Wet Shaving
Do we have any afficionados of traditional wet shaving here on the planet? I have taken up this art recently.
If you're a n00b, I'm talking about this: http://toolsandtoys.net/wp-content/u...-shave-kit.jpg Quote:

Yeah. I posted a razor thread not long ago that got a lot of traffic for it.
|
I use the mug and soap, but haven't gone back to a safety razor. Mach 5 and an old patch of denim.
|
Electricity and water are not a good combination.
|
I don't shave. Can't remember the last time I did. Has to be at least 5 years ago.

Dollar shave club might be a little more expensive, but a LOT less dangerous.

The wife got me a Merkur DE safety razor and all the old school shaving accoutrements for my birthday. Used it for the first time this morning. It's like a hot knife through butter. Love it.
If your hands are so shaky that you can't use a DE without slicing your jugular, you may have Parkinsons. |

Yep , safety razor here. Shaving cream, soap , water are for pussies.

There seems to be a lot of difference in blades. I had some Personna blades that worked fine and were only like 15 cents each (and made in the USA if you want to know). I am pretty settled on Feather blades for now. They are among the most expensive but when the difference is only 10 or 20 cents a week, why not.

I've been doing for about a year now. I am currently taking it a step further and trying to learn to shave with a straight razor.
For the first time since it was a big deal to reach the age of shaving, I am enjoying the act. |
