Thread: I feel like a slacker...

Im retired and a full time beach bum so I’m not required to shave every day but I do mainly because I just enjoy the routine. I find it’s a good way to start my day. I get up about 7:00 am, take a one ounce shot of bourbon, shower, shave, breakfast. I soak one of my two Thater 4125 brushes in steaming hot water while I shower, then strop that days razor, I have seven in my rotation, and do two passes, hot towel, Thayer with Hazel, GFT Coral Skin Food. Makes me feel better most days.

That sounds like a solid routine.

I intend to give adopting the drinking and shaving thing some serious thought.

If you are a slacker than what will you call me? I prefer to shave every other day and skip weekends!

That is what I do as well

Having a hard time with this. I feel scruffy! Not sure i can go on feeling like a brilo pad. Plus, i know my razors are getting lonely.

Feelings of guilt... Physical discomfort... Mental anxiety...

Sounds like withdrawal.

You better get a shave... Just to take the 'edge' off...

If daily shaving was a requirement here I would be banned a long time ago...

Letting my beard grow for at least a day produces the best results for me as well. Always a closer and smoother shave.
