For those that have been on here for a while, for years I've been a fairly active member. Then it all changed. For the first time in my life, I grew a beard for No Shave November. First time in my life I've ever had more than a few days growth of facial hair. I still kept my lines trimmed, but it became utilitarian in nature. I don't think I've replaced the blade in my razor since November, and I'm still using the same soap that has been sitting on my sink. This morning I changed all of that.

I'm heading to Turks and Caicos tomorrow morning with my family for Spring Break and I decided I wanted some sun on my face. This morning I took the prison pussy off my face. If I'm breaking any rules mods, please feel free to delete this. But since it's shaving related, thought y'all might like to see before and after pics since I don't have the setup to do a video.

So, SOTD:

• Shower, Scrubby Gloves
  
• Aristocrat Junior (bought by me)
  
• Gillette Silver Blue (bought by me)
  
• Southern Witchcrafts Necromancer (bought by me)
  
• Dogclaration B5 (a secret santa gift from /u/manadyne)

It took a lot more hacking than I would have anticipated. I expect it to come off easily like the barber vids I've seen of guys having their beards taken off with a straight. Nope, lots of mini passes, lots of cleaning hair out of the blade gap, lots of relathering in the same places. However, it was really satisfying, and I'll say that I look a fair amount younger. That being said, I'll probably grow it back.

Happy shaves to all!
