Not the best idea I ever had. Shaving cream helps a bit, but not the mentholated kind. That just makes it worse.

To be fair to myself; I was going to test the grater on my legs first, but it’s cargo shorts weather and I didn’t want to go out in public all smooth-shanked. I’m not that European.

Also, never let a friend cut your hair with a weed-whacker. That way madness lies.

So, what grooming tips do you have to share?
