    Shaving? I had to reassure the waitress at the greasy spoon that I was in fact smiling under that moustache, and she was amazed I didn't get a speck of chili in my beard.

    I just use a good old fine steel toothed comb and some scissors to keep it trimmed once a week, brush it twice a day, and keep on truckin. If it gets too long/starts changing colors/summer coat vs winter coat, I'll go to a barber and tell them to take a little off the top, and take it all off the bottom and grow it back out.

    Ladies love beards, don't ya know?

    there is usually a restroom available somewhere, but if you are really looking for a electric razor the norelco seems to be a time trusted brand.they also come battery operated

    Just microwave it to warm the water. If you have a microwave.

    Shave? Not me, think of all the money I've saved over the years on razors, shaving cream and aftershave. Not to mention I get a lot of compliments from the ladies.

    after being "made" to shave daily for over 18 years thanks to the army, I enjoy going a day or two without shaving.

    Speaking of! A friend of mine told me about a product she found at Walmart that's like a little pad you slip onto your finger and just rub it in a circular motion over your legs and it removes the hairs just like shaving but without the mess of shaving. She said it works great for on the road.

    oops..sorry..back to the men's shaving topic. :biggrin_25524:
