Thanked: 12rednecks and blue collers. roll call. shaving related
I want the guys who bust their humps for their paycheck to reply to this please. Here's what I'm really lookin for though. I'm into getting a great shave that wont make my kids go hungry lol. I would rather lather up with steel wool glued to a dried dog turd than spend 80 or 90 bucks on a brush. If you reply, I as a nube will keep an eye out for your posts and remember to dig what ya say. I also want to weed out some like minded peeps. so if you have tattoos on your neck or hand reply. if you ride or drive something you built yourself reply. if you have ever been asked not to return to a bar reply. been asked not to return to a state reply. if you can weld reply. if you have sunday church overalls reply. you get it. I know you can be all these things and still love to pay 350 bucks for a strop but you dig. thanks

cheap brushes are ~15 bucks at Amazon, even cheaper with the VDH set from Walmart/CVS/Rite Aid etc.
cheap razor from the classifieds.
Cheap soap VDH from Walmart/CVS/Rite Aid
Cheap bowl, well face lather will do it.

I use this soap about 1/2 the time and it works really well

And this brush about 80% of the time, it works great!!
My main razors are all antique store/flea market restores

Thanked: 1262Are you talking about blue collar or felons?
I used to be blue collar, but upgraded to white collar about 10 years ago. I am free to go as I please in all 50 states though.
I know some cheaper options, but this damn white collar will not let the words out. Sorry.

I'm just heading in to try one old heljestrand (extra hollow) and an obscure soligen GCTC (1/2 grind) - with the ratty old brush, the homemade strop and the last of the VDH. I love trying all the blades. The day will start off great.

Does getting kicked out of a city count? Long story. A great cheap cream to pick up would be Erasmic. I think I paid $3.25 for it from West Coast Shaving.
