Signature Shaving Move

Wanna share your signature or unique shaving move?

I have this outlandishly wiry hair that grows so lonesomely on my right cheek. I have to do a high pressure chop and sweep to mow it down. Very tricky.

Not sure what to call it though?
 
I don't think it's unique and it's not exactly a shaving technique, but I purse my lips around my finger and pull my finger away. That's how I clear my lips of lather. It seems to be more effective than running a finger across my lips.

Edit: May I suggest calling it the Tony Tomahawk Method?
 
I bring my lips into my mouth as I lather my face, then as I bring them back out, there’s no lather on my lips and nothing to wipe off.

I also shave my tip and bottom lips with the same stroke, most of the time.

See my VLOG for examples.

I still don't know how you pull that off so cleanly. I do the suck in to, but still need to do some finger clean up.

Shaving both lips though, that's stunt shave material.

I agree, I can't keep mine clean that way. The shaving above and below thing is a KJ exclusive. I've done it a few times to mimic him........................I've paid the price once and don't anymore 😜
 
I bullfrog it on every shave. I have a pronounced Adam’s Apple and some tight wrinkles and dips around that area. I bullfrog it by lowering the chin as low as I can while still stretching the skin going XTG and ATG. Fabulous for getting those pesky whiskers growing from all directions there.
 
I have a whole series of signature moves developed from having a 2 year old grandson that won't let you shave unless he is there shaving also. Lots of formula one speed strokes both full and interrupted.....
