Using something like a Muhle R41, you can get a shave so close that your skin feels as smooth as glass (only nicer!). I'm not as proficient with a straight yet but I get a buzz out of shaving with a blade made over 200 years ago and keeping it sharp myself. Like I say, there's probably something wrong with me but I enjoy myself. ???? "I get a buzz out of shaving with a blade made over 200 years ago and keeping it sharp myself.

Sattar Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Now it has become very fashionable to walk with an unshaven beard, and men have become easier in this regard, because you only need a good razor which you can cut the length of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puwa Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 My big discovery was that virgin coconut oil lubricates the face far, far better than any shaving cream, including the pricey stuff from the Body Shop, let alone soap. I get a super close shave and never draw blood anymore. It brings out the best in whatever blade I use. Good for the complexion too. A bottle of good cold-pressed coconut oil is cheap and lasts for ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
direction BANGKOK Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 I do not need a close shave, and I finally shelled out and got a nice pair of panasonic clippers. Best money I ever spent. They shave close enough for me, they never run over a hair without cutting it it seems, and i can shave my head with them as well. https://www.amazon.com/Panasonic-ER-GP80-Professional-Hair-Clipper/dp/B00KNCXFR0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Crank Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 I asked my dad this question and he said: "we'll, it's not my father's razor" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
