I've noticed that since losing weight and my face got all angular instead of round and soft and stuff that shaving is a lot harder! Anyone else??:laugh: :wink:

    Yup, not my face, but my knees and ankles have been hazardous to shave... those damn bones.
    Would rather take my time and deal with the new bumps and angles than continue to be overweight though!

    Congrats on the weight loss

    I have had a HUGE PROBLEM with that, lol! There have been times I've gotten some where and noticed that I missed a spot around my jaw line!

    YES!!! I hate that my face looks 20lbs lighter than the rest of my body....When I finally get my body to where I want it, my face looks emaciated :(

    At least I don't have to worry about shaving it though :)

    This might be TMI but my underarms are harder to shave! It's like they're "deeper" and I'm always missing spots. Yuck!!

    Same! Not in terms of shaving but sitting on the floor is a literal pain in the *kitten* now! Not to mention some of the floor exercises. Even with a yoga mat my hips dig into the floor and it is SO uncomfortable.

    Same thing here with my face narrowing but I can't say I'd call it a failure. It definitely has taken some getting used to because I've noticed that I look different and at first didn't like it. But in the end it's worth it to me (even if shaving becomes harder which it hasn't thus far).

    So I guess what I'm saying is Congrats on what I would call a serious NSV.

    that won't happen surely. I've always read it comes off the place you got it last. In many cases the face chubbies come later.

    and yes I have this problem on my legs too... my ankles and knees are full of nicks where I've shaved skin off of bony prominences. I've got the deep underarms too!!

    Agreed, as long as it is trimmed, no long ZZ top stuff, and no mustache without other facial hair. But facial hair is sexy!
