    Default Already buying a second Straight Razor lol

    So, I have been shaving with a straight for a little over a month I believe, maybe a bit longer. Well, today the bug bit me again and I couldn't help but order another razor. Hope this doesn't happen to me too frequently might end up very poor but with a very happy face.

    That bug can be the most annoying one, but also the most pleasant one. It has a tendency to come back over and over again don't you think?

    If you have lasted over a month you should feel pretty safe, I hadn't even shaved with my first razor yet when I bought the second

    It's not a bad disease, there are lots of worse things one can spend money on

    Oh you have been bitten for sure. It is addictive this RAD, there is no 12 step recovery group, just us and we are all afflicted. Glad you are with us as we wonder the path to BBS. BTW several months ago I gave my barber a Str8 with enough gear to get him started. Last week when I saw him he told me that he had another barber use it to shave him and the comment was:" It's the best razor I've ever used." So you can see the fluid nature of RAD. It looks scary to use a Str8, but the shave is so well worth the time and investment and the fun just keeps on keeping on. Good luck, my friend. I'm glad you are one of us!!!

    You really can't give them a proper REST if you only have 2. That's why there are 7 day sets!
