Thread: Why Shave Straight

Very well said.

I copied that to a word file, gave you credit and type it out for my wife to read. This post should be stickied.

That post is well enough written to make me a little envious, and perceptive enough to make me laugh out loud at least twice.

Thanks

PS I agree with cromagnum. This post should definately be stickied.

I read all the responses and I had to agree. I might have started to be cool or to save money but I continue to do it because it is something that is zen like for me. It is a time when I can truly block out the family and take care of me. Using a mock3 was always just a chore for me, something to be done and be over with. The straight shave is something I enjoy and do not see as a chore. It also is a throw back to better times.

Wonderful! Thank you for taking the time and effort to write that.
I wrote my feelings (though not NEARLY as eloquently) for my wife once, and instead of saying "Ah, I understand now!" she rolled her eyes and said "Its just shaving."
Oh well...she doesn't have to understand.

I get that all the time too!

My Mrs uses one of those terrible electrics and a disposable she doesn't even try to go there. Ah, well I guess its just as well.

What a great piece of writing. Thank you.

If you're not a writer,you should be.That was poetic,lyrical,and long-winded.But exactly spot-on.Thank You.

Thank you, Alan. And yes, I am a writer -- an especially well-shorn one.

Not completely incapable of brevity,

Thank you for this it's more than a thread it's a piece that each one of us can feel a part of. In a world that is now running at lightspeed there seems to be days that the only place time can slow for a moment is in the shave den. It's good to have time to reflect and remember. Straight shaving is an art many won't take the time or effort to learn but for us who are there is no better shave.
