So How Does Superman Shave Anyway? He Has a Super Beard!
Just the other day I was having a conversation with my friend about Man of Steel, and how Clark Kent goes from a bearded seafaring crabber from Deadliest Catch to a clean shaven superhero. This naturally brought up the question... how did Superman shave that beard, because his hair is super hair!
Remember when Lex Luthor cut Superman's hair with a pair of bolt cutters? The hair was supporting 1,000 pounds, technically that hair shouldn't have even been able to be cut with bolt cutters.
Gillette has teamed up with Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment for a cross promotion to give us answers. They've also enlisted the help of director Kevin Smith, Adam Savage, Jamie Hyneman (MythBusters), Bill Nye the Science Guy, and Mayim Bialik (neuroscientist and Big Bang Theory actress), who each present their own theories in a series of videos that you can watch below.
I would think he'd need some kind of Kryptonite razor, but then, as director Zack Snyder has said, there will be no Kryptonite in Man of Steel, so that has to be thrown out. Check out the theories below, let us know what one you like best, and if you have any other ideas, throw them out there at us!
