THE MOTHER OF ALL BLOG POSTS

Halo guys im back...

I know some people have waited for my next blog post for some time.

 I was too busy studying 

 (that's exactly how I study).

Anyways, my blog isn't as popular as I'd like it to be. Normally I don't care what people think...but I guess I should listen to my subscribers if I want to become a famous blogger/Pharmacist.

I've received many suggestions to show how to shape/shave my beard. And im like bro....Am I your father to teach you how to shave?

Then I realized my dad never taught me how to shave. He also hasn't given me "the talk" but that's for a different blog.....

That's when I was like...whatever I'll video tape this. I took a short clip and I found out my video skills suck. It looked something like this: 

So it turned into Selfies. (Thank you snapchat for helping me perfect my skills).

I GUESS IF U DIDNT WANT TO READ MY MUSINGS AND ONLY WANTED TO LEARN HOW TO SHAVE YOU COULD JUST START READING FROM HERE...

I'm using the "look-away" technique. I've mastered this over the years since I'm shy.

I grew my beard out for like a week (yeah I know I'm a werewolf, etc.) 

I know my beard is getting long when my mom starts saying "you look like a bum" I don't push it too far after that cuz then I'll get my ass beat.

Onto the meat of the story... This is my main trimmer.

It's meant for hair on head but safe for your face. Wahl T Trimmer.

It plugs into the wall, I suggest You find one as such. The wireless ones aren't dependable in my experience. This will give you crisp lines. It takes some practice though, so be ready to adjust if you don't use clippers much.

 this is my shaving cream. even if your face isn't sensitive, I suggest getting sensitive shaving cream.


















this is my razor. I use disposable because my face breaks out if I use the same blade twice. Even if yours doesn't, it's best to use a fresh blade. Razors arent like wine, they don't get better with age. I'm not a fan of electric razors.

When I teach my son to shave (and about multiplication) it will be with a disposable razor (and a...well I think he can teach himself about multiplication).

It only has two blades (closest thing to a single blade which gives you the best shave). Those 3 & 4 blade razors are a gimmick.













This is what you spray your clippers with after you use it. It keeps your blades clean/lubricated/and 3 other things. (5 in one, idk what the other 3 are...just buy it).

This is the brush to take out the hairs from your clippers.

 After shave (don't be an idiot and not use this).

Secondary clipper (wireless) this is only for frivolous cuts and shaping.

Anyways....now for a somewhat step-by-step.

First: Use Wahl clipper to shave off neck beard.

Ain't nobody need a neckbeard...except MY HOMEBOI:

 This is the setting I put on my clipper. How short you want ur beard is up to you. Try different lengths and see what suits you.

This is after I trimmed straight through.

Using the clippers, make an outline of the shape you want your beard to have.
BE CONFIDENT IN YOUR CUTS OR ELSE YOU WILL MESS UP..

THIS ALSO TAKES PRACTICE SO DONT BE TRYIN THIS ON YOUR WEDDING DAY..

I'm used to my clipper so I can make a curved cut like so. Don't try this your first time. Only do straight lines.










Now you are ready to use regular razor to shave..

Shave under  neck first, and along the outlines you have made. It seems simple but be careful and don't rush

Two shots of final product. 

MAJOR Notes: 

1.I used secondary trimmer to cut out under lip/chin area.

2.I used secondary trimmer to trim off the mustache hairs hanging over top lip.

3. Get your hair blended at the sideburns when you get a haircut.

4. Don't buy a cheap trimmer, I think this cost like $40.

5. BE CONFIDENT and take your time.

It's time I let one of my secrets out...

My secret weapon...

I Mess up A LOT with my beard. Nobody is perfect. When those times arise however, I use a permanent marker (or eye-liner) to "connect the dots".

Honestly, if your face looks good clean-shaven like this guy...

YOU PROBABLY SHOULD JUST CLEAN SHAVE....

Good Night.
