I hear ya on the upkeep of a beard versus a clean shave...I am currently sporting a 6" long fumanchu mustache that can be a bit of a hassle at times. I'm wondering just how much of a hassle it will be to shave around it with the straight edge, when it's already a bit cumbersome with my Fusion. I've had to buy small hair clips, similar to what my wife uses in her hair, only much smaller. I use them to hold the 'stache out of my way when I'm shaving close to the sides. If i were smart, I would stop shaving my head and use them to clip my 'stache to the sides of my head when I trim my neckline.
