Hi folks,
I just discovered safety razor shaving a few weeks ago and I am hooked! A few guys at work recommended shaving with a safety razor but I never really listened. The other day, I found the Micro-Touch One (Weishi TTO) safety razor kit in the clearance section of my local wal-mart and said what the hell, why not for $15.
Later that night, I watched some youtube videos and gave the shave a try. All I could say is WOW! Even using canned Gillette shave gel and not knowing what I was doing, my shave was super smooth, painless and pretty close! I had always used a Gillette Mach 3 which I thought was the best reasonably priced razor out there, man I was clueless!
Even though I have only been doing this a few weeks, I can already tell I will never go back to a cartridge razor. I have to shave every day for my job so maximizing comfort and minimizing cost is very important to me. Double edge safety razors really seem to solve both of these issues, in a kind of old school, hobby type fashion! I really enjoy hobbies and lifestyle activities that involve some nostalgia and tradition. Because of that, I enjoy cast iron cookware, traditional archery and now safety razors! I am already eager to upgrade to a higher quality and more aggressive razor, some sort of better shave compound than regular ol canned goo and maybe even the brush. Stand by for posts where I ask questions about those topics. I will also try to contribute and post any tips or hints I learn along the way.
Thanks,
Adam
