    What a curse be a dull razor; what a prideful comfort a sharp one

    +1, or if this fails, PIF the brush and get yourself another one.

    I am the opposite. Before I retired, I shaved with either and electric razor or with a cartridge razor to save time. I hated shaving. After retiring, I started to wet shave, first with a DE and now with straights. It takes me 1/2 hour per day to shower and shave, but it is one of my favorite parts of the day.
