    Safty razors! Why would anyone spend 20$ on the new fangled 30 million blade razor that mighy last one shave? When you can spend pennies even if you change blades every shave.

      Switched to a safety razor recently after years of using Gillette’s… It’s life changing! No more bumps or breaking out. Also it’s cheap!

      I recently switched to a Leaf one and love it. It’s about the same as my Harry’s razor, but a hell of a lot less expensive when even Costco is selling their reloads at $27. The leaf blades are way less expensive, and they aren’t even proprietary.

        I got two of these security razors back in 2017 for less than $50 bucks altogether. Best investment ever. Then, last year I got a Philip razor but I have since just stopped shaving at home. I ask the barber from time to time

          That leaf one appears to be $120 lol

          But I suppose if you find yourself on the Harry’s marketing train, jumping off for anything that’s actually recyclable is good.

            Yeah, expensive up front, but the blades are cheap. I got on the Harry’s train before they got bought up and were cheap. Now, whoever bought them has been jacking up prices, which had me looking for a cheaper alternative.

            Harry’s also gave me plastic guilt. There is a lot of waste. :p

        Electric and safety razors don’t necessarily serve the same purpose. An electric razor can never cut as close to to the skin as a safety razor. I use both

      At some point about a decade ago I realized I’m much happier just paying the extra $8 every couple months when I go to get a haircut and otherwise just letting it grow out.

      It’s like you consciously added misspellings and bad grammar.
