As someone who shaves... Yeah, that's pretty much exactly how I view it.
I tried growing a beard for a while, but I found that it was itchy, and anything I did to try to alleviate that was as much work as shaving, or even more.
Recently, I switched electric razors again and it's a lot quicker and easier than the ones I'd been using (for like 5-7 years), and it's back to "meh whatever" category again instead of "Ugh, do I have to do this?"f
Someone said it takes less time than brushing their teeth, and that's not quite true for me... But my electric toothbrush says I should brush for 2 minutes, and my electric razor says I should spend less than 3 minutes shaving so I won't irritate my skin, so it's pretty close to that.
- ecshafer 5y agoBeards become less itchy the more they grow. Shaving makes the hair sharp, and itchy. But if you let it grow out, trim the beard, and such, a beard becomes no more itchy than hair on your head. But there is a good 2 weeks of itchy.
