Thread: Your Shave Related New Year's Resolutions

What are your SHAVE RELATED new years resolutions? Or anything funny/interesting but try keep on topic.

1) No more shaving soaps, I have 1Kg of cella which I love and need to kill off some others.
2) Shave with my feather DX everyday until mastered
3) None related: Quit smoking and Get back in shape

EDIT: Happy new year everyone

1) More testing the Things i have (Soaps, Razor, Stone) instead of buying more and more
2) Giving Razors of my Collection a Chance i early put in the deepest depth of my drawer
3) Bringing my Skills with Kamisoris to perfection (honing them too)

In 2014 I tossed the Mach3 to return to the DE (started shaving with a DE at around 14). For 2015 I resolve to move on to straights like my paternal grandfather used until the siren song of electrics lued him away. I only wish I had his razors.

1) stop buying more till I actually test and use what I have. I have virtually NOS razors I have used one time when I tested the edge I put on it.
2) Finally get the 2 kamisoris I have to shave properly and to start using them.
3) try to stop the AD related purchases. Have been holding out till I have more money up and getting more expensive items instead of buying whatever I can for the money I have.

I don't make resolutions as they are a recipe for disaster, but i basically don't need to buy anything until at least 2025 based on my calculation for how long my soap will last, however my aftershave will run out somewhere over the next 6-12 months. So I suppose it is to only buy what i need.

1) Slowly invest in the tools and knowledge for restorations
2) Remodel shave shack (tiny bathroom)
3) Endeavor to take steps toward B, and not Z, in attaining proficiency and self-sufficiency in our art
4) Savour the journey

Best wishes to all in the New Year, and Happy Shaving!

Just new to Straight Razor shaving..
So....

Will go nuts on straights, soaps, aftershaves, oils, strops... (i really can go on and on..)

Guess will have to wait till 2016 and regain my sanity then.

Over n out

Shnutz

Shavette user until now. Got strop for Christmas.
Resolution: get straight razor & learn to use it.

First and foremost, to take more time to enjoy my shave. Second, to try to get some SOTD posts going again. I've been too busy lately.

I'm with Ed on this one, my only New Years resolution has been to never make one, and I'm acing that one...and am with OCDShaver as well, take more time to enjoy my shaves. It seems I look forward to it so much, and then can't shake the habit of getting it done quickly from habit, rather than taking my time and enjoying....
