Mach 3. I have two, the "carbon fiber" looking one and the "sporty" red one. I shave maybe twice a week.

With no Wally World to speak of I got maybe 25 cartridges off eBay for cheap about 2 years ago.

I can't believe they have the Schick Quattro, I mean 4 blades, really. :-/ I'm holding out for the Mach 6 which should be twice as good as my Mach 3.
Shit didnt even think of ebay.

The one i just bought is 5 blades iirc.

There is a madtv clip where a razor commercial has 14 blades. At the end the guys face is all cut up. Lol

 I used an old straight edge because I just liked it better and then I switched to an electric, and then finally I quit shaving and grew a beard :D It needs to go though

Why you Mutt!

 I've been getting these 4-blade razors from Winco. Work great, open in the back so you can flush out the blades. Last a couple months or so.

I've found that razors last a lot longer if you shave while taking a shower. Don't know why, but for some reason, if I shave using shaving cream, razors last about a week or so. If I shave using soap and while showering (got the idea watching "The Sopranos"), blades seem to last many times longer.

I also like to keep a razor or two in the car's cubbyhole. If I don't have time to shave (or if I forget), I can still look presentable in polite company.

I have a mustache and goatee, use a small pair of scissors to keep those trimmed.

 I use an old timey double edge safety razor.
With shave soap and brush.
Blades are so inexpensive as to be close to free. ($.99 for 10)
Shave soap is $2.50 and lasts for 6 months worth of shaving.

I'm 50 yrs old, and I've never shaved regularly.


So have the doctors given up yet or is there still hope for puberty?

And do it about 3 times a week. I do my hair, then take off the attachment and do my face. I always look like I have a 2 day growth, but I don't care.


Who would have thought that eyebrows would grow back so thick so fast?

I just sent that Dollar shave club link to one of my coworkers yesterday. He was complaining about the cost of razors last week, so hopefully it's available to Canada. This guy's so cheap though, he'll probably think a dollar a month is too much. :-/


Next thing you know you'll have him convinced to drive one of those cheapa$$ Metros like you drive. :deal

Simple, inexpensive, effective and slow ;)

I don't get razor bumps or any of the usual razor issues. I don't get nicks and cuts, just a nice clean shave. I've used all the aforementioned types of razors, and needed a styptic pencil for them all at least once.
The brush lifts the bristles and pushes the soap under them to keep them lubricated and lifted. Eliminating the need for multiple blades on one razor.
And I like my "me" time in the bathroom.
Just like the olden days, (Ricky and Lucy, Ozzie and Harriet, My Mom and Dad)
I take my time for a ;
"shit/shower/shave"
