Reddit. Stop grasping at straws desperately for ways to seem "masculine" just because you've had all opportunities for real masculinity taken from you, you're as bad as having a onions beard and thinking that makes you masculine
i used a safety razor for 5 years until recently, yeah its good but it doesn't fricking matter. equating your shaving kit to masculinity is fricking moronic bugman programming, literally a edward bernay 'torches of freedom' goymind psyop and weak bugmen that fail in every aspect of manhood that truly matters swallow it wholesale as oneupmanship over superior men.
The biggest redpill for me was learning that I got just as good of a shave with cartridge razors as I did with safety razors. Either way you shave, I think the most important thing is that you enjoy it.
I shave both ways now, and I enjoy them both.

yeah, i use cheap 3 blade ones from the supermarket and its the same result, in-fact i think i get less irritation now and my face feels better after, i've got one of those oneblade shavers too, really don't care about the brand or whatever but it does the job well especially on my balls. tbh, i just want the beard gone quick in the morning so i can get on and concentrate on the important shit for the day.

It's impossible unless you do laser/electrolysis, no matter how close you shave or whatever shit you use to hide it, your beard shadow is impossible to hide.

Multibladed options are terrible for your skin from a long-term POV
Less irritation with cheaper blades is only possible if you're completely incapable of handling safety razors which is really hard if you have a good model. Ever since I started using safety razors, my face feels a lot better after a shave. What I can imagine is you not using proper creams because good blades will peel off the top layer of your skin which in itself is no problem. If you shave every day and don't use proper cream, it can get complicated. Multiblades are a bit dull so in that regard, they may be more helpful for shaving without creams
I agree though that using safety razors for balls is quite hard. I unfortunately still use 3-blade plastic shit for my armpits and balls
It doesn't have anything to do with being a man but not being a dimwitted consumer. I used Wilkinsons' 3-5 blade shavers for the longest time before trying out their low-quality safety razor for 2 bucks. Turns out that plastic piece of shit of a safety razor was still miles ahead of the 3 and 5-bladed plastic razors I used before that.
Got a Merkur safety razor for Christmas, bought a 100-pack of Astra blades and palmolive cream for less than 10 bucks and never looked back. Everytime I recommended those things to my friends who would actually listen, they were happy as frick. Personally, I don't get why people would be so unwilling to try safety razors once and argue about cheaper products being better without taking their time to do practical research
Oh yeah they're the best and cheapest type of razor by a long way and I'm glad I got mine, however if you think it makes you more masculine that's when it becomes homosexualry
Obviously, the anon above was being a smug moron with the masculinity bullshit. I would however always argue that spending money for unsustainable and over-expensive materials is a dumb decision, especially when you know about an alternative
>I-I shave this way so I'm more manly.
Literally comparable to the "beer, bacon, and cigars" reddit homosexuals who have no idea what being a real man even means. I really wanna fricking kill you.
IST is about pushing your body to the limit so I want to push mine and find out if I’m able to cross dress and appear to be attractive, I’m not trans nor gay, I just want to push my visual appearance to the absolute limit and achieve this goal
Please bros. I’ve been lifting and eating my protein
I not troll. You have to get as lean as possible. Get your waist as small as possible, its attractive both for women and males. IF you suceed you will mog both men and women in maid dress.
Boomers call it a "bluebeard." if you have a thick beard, it will always be visible like that no matter how close you shave. maybe if you get real tan it'd hide it though idk.
beard shadow has more to do with the transparency of your upper skin layers and beard color rather than follicle density, beard growth rate or any of that. Getting a tan will increase skin opacity and hide the beard shadow better.
I've given up. It's a monkey's paw tier deal. >Sure, you *can* shave clean without an instant 6pm shade. >In exchange, you'll get ingrown hairs all over your face and pimples for 3 days.
try an electric razor, with electric razor pre-shave (alcohol+lubricant) and post-shave moisturizer. It wont go deep per se but you can shave multiple times per day if you need to without getting redness. If your neck has tricky geometry try getting a narrow width foil shaver and just use a feather touch. You get what you pay for with electric razors though and if you're not walling to drop $100+ on a decent one you're probably better off trying to perfect wetshaving.
time for what?
pre-shave weight 15 seconds for the alcohol to evaporate and make the hairs stand up more
shaving takes maybe 1:30 if you do it every day and are just doing a gentle once over
post shave lotion is probably another 15 seconds taking an additional 15 seconds to blot off the excess if you look greasy
I do the whole thing before my kettle gets to a boil
I didn't start getting hairs on my cheeks till my 30's lol. At 37, I'm just now starting to have decent cheek coverage. Luckily I have great goatee coverage. And yes I got my T checked and I was always 750+
As a transwoman, I would also like to know the answer to this. You can get laser treatment to remove the hair follicles but that costs money and I'm a NEET.
I am actually very happy and you are projecting. Trying to infiltrate and destroy every single thing on the internet because you know in real life no one takes you seriously and you want everyone else as unhappy as you are. Your only chance at feeling something is to end it all. Here you go:

trannies have never been accepted on IST, except that based one that was posting last year, and i guess that ozzie c**t that wanted to frick that french one was alright too...huh...you are on the most masculine/cis gay board on this site but its defs more accepting here than on say IST or something

You can try an IPL gun, they're not too expensive and mine has worked on my back. Takes months of treatment but it's easy and lasts a long time. Short term, get some orange-colored beard concealer to put beneath your foundation.

Fun fact; my dad claims to have went to UT with Jon Hamm. He says he was kind of an ass, but good with the ladies (obviously). Apparently Jon almost killed some kid at a frat hazing and got kicked out.
its a sign of masculinity you effeminate homosexual.
It's a sign of using a shitty electric razor like some søybøy, instead a of straight/safety razor like an actual man you zoom zoom.
No if you have good density that’s what a clean shave looks like
lol I use a razor but I dont shave against the grain you moronic homosexual.
Did that straight razor arrive with a chopfit and a beginners guide to cuban condoms in the Man Hamper, you frickin homosexual
>they hated him because he wrote the truth
>an actual man

Man with thick beards will shave it clean in the morning and look like that a couple hours later.
This shit man. I think I have thin skin as even after I full on shave completely I still have a 5 oclock shadow the next day.
I only want to know because I’d like to cross dress in gothic dresses for fun, it has nothing to do with masculinity
Oh what a surprise, you're a troony. have a nice day.
It looks good though
My God, IST, what moronic homosexualry will you think of next?

Yeah, get laser hair removal.

You voluntarily put alcohol on your face everyday? How much do you hate your skin?
closest I came to getting rid of this was going on a 500 cal diet to stunt my hair growth and shaving with a razor with the safety removed
I don't grow any hair on my cheeks but I get this on the moustache area and it looks ridiculous. Why can't I grow proper facial hair?
wait a few years till puberty is over
I'm in my late 20s
I didn't start getting hairs on my cheeks till my 30's lol. At 37, I'm just now starting to have decent cheek coverage. Luckily I have great goatee coverage. And yes I got my T checked and I was always 750+

No, it wasn't you fricking homosexual. Any mention of gayness was ridiculed beyond belief.

No. When shaving think of beard reduction, not removal.
Body hair is a symptom of a disfiguring poison that can only be cured with a ridiculous amount of money for laser hair removal

WMAF or AMWF?
You either shave with a fairly new razor every day, or grow out at least some stubble. If you do neither, you'll have that shit.
I used to dislike it too but honestly it's a pretty kino look
Pluck those hairs
Shave with a good safety razor and sharp blades then apply foundation to get rid of the 5 o clock shadow
