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.

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.

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.

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. |

Oh man...What now?

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.
