Gillette Fusion on Sundays (after two days of not shaving) and a Braun electric razor Mon-Fri...
|
Merkur HD with Feather blades for the past few weeks... Never going back.
|
old Merkur 38HD "barber pole" with a gel I discovered in England called "King of Shaves", now distributed here in the states by Remington (or Burt's Bees shave cream on occasion). Used to use a nice brush shave soap but getting lazy as I get older.

The first time was when I figured out that my wife and I were not going to make it. Figured I'd let her see me just once. The second time was about a month ago... ... figured the same, there's an end coming, I feel. Quote:

Haven't seen that beautimous scar on my chin (courtesy of a swan dive off a bicycle back in college) in over 30 years :).

Hard water is a big killer of razor blades. When the water dries it leaves calcium deposits on the blade. When I store my Mach III in a glass with 1" of glycerin in the bottom the blades last a lot longer. My helpful housekeeper keeps throwing out the glycerin and washing the glass though.

So, why does the Shavette have teeth?!
|
Phfffft. I used a propane torch.
Honestly I have the facial hair of a fat lady. I alternate between a fusion and some Phillips electric. I shave when I start looking like the extra in some old Kung fu movie. |
I use Schick Intuition Razor, cucumber melon or Pomogranate. ;)
|
Gilette Fusion every third day. I usually get 3-4 months out of each blade.Couldn't grow a beard or 'stache to save my life.
|
Merkur HD with feather blades. Tried a bunch and feather easily the best.
Edwin Jagger best badger brush with Mitchell's Wool Fat Soap. I was trying to find another soap, but got three pucks for Christmas, which will last over three years. |
Gillette Mach 3 since it came out. Love it. Wifey does too (wink, wink).
|
Mach III for the last 2 or 3 years...I like it compared to the disposables I was using.
|
Yellow and white bics bought in the bulk pack from the supermarket. Each one lasts about two weeks or something like that- I've never really noticed.
They shave close enough. I can't see the point in giving your face death with a four blade razor (gawd) when it grows back anyway. |
Stopped at the CVS yesterday on the off chance they might have Williams shaving soap. They did at $1.59 a cake. A dollar cheaper than on the net. They also had King of Shaves gel. Picked up a nice boars hair brush for seven bucks. This stuff was a little dusty and way back on the lowest shelf but they did have it.
|
I just pull out the hairs by hand every week or so. Then I treat myself to cucumber melon or pomogranite lotion.
