Thread: Have you quit for a time?

I could never go back, but a while ago I did a review on the new Gillette pro glide power here
I just wanted to try and see if what I had learnt from SRP about proper prep and shaving would make much difference to the end result, and it did, but I just enjoy using a straight razor too much now. I never once recall enjoying a shave when I used a cartridge razor.

I've only been shaving with a straight for about 9-10 months, and in that time I did go back to the cartridge razor while on a cruise... I didn't want to risk using the straight while being rocked by waves, or in such a cramped washroom with barely any counter space.

Looking in to the future, I'll be going back to school for a post-grad starting in January, and I expect I'll be very busy with long days of studying and homework. I'm not sure yet if I'll choose to sleep an extra 15 minutes in the morning and just shave with a cartridge razor.

From the day I put a straight razor to my face I have never going to anything else. However the days between shaves has fluctuated quite a bit

Not working for a year plus has left me with a rather long goatee (with no intent on cutting it yet) but I still shave the cheeks. I'm on my last puck of Colleens soap.... beginning to panic a little....

Nothing shaves me better and more comfortably than a straight razor. It's like having a barber at home that never quits.
