Anyone use magic shave?

[Balla]

idk if I’m using this the wrong way, but I leave that shyt on for like 6 minutes and use a wash rag to take it off. Only a few hairs came off.

I got the cream, not the powder.

Should I use like a butter knife instead of wash rag, or leave the stuff on longer than the recommended 7 minutes?

Check youtube.

I bought that shyt back in the day. It worked. I scrapped it off with some sort of plastic applicator. You could use an old debit card or something too.

I bought magic shave and another brand to see if they worked. They did.

I wonder if they will work on the scalp. I want to try bald. I still have my magic shave shyt but its over 6 years old, probably dried out or don't work.

They actually have one for your head, it’s a gold color one.

What do you think about using nair on your face? Someone said it worked for them.

Are yall getting the rag damp before wiping it off?


The plastic applicator I used, I basically used it exactly as I would a razor, except it wasn't sharp. I put the shyt on, after the time. I damped my face with a towel, then used the plastic applicator to scrap the rest off.

When I used that shyt I'd use the plastic shyt to scrape it off. It worked pretty well. Just hated the mess and the smell.

Got the andis joint and started clipping my shyt. I get low enough.

Yeah but I didnt use a plastic applicator I got a bottle that's it no "plastic applicator"

The applicator wasn't necessary. It didn't even come with the magic shave, I think it came with the other shyt I bought which is the same as magic shave just a different brand.

The applicator was a piece of cardboard or maybe thin plastic, I guess to assist in spreading it on if you didn't want to get your fingers messy.

Like I said I put it on, waited, got my face wet then basically pretended I was shaving with the thing and the hair came off. Just a damp towel woulda been fine

There was a big thread on sohh about it, this was probably a decade ago. It's #BlackBeardGang for life now.

How long do you leave it on for, they said not to go past 7 min, but I heard some people went for like 12 minutes.

I followed the time on the bottle. Didn't do anything extra.

I could've just wiped it all off with a damp towel, which I ended up doing anyway. The first 2-3 times I used it, I was wetting my face then scraping it off like I was shaving .

shyt funky as hell. Used it once years ago

Idk wtf I did wrong, I don’t have much facial hair and I saw some YouTube vids and they had thick beards and that shyt came off easy.

I used a wet wash rag too, imma try to use it longer and use a card or something.

It did take some hair off, but some didn’t budge at all.

Kinda pissed it took me so long to use it because I break out a lot when shaving, so I use clippers, but I want a closer shave and they said magic shave can do that.

I get the red bottle extra strength and leave it on for ten minutes. i get in the shower and use a butter knife to scrape that shyt off. All the excess cream i just use water and scrub with a rag until my face and head is clear. #baldnhandsomegang

Been using it almost 30 years and when I hear peeps complaining about it not taking all the hair off, it's usually because they're using the wrong strength.....

1. White/Blue is for Light hair
2. Gold/Black is for Regular hair
3. White/Red is for Coarse hair

I normally use the Gold/Black can every 3 days. I use a butter knife to mix the powder and then to take the mix off my face. I prefer the powder over the pre-mixed cream because it's just stronger even though the pre-mixes come in the same strengths as the cans.....and the cans have more product in them for a lower price. I don't normally notice the smell anymore unless I don't shave for about a week and then use the Red/White can. I also leave it on for about 10 minutes. You want the mix to be more liquid than solid so it gets down to the skin, more like pancake batter than toothpaste if that makes sense.

I prefer the knife to apply/remove it so I can actually sculpt my beard/moustache/sideburns like I just came from the barber and got lined-up.

EDIT: Whatever you do, do NOT use this after you've already washed your face or have been sweating heavily.....unless you like your face feeling like you washed it with sandpaper.

EDIT: It is PERFECTLY safe to use on your pubes. Don't ask me how I know...........​

I got the red one, I’ll try for 10 minutes. You think a card is as good as a butter knife??
