Thread: Why do it and how long does it take?

I did it because I wanted to stop wasting money and resources with cartridges. I now do it because I have spent so much money on razors, stones, soaps, creams, brushes, and strops that to do otherwise would be so ridiculous that even I would think I was an idiot if I didn't! My face shave takes around 5 minutes, and my head shave is roughly the same.

Of course there should be an equal (or greater) emphasis on spiritual needs, but 'possessions' don't really stack up, do they? Anyway, now I'm raving and completely off topic; sorry!

No you hit it right on the head-the most important thing to have IS your health,without it all the stuff in the world means nothing. IMHO.

Thats the other reason I shave with a straight.

Shaving With A Straight Razor Is Good For Your Mental Health If Not For Your Wallet
