I am one big map of scars, but I think I've finally learned how to avoid self-nicking. The Really Nice Razor helps, too.

Spike's Bitches 34: They're All Slime and Antlers
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I have very few scars, but the ones I do have are humdingers. Mainly, the 8" "necklace" scar at the base of my neck.
I don't nick myself shaving. The key is to have a good razor and good lubrication.
I lurve my Schick Intuition razor -- I've hardly nicked myself at all since I bought it. And no shaving gel to buy!
I have also fallen for the Intuition! However, I also have the bad habit of avoiding shaving for fairly long periods of time and I think the blade gets dull (or possibly clogged by the too long hair). But it really is terribly convenient.
It's a damned good thing I don't shave, or I'd just be a spiderweb of scar tissue.
I think ita's tag counts as cheating, just because.
How do you think I got started?
Uhhh-- dunno.
I love my Intuition. I used to get a ton of nicks before it. I use shower gel with it though. I can't rely on just the shaving gel around it.
School is good, Deena.
Oh, Beej! How scary. I hope he's okay. A good dose of calm to you, too.
vw, you sound so cozy. I'm glad you talked to your dad, too. Also? Hil is wise.
Hil, what's EDS?
