I look forward to my days off work when i can wear some nice scruffy jeans with holes in and grow a little stubble before my next shift. My boss wants me clean shaven at work ... and i HATE being clean shaven. But i like my job so i oblige them
yeah, I've completley given up on the idea of ever 'winning the battle of the razor'. I ruin disposables (it takes two new ones to take the day old stubble off), my fur is thick enough it ruins electrics (jams them and burns them out) the only thing capable I've found is a pair of barber's electric clippers (the old heavy duty ones) and while I like the feel of shaving with a straight razor...I just can't bring myself to ruin good steel by subjecting it to my beard. Not to mention, shaving is nearly pointless for me anyway, as it grows so fast...I can shave glass smooth, and within 2 hours, I have a 5 oclock shadow. by time to leave, I look as seedy as if I've been laying faceup in a gutter for a week... I haven't shaved in a month, and I have a respectable inch and a half of beard...which shocks some people when I say 'this is a month'. over where I had my goatee, (which I had for a month before) it's just over 3" long.... So either I spend a fortune to keep this under control, and let my face be solely responsible for gods only know how much environmental damage...or I can deal with a beard. Which I rather like brushing it, and honestly feel like a man, instead of a naked-faced little kid.
