EMSK: Men don't trim their beards.

In all seriousness, these work well: http://www.amazon.com/Philips-Norelco-QT4070-Stubble-Mustache/dp/B003U8ESI4

I have been shaving off and on for about 15 years now. My motto is a quality tool to be used on my quality tool. Here are some things that could be a problem.

• Wrong Razor - Don't use crappy disposables. This isn't your face. These were my go to for awhile, but I have moved over to the Gillette Men's Body Razors. I like the Gillette's better as they seem to last much longer. As soon as the protective coating around the Schick's wear off you might as well be using scissors.
  
  
• Old/Worn Razor - If it tugs at all toss it.
  
  
• Trim - Haven't shaved in a while? Use a quality electric trimmer. I use the a Norelco QT4070. I originally bought it for my beard, but I have it very useful elsewhere. The shorter the hairs are when you go to shave, the less pull you are going to generate with the razor. That leads to less aggravated skin.
  
  
• Shaving Lotion - Get some body shaving lotion to use with it. There are loads of brands out there. While your at it throw that crappy Barbasol away and get something decent to shave with for your face.
  
  
• Going against the Grain - I don't recommend it for the pubic mound. On the shaft or balls, it becomes more a matter of where the razor can fit at the correct angle than which direction the hair grows.
  
  
• Aftercare - To deal with the razor burn that you will get while your skin isn't use to shaving yet, get some Neosporin and rub it on gently. There are also products made specifically for post-pubic shaving. After some trial and error, I still feel like Neosporin does the same quality job without the added scent and for a half the price.
  
  Before you try any of this let your skin heal.

Unlimited budget, no worries about making profits, ridiculous amount of technology and talent available: What kind of game would you make?

Maybe that's why my games are considered "niche," why they go over budget, and why my programmers have to work so hard. So basically, I'd be doing exactly what I'm doing right now! :)

What do we need to do to convince you to regrow the beard? Charitable donations? Animal Sacrifice?|Men need to embrace dynamic facial hair. Change is good.

But please feel free to make charitable donations nonetheless!

I like this Phillips trimmer because it's got a built-in vacuum to keep the trimmed hair from making a mess on the sink.

I use the cheaper Norelco QT4070 primarily because it has a vacuum. Vacuum beard shavers are amazing.

Mine doesn't cut too long, if anything once in a while I cut too short. This one has a guard that rests near the trimmers as low as 1mm. Once I got this bad boy, I never looked back.

Yes, I'm someone with a lot of opinions and experience maintaining my junk hair. Maybe it's odd, or maybe it's my calling.

You could always buy this bad boy and do the perma-stubble look. Even if you are patchy in place, if you do perpetual stubby with an electric razor, eventually the thinner parts will catch up. Or should.

This is what I use and it's served me well.

I have that model, although I got it way cheaper and I would recommend shopping around for it.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003U8ESI4

The vacuum is worth the money!

When you look at this picture it's rather obvious I could use a good trim.

I use one of these in a dry tub. The built in vacuum gets most of the trimmings. Afterwards, I use a canister vac to pick up the remaining.

Or this which allows you to get the designer stubble look on your face if you wish: http://www.amazon.com/Philips-Norelco-Stubble-Moustach-Trimmer/dp/B003U8ESI4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1345595604&sr=8-1&keywords=philips+beard

And it has a vacuum to catch most of the hairs! I'm thinking about getting one soon.
1mm to 18mm, compared to the bodygroomer which is 3mm to 11mm. So you can get shorter and longer hair with this, which I would say is a big plus.

Obviously designed for your face but no issue using it anywhere else I assume.

Yeah, I guess so.
I own this one which is similar to the one our linked to. I've had some problems where it doesn't cut some hairs all the way, so the end of the hair is still hanging on and ends up getting kind of annoying.

This one claims to have a 1/64 stubble setting. So I guess it's that or the Norelco BT9285. Which should I get, assuming money is no concern and I want something that will stubbleize my head and face in one pass (ideally)?

For body hair, a beard trimmer with an adjustable/removable guard and vacuum are my recommendation.

With Vaccuum

Without Vacuum

As for facial hair, does he have any interest in a shave kit with a safety/double edge razor? I can help there, but not so much with an electric for facial hair.

or these: http://www.amazon.com/Philips-Norelco-BeardTrimmer-adjustable-QT4070/dp/B003U8ESI4/ref=sr_1_2_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1457740681&sr=8-2&keywords=best+beard+trimmers

I resolved this problem by buying a razor with a small vacuum in it (an older version of this model). All the hairs get pulled in as they're cut.

I have heard great things about this one, and I am planning on picking it up.
Philips Norelco

Bought this about a month ago, so far it's been great, the measurements are displayed on either side of the head as well as a nice illuminated screen on the front. It holds a good charge and the vacum feature actually works really really well to the point where I can walk around while I'm getting ready in the morning while trimming rather than hovering over the sink.

I have he Philips 4070 beard trimmer and really love it. Trims well, especially on turbo mode, battery life is very good, good length range, nice design. Feels very solid. Might not be BIFL but it will last years for sure, given I trim about once a week.

The vacuum feature only semi works, but I don't mind, I trim over the sink. Price is great on Amazon at $50 and $5 coupon.

I've been using the following Philips Norelco trimmer for the last year and have loved it: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B003U8ESI4/ref=mp_s_a_1_17?qid=1414994858&sr=8-17&pi=SY200_QL40


It is just a trimmer, so you can only go down to a very short stubble but not clean shaven. Not sure if you'd be interested in something like this, but I don't think you can beat it for $50. The vacuum system works well to eliminate a mess of trimmings, and the battery is ridiculous. I use it every 3 days and have only charged it 3 times since buying it a year ago... including the initial charge right when I got it. It also fully charges in like two hours. I'm not sure what kind of wizardy shit is going on, but I'm a fan.

That looks pretty nice, I swear by this bad boy, it has a little vacuum that sucks in the hairs and you can easily empty it in the toilet for easy disposal. Also you can just turn a knob and change the length.

I use this trimmer that vacuums most of the hairs.
Pretty happy with it.

This one can trim at 1 mm increments (from 1 to 18 mm) length. It also has a built in vacuum to make cleanup easier.

Personally I just use the flip out trimmer on my electric razor, although right now I have a full beard, not just stubble.

That's a shaver. You want a beard trimmer.

Try something like this

Buy one of these to clean up the strays and keep rocking it!

This is what I use. I gave up clean-shaving over a year ago and switched to the trimmer and am quite happy with it.

Like zzzaz said, it has a guard where I set the length that I desire and get a good stubble all along. Trimming above the lips is a bit tricky because there is not much room for maneuvering. But all in all, a worthwhile investment for me.

https://www.amazon.com/Philips-Norelco-BeardTrimmer-adjustable-QT4070/dp/B003U8ESI4

just get one of these.

They have a vacuum that grabs ALOT of the hair , i dont have to clean the sink anymore :D .

Never looked back

I strongly recommend this too. I stopped shaving as well and the amount of irritation I got went away dramatically.

I used a cheap trimmer that I found somewhere for a while but I got this as an early christmas present and love it: http://www.amazon.com/Philips-Norelco-QT4070-41-Packaging/dp/B003U8ESI4

I use the QT4070

Nope, each country is different. I was screened flying into BKK, but I wasn't screened flying into HND for example (Where the Thai immigration police promptly confiscated my trimmer, http://www.amazon.com/Philips-Norelco-BeardTrimmer-adjustable-QT4070/dp/B003U8ESI4 - Not mad at all, I swear). The prohibited items are generally the same, but each airport allows for different flexibility. For example, flying out of ITM everyone was allowed to take a bottle of liquid into the sanitized area - I saw a few iced teas and sodas go through. Try that at any airport in the US and you'll get taken into a back room for a "thorough screening".

Before I started really growing my beard out I used this phillips norelco with the vacuum thingy. And I hate it, but too cheap to buy something different. It leaves some hairs partially cut, so it causes the hairs to tear, and can be pretty painful. So stay away.

I've been using this on my face for about 5 months and I really like it!

Swear by it

First off, you look fine. Great, even. The only thing that I might suggest is to trim the beard and to put a little product in your hair. Something to keep it from being so fluffy.

I use this to trim up my beard and couldn't be happier. In the winter I use it to keep my beard from getting all straggly and when I don't have a beard I use the stubble mode to keep me from being too baby-faced.

Likewise, I use this for my hair. It's dirt cheap, doesn't look like you have 'stuff' in your hair, and lasts for a long time. There's no need to spend $20 on a single jar of the fancy stuff, this works just as well.

Secondly, the reason you're kissless/dateless/handholdless and have no self-esteem has nothing to do with your outward appearance. I was just like you in high school and through most of college. I was 19 before I had my first kiss and did anything remotely romantic with a girl. Honestly, the only reason it happened was because the girl made all the moves and I was along for the ride. I would have been much older if it were completely up to me.

The thing that blew me away, and if I were a betting man I'd say it will be your story too, was going to my 10 year high school reunion. I had a half-dozen or more girls that I had crushes on come up to me and tell me that they had crushes on me; they just wanted me to ask them out.

You gotta do it, man. You can do it. You're attractive, you're worthwhile, and you're special. Put yourself out there and ask a great girl out before you're old and filled with regret.

Sorry, dude. Your invention already exists.

Lost my beard trimmer charger and I have no clue what type of charger it its. If it helps, here is the beard trimmer.

For a long while, I had my beard trimmed by barbers with solid enough service locally, but then I bought THIS and it is just great. Wireless + long charge + contour comb attachment + vacuum to suck up all hair as you trim = no mess, perfect length, lots of money saved annually. Very happy with my decision.

Or you could just get a beard trimmer
