How can I shave if I have sight loss?

Many people consider shaving to be a personal grooming task that is potentially dangerous for someone who is blind or has low vision. In everyday practice, however, the skill is not dangerous at all. Many of the skills and techniques involved in shaving do not rely upon vision and may only require basic safety adaptations and closer attention to touch.

Further information including tips gathered and adapted from the American Foundation for the Blind can be found on RNIB's Shaving webpage along with top tips for shaving from Breandan Ward who has sight loss.
