Thread: In efforts to get a straight blade experience I left with disappointment

I absolutely would have refused to pay for that shave. Period.
If you asked for a Mercedes and got a Pinto would you have paid?
On the other hand if I asked for a Pinto and got a Mercedes........

I did not know that you could get a Mach3 shave. That's interesting.

$30?!?!?

Maybe Im a cheap bastard....but for $30 I should hope they are throwin in a "happy ending"

Thats what scares me about the idea of going to a barber and asking for a straight razor shave. The last time they saw one was probably in school (if then)

It's much in the way of walking in and asking for a razor haircut versus scissors. They're totally different things and to give one under the pretenses of another is just plain wrong. Of course, it's as many things are these days are ---- cheap, quick, and easy versus quality. I, too, vote there should be a happy ending for a $30 Mach 3 shave (whatever that is.... I could just use my Venus on your face and we could call it a Venus shave!)!

You should probably be thankful he didn't use a straight because if he did he probably would have sliced your face up. There just aren't too many competent barbers who can use a straight any more and of those who can I'd be looking for shaky hands.
