Thread: Shaving in Public

Gentlemen,
About two or three years ago I was shaving at the gym daily — with the straight razor. I packed everything in my wet pack as if traveling, including my straight razor, which I stropped at home. Ah, there is nothing like lathering up and shaving with the straight after a lazy tour of the steam bath. Fellow gym members were curious. Some asked questions. Some had no idea straight razors still existed, and that some gentlemen still used them. I held many conversations with them about the world of traditional shaving. Several were even converted to double edge shaving — no one to straight. My shaves were a pleasure. They still are, although I no longer shave at the gym. So, gentlemen, if you want to shave straight at the gym, enjoy the experience.
