Why Men Find Shaving So Annoying

I am writing this hub based on comments I have heard from my husband about shaving. I have heard him say these so many times. Here are some of the comments I have heard, "Oh, I hate shaving", "I don't want to shave this morning", "I don't have time to shave" and the one I hear the most "What happened to all my razors" and no, it wasn't me that took his razors. We do have a teenager in our midst.

If I were a man, I think I'd have the same reaction. Shaving is time consuming and it can also be painful especially if you are using dull razors. My husband continually gets nicks and cuts on his face from shaving. I think what hurts the most is when he puts aftershave on. I see him wince on more than one occassion because he has just found a new nick or cut that he didn't notice before.

There are many tools you need to use when shaving. It is very important to have good quality razors with blades that are sharp. There are the disposable razors and then there are razors that have just the disposable blades. Either of these items are very good for our environment because both end up in the landfills. An electric razor may be the best solution both for the environment and for having to use disposable blades. Besides razors there are shaving creams that you can use to lather with before shaving. Then of course, the aftershave. Some aftershaves smell so nice.

I want to purchase an electric razor for my husband but he keeps telling me he doesn't want one. I think I will purchase him one anyway though because he might just like it if he had one;

  • The Epilator - A Revolution in Hair Removal

    My epilator is one of my favourite products of all times. Hair removal is no longer a big issue like it used to be. I don't have to keep buying razors, nick myself or get messy with wax. I don't have to dedicate much time to it, time I'll never get back... Epilation is so easy. I would even go as far as to say that hair removal is now a fun activity. Never thought I'd say that! - 15 months ago

Shaving sounds like a lot of work to do at home, with discomfort added. Hope the electric razor is better for your husband.

I have not yet found a man that enjoys having to shave every day. Thankfully that does not bother me as I like a little stuble -not a beard... no no- but I do love the "designer" stuble look.

Yes, Princessa, I have to agree with you on the "designer" stuble look
