I prefer to just not shave to close, bumping out is inevitable it appears so instead, I get just
close enough.

I’m out the country and forgot my T Liners so I went to a barberia and the brehito used a straight razor :sadcam:

I’m just afraid I’ll bump up, I’ve never used a razor on my face in my life :mjcry:

I just use the electric razor.

Not as close but it's not as much of an issue when you're dark skinned. People can't tell unless they're feeling your face. Mostly just keep a beard.

Straight razor if done right by the barber though.... :blessed: . Need an old school breh with the leather strap.

I use a straight edge on my face for beard and mustache.

My process
1. Wash face.
2. Apply shave oil.
3. Apply sensitive shave cream.
4. Take my time, shave & line up beard/mustache.
5. Wash excess shave cream with warm water.
6. Apply aftershave balm.
7. Shower or wash face with face wash.
8. Use Face Lotion or Vitamin E cream.

Never rush or talk to anyone while using a straight razor.

Magic Shave? Oh brother

I actually got written up in a work release spot where I finished my time over this bullshyt. They made you shave over there and I was like y’all got me fukked up. They tried to make me cut my hair and shave for like a week and I was bucking on them folks. But then they came to me and tried to threaten me when sending me back and all kind of shyt, so I cut my hair. But I refused to shave. I told them I don’t put razors on my face so fukk that shyt. They had different COs try to come talk to me and I was telling all them nikkas I’m not shaving. So this one bytch as CO came to me with a thing of magic shave, which was pretty popular in there. I was like you got me fukked up, I’m not putting that shyt on my face. That shyt ain’t natural. shyt burning the hair off your face, hell naw. He was heated :mjlol: and starting getting mad and telling me I was gonna shave or else. So they sent me to the lil captains office or whatever the fukk that shyt was called. While I’m waiting, a nurse hear what’s going on and tell me I can get a medical note where I don’t have to shave and she gave me one a few days later and I was good:mjlol:

I have to let it be known for my brehs and keep it real.

I'm no longer straight razor gang. I'm bevel gang now. :sadcam: I know a lot of you brehs were hoping I stayed the course and I know the haters wanted my face to look like sand paper but I did have to make the switch. Not because of bumps just that once I tried the bevel I was like this is my new shyt now. Only issue I had with the straight is getting cuts when I would rush a bit. You can't rush that shyt and you have to pay attention otherwise you're going to become scarface, literally.

If you travel overseas, just let your hair grow out.
I cringe at the site of straight razors, or Bics, or anything other than Andis/Wahl trimmers,
