    Default Seems like razors are going to start getting popular.

    This is the third article in like a week I have read about shaving from a non shaving site.

    Interesting that after taking to the straight shave he still opted for the DE for speed. What is 10 minutes of sleep? I will trade that for razor care and a straight shave any day

    @JTmke - when I switched to straights I just started shaving the evening before vs the morning. The shave is so much closer I have no problem making it all the way to the following evening without noticeable growth.

    Same here. I will shave in the afternoon that way I don't have to worry about any possible time constraints.

    It seems that article from a non-shaving site is decent. However, it seems he got his straight from a non-shaving site as well.

    I'm with sharpton - this comes off as one of the more "engaged" articles about the subject.

    Now getting the cost per SR shave down to the level he suggests ($3.65/year) would require the self-control of the mythical "Two razor Bob" (with two low cost - serviceable razors, a strop, a barbers hone and a Crox strop or paddle, Williams or Arko and a lonely boar brush of questionable parentage) Since he does not cover soap/cream let's assume that this was not part of the equation - just the blade.

    I still like the article...thanks for sharing.
