i stopped buying razors. way too expensive.

dont need to be clean shaven for work.

use a beard trimmer with no attachment so it cuts fairly close to skin.

cut head and face hair at the same time.


was thinking about buying a straight, cut throat Damascus steel razor to save money
what could possibly go wrong

You mean disposable razors? I use a safety razor. Got a sample 30 pack and 2 years later still haven't finished it, rediculously cheap. A decent trimmer costs a pretty penny and you have to replace blades every now and then. Although I do like the idea of not having to lather and wet shave


one disposable razor lasts you over 3 weeks?

do you have a full beard and just shave edges?

full bush?

Safety razors are different to disposables it's only the blades you have to swap out. I shave maybe 2 times per week and I can easily get 6-7 shaves per blade. Some like astra ss or nacet blades are absolutely amazing. (feather blades even though very sharp only last 2-3 times) a good razor like Rockwell or Henson might cost a bit but will last you till you die if you take care of it. The razors are metal so you can check off the "good for the environment" box as well.

Same could be said to those who claim to know all the answers if you just believe in their magic book. Yet they always ask for a donation because that magic they think is real doesn't provide for them. Judge not

I love me some deals. Ebay is great for that.

Buying second hand almost new/great condition items that are not underwear or socks is the way to go

The lord provides
Food grows on trees but money doesn't
Fruit isn't magic, but money is.

Actually money comes from trees. It's not magic it's called paper. There is no "the lord" who magically provides or multiplies fish and bread with a wave of his wand. It's nature and there is a process nothing magical about it once you understand how it works.
Hope that helps.
