AA Day 10! This is by far the longest stretch of daily shaves I've had, and my neck is doing just fine. I did a three pass shave today, and all is good.

Sure am. Mainly decided to give it a go to see if my neck could even handle it. Before this I shaved every other day to every 3 days. Glad to know I can!
