    Anyone else always cut themself shaving? Best razor recommendations?

    Thanks guys

    I hate shaving

    but my new boss said I gotta start shaving

    (Yes he is Yankees fan)


    is it worth it to get one of those $300 steel straight razors from art of shaving?

    I stayed using 2 blade shavers rather than 3 or more blades.

    98% of your posts are total nonsense.

    Are you talking about shaving your legs? Try getting ahold of Bruce Jenner for tips.

    use baking soda or epsom salts to exfoliate before shaving and then use coconut oil for shaving cream with a good gillete. havent had a nick or cut since the 90's

    Gillette Sensor XL with the 2 blade pivoting head is by far the best.
    All these 3, 4, 5 blade razors are total BS, simply propaganda by the Corporate Fukks™.
    The extra blades catch all the facial hair and actually make for a worse shave.

    If anybody can find an electric shaver that can compete with a blade I'm all ears.

    Did you not have a dad or older brother around while growing up? Just by your posts I can understand why a man would walk out on his family. In the words of Vito Corleone...”be a man”.

    1. Shave after showering and wash face with hot water. Need to get the pores open
    2. I like the gel foam for lubricating the face.
    3. Use 2 different razors. A 5 blade for general hair removal and a thin single blade for clean up and around tight places like nose. Kinda like using a big mower and then a trimmer when cutting the lawn.
    4. Prefer a nice gel aftershave lotion. After application I feel for any missed spots and again use the single blade to hit those spots again.

    Have water running and rinse blades frequently

    curious how to apply baking soda

    coconut oil won’t cause a break out?

    I use the Schick Hydro 5 and its great. I can't remember the last time I cut myself shaving and it's easy for tight spaces as you can flip back the hydrating reservoir. I've been using these for years.

    I'm not a spaz and I pay attention when I take a sharp razor blade to my face so no, I don't cut myself.

    Having said that I use Dollar Shave Club.
    Their blades albeit single edged are as sharp as they come, gives you three shaves for a blade, and are very reasonable price wise.
    And they deliver, I hear the other mail order razor outfit is good too. The Stop and Shop blades are overpriced.

    $300?

    Dollar Shave Club. That's all. Been doing that for years.

    Is this a cry for help from the o.p.?
    Maybe somebody should check up on him and make sure he's safe
