i knew something was going on over this past week. i could feel something on my neck,,,but saw nothing.
two days back i noticed while and after my shave a small bump and with a closer look i see a hair.. and it wouldnt shave off...
damnnnnn. yesterday i sat down with a tweezer and a 5X mirror and snagged the b*****d...haha gotcha...it was a good 1/4 inch at least
if couldnt believe it.. before i started de shaving it was like i was farming them... since i was introduced to de shaving they totally disappeared
after 40 years my streak is broken
its embarassing

i got a INGROWN !!!! first one in yyeeaarrss...
i know no matter what you do a ingrown can happen..
i was so surprised finding one after so many years and it was in a area that i never had a ingrown before
actually i have had ingrowns start but my razor always (almost always)
makes them pop out from under the skin and the next pass does away with it.
just not this one. im lucky in this respect ..almost all my ingrowns grow so close to my skin line i can see them.. generally my razor will shave just enough skin to make the ingrown hair pop out
and probably if my ikon was in use this week i could have forgot about it
years ago my hoffritz slant was a ingrown killer
so i wa just sharing my experience

My one and only appeared about 18 months ago right after I'd started using a Trac II, as a part of my awakening to the variety of razors there are to choose from. Fortunately I had been reading SMF regularly, I think, and was somehow aware that this was one danger of using the multi blade carts, so I stopped and that was the end of the problem.
