How much to spend on 1st razor.
So Im in the Mil, I shave everyday, and 24$ per 8 razors every 2 weeks(thats buying on base w is 3 bucks cheaper then walmart) makes for like 600$. Even when shaving WTG,then ATG, its still not smooth.
Ive got some questions.
Would It be better for me as a beginner to spend more money on a dovo thats pre honed by the guys at classic shavingDOVO Straight Razors
or go with a C Mon thats half the price and hone myself?C-Mon Cadillac Razor-5/8”: Bowman Beauty & Barber Supply
and about honing.
How much will I actually be doing it. THe forums here say as much as every 2 weeks, classic shaving says as little as twice a year. I shave every morning, I cant even grow a full beard thru my jaw line, and its not even that tough.
Whats the least expensive hone I can be successful with if im using a canvas and leather stroap? The Norton 4000/8000 seems to be a pop choice, but its pretty pricy.
