive canned #shaving gell.

  26. Well, after 8 years of service my trusty Edwin Jagger DE89 #SafetyRazor finally kicked it (threads in the handle stripped). Picked up a RazoRock Game Changer .68-P with the bulldog handle and first impressions, it's a great replacement (paired with Astra Platinums)! Similar mild-ish shave, good weight, great grip, solid stainless steel that should last longer than chrome plate, great price ($80 vs $50 for the DE89), and made in #Canada too! #shaving #razors #buyitforlife

  27. Please excuse me, while I smear otter on my face. #Shaving supplies arrived.

  28. If #Apple ever gets into the electric razor market… well, somebody got there first in design terms, with the MOST Apple-looking devices I think I’ve ever seen (that weren’t designed in Cupertino) : The Laifen P3 Pro and T1 Pro Electric Razors

  29. There's a shave soap I've been using for decades. I bought a case of 12 pucks back in 2020 and just finished my last one. Time to order another case. Except, turns out they discontinued it back in 2022. It's a trivial thing but I'm really going to miss it.

  30. Got up and it was grey and rather damp, had breakfast and then the sun got out. The mutt and me went out enjoyed a short slow run, I clearly eat too much yesterday, burp, as we got home it started to rain again, so good timing. Though, I'm now sitting at my desk with a half trimmed beard and head, because the "sheep shearers" broke mid shave and therefore didn't have time to finish the job and have a shower before work.

    Any recommendations for a beard and hair trimmer, I tend to let it grow for a bit, then shave head and give beard a number 2.

  31. CW: Recommendations, grooming appliances

    Hello people who shave their face
    Do you have an electric shaving thingy for your face
    Is it good?
    Would you recommend it?

    I have never shaved my face so I have no idea what's good beyond those weird meat grinder-looking shiny chrome tech ads from the 90s

    Thanks 👍

  32. After a lot of years, I decided to go back to the #shaving #soap and #brush. I hope this is more environmentally friendly than using shaving foam cans...
  33. I've started shaving with a safety razor again after a long hiatus, and it's going relatively well.

    But I'm still using an electric beard trimmer to shape my mustache. Can anyone recommend barber scissors, or another method for trimming my beard without electricity? I'd prefer a buy it for life option that could theoretically be an heirloom for my child, if I sharpen it etc.
