Who’s A Skinhead?

@Sammy86 Damn Sam, I cant get under 17 minutes. Granted I use a safety razor unless I’m traveling. The penalty for speed is harsh.

And what a fantastic film. The kid's story is wrenching. Don't know his name, but his "mentor" skinhead is an awesome actor (small role in Band of Brothers....pick him out).

#1 clippers for me.

Stephen Graham? Yeah he's a very good actor. Been amazing in everything I've seen him in.

What kind of razors are you using that it takes so long? I use Harry's razors. They say that they're not for shaving a head, but I can't figure out why.

I use this with Merkur blades. I have very thick whiskers and have to use really hot water to soften them up. If you get in a hurry with this your wearing a bandaid. Shaves closer and anything else I’ve tried though

Not quite but over the last few years have been slowing getting it shorter and shorter due to thinning on top and hair that has never wanted to stay looking combed. Then quarantine hit and I did it myself once with the #3 setting on some not-great adjustable clippers I have. I thought about going shorter but didn't work up the guts until they slipped to #1 mid cut a couple months ago. I was happy with the result as was my wife so that's my new look.

Related, where does everyone do this at home? The first time in the bathroom was kind of messy. I realized I could just step out the back door of my garage every 2-3 weeks and let it blow away right now but its starting to get cold again so I guess I'll end up back in the bathroom.
