Shopping for new blades for my old razor I realized that the gel used on the blades could not be vegan. I didn’t want to check online if they were vegan and as I realized that the blades for my old razor cost about the same as a saftey razor + 5 blades, I bought the safety razor.

Like it so far, was a little concerened to cut myself but slow and steady wins the raze (haha, get it…?) It leaves a tiny, tiny stubble, but maybe that is just me getting used to the new razor. What I like is that it is much easier to clean, since you can remove the blade and rinse it off or even disinfect it. Should I disinfect my blade? Dullsters on the internet, what is your wisdom?

    25 years? I assume you’ve at least trimmed it and you’re not running around with a beard down to your toes. But yeah I used to do it, still do if there’s an occasion to. Once I started shaving my head too it just got easier to get cheap razors and do everything at once in the shower. I probably should do it again someday soon just for the experience again

      Oh yeah, I trim it weekly, reset shape at the barber. It’s just been that long since I was clean shaven.
