I hate shaving

I hate it.

A good electric razor costs too much $$ and still takes time getting used to, and still can't get as close as a good razor. A good razor costs $2 a blade. A crappy razor cuts my neck to ribbons. I'd grow my awesome bear-man beard again if it was possible. Gilette needs to be shot for charging so much for a mach 3 razor, the French Jerks. Then Schick goes and copies their technology and charges just as much, the American Jerks.

If no one minds, I'm just going to go cry myself to sleep now.

Uncle Sam retired me a few weeks ago so I tried the beard thing, first time since I was old enough to shave that I have gone more than 3 days without. Grew it out then decided it was time for trimming and hacked it up so bad it wasn't worth saving. Now I got a clean face again. Tried to let my hair grow and just couldn't get used to that had to get it cut already.

Buy a non-fog shower wall mirror and shave in the shower. The best $15 I ever spent.

Saves me 10 minutes every morning and no shaving cream needed.

Also, my Mach-3 blades last an extra week that way.

Electric razors are only good for backup when absolutley necessary.

I'm here. I was just thinking about this and it's bothering me why is it when a man shaves he uses the same razor about 7 or 8 times and when a woman shaves the first time it's dull? Can anyone answer that for me?

I've always used the Gillette sensor excel since my Navy days and have had no complains. In fact I think is was the only one they sold at the Navy exchange. I did notice that they stopped the twin blade a few months back and now all they have the triple blade which I've noticed seem to last longer and even when they start to dull they dont cut up my face.
