Question

Post by Chiron »

I'm paying $15 for my razor refills. They are the Gillette max 3 turbo with 5 blade refills.

I really think that’s expensive am I wrong?

Thanks CM.

They only ship in the U.S. but you gave me an idea. I think it's a good investment. I'll shop for one here. Everything that comes here from the U.S. gets a 50% tax.

I was tired of wasting money on disposable razors, so I bought this:

and

The blades are super-cheap, and it's a nice razor.

I started using those cheap disposables. It hurts like hell shaving, but I don't need a baby smooth shave anyways.

Been with the 'stache and without the 'stache.

Gals who liked me w/out weren't the gals I liked.
Gals who liked me with were the gals I liked.

'stache is here to stay - HH6 is one who likes it and one I like.

I use the cheap disposables with a splash of water, shave upward and they generally (bag of 5) last me 4+ months. (hate me - light beard)

You can always invest in a good straight razor. Shit, forgot who originally posted. Scratch that you'd only cut your throat. (Never let your significant other use one on you). I use a Schick injector and order blades (Not even WallyWorld stocks them)
