Shaving with olive oil

Same here! It must help me if you tell how you go about it. Just apply olive oil and shave it off with a razor? Do I have to leave it on for some time? Apply shaving gel or not, etc.,? I switched to an electric shaver, and the shave is not as smooth as a razor shave, but there are no cuts. I must try a razor shave with the olive oil method you would suggest.

Grow a beard. No cuts. No smell. No (and this is the biggie for me) having to be awake enough to shave at that time in the morning... Just trim it every couple of weeks (or let it grow for that Unix Guru® look)

Depends on if you're too lazy to take a bath as well. :)

And if you get hungry you can usually find the remnants of a few previous meals lurking in it...

I just thought the same thing. But I guess the smell won't be a problem. People won't come that near with this "Show me your beard and I'll tell you your last five meals" look.

That's a good spin on it!

Read some posts raving about this over the weekend so gave it a go, and can recommend it - no nicks, no redness, really close shave, and skin feels smooth afterwards. As someone who usually ends up red and bleeding it's a good find.

Shaving cream/lotion/gel (that does not foam) also do a good job. Something like the Zihr cream or gel are good.

With Brutus being in todays CCC and now shaving with Olive Oil, am I the only one who has noticed a Popeye theme in todays Lounge??

Being the type of person who has to do a full head shave(except my eybrows), and generally looking like I've attacked myself with a cheese grater, I might have to give this a go. Although I have found Maco Root Shave Creme from the Body Shop does the trick too...
