Jim shaving
Is Jim just shaving painfully? Or does he cut off a mole?
sharelol. My guess is that he was shaving off a months+ facial hair with no shaving cream. Ouch!

I believe it's just having to shave with no cream and almost no water. Even with shaving cream and lots of water, my husband's face looks like it's been hacked to bits, so that could be Jim's issue too. That he's not that great with shaving. Plus if the blade is dull, the skin will have a better chance of being cut more.
sharehave him try a pre-shave oil. you can buy it or you can make some with 50/50 olive oil and caster oil. you can add a little essential oil too. eucalyptus is nice. before applying shave cream put a dime size amount on hands and massage over face. i have sensitive skin and not much facial hair. this seems to help glide the blade better over skin; traditional barbers do this. most disposable razors have a small amount of aloe on the rubber strip but it wears of after a few shaves.
shareDull blade + dry shaving + lots of hair = lots of cuts, sadly.
sharehas to be brutal, i cant stand when i have lukewarm water
shareYeah, I'd just say "screw it" and trim with scissors and enjoy my beard rather than put up with that.
shareright,facial hair seems like it would be the least of my worries
shareSeriously. I mean, out of control, to the knees beard? Yeah sure. It gives someone/something something to grab. And a place for blood to gather. But otherwise. Man. it offers some protection and cushion when you get hit.
...I have thought too much about this, clearly.
