"Proper shaving has become a lost art. Today's average male has no clue about the fine art of the traditional wet shave that their grandfathers and some of their fathers used to take part in. Instead, they're only accustomed to the cheap and disposable shaving products that companies market. I'm not sure when or why it happened, but the tradition of passing down the secrets of a clean shave abruptly stopped. Thankfully, this glorious male ritual is making a comeback."
TOOLS OF THE TRADE
Look at that badass piece of steel. This ain't no girly piece of plastic with 20 blades and a moisturizing lotion strip, this is pure, unadulterated manliness. Would you rather shave with a piece of machinery or a happy meal toy?
This thing will slice you right open if you're not careful. Its off the chain sharposity also gives you a closer shave than those pieces of poo they advertise on TV.
"A brush? What does a man need a brush for?", you might be asking yourself. I'll tell you what for - to give yourself a soapy lather right before engaging in a holocaust against your face hairs. Because you deserve it.
THE BENEFITS
1. It's Cheaper
2. Enviromentally Friendly
Instead of filling the landfills up woth billions of bits of plastic (both product and packaging), as well as aerosol shaving cream cans, wet shaving produces very little waste, other than the bits of paper surrounding the blades and the blades themselves.
3. More Fun
This was the clincher for me: shaving went from a tedious, boring, hateful chore to a real pleasure, something I look forward to each morning and truly enjoy. It makes a significant psychological difference to begin the day with taking care of yourself while doing something you enjoy rather than hurrying through something you hate.
4. Better Shaves
"Most men today walk around not knowing they have horrible shaves. Electric razors and the latest 5 blade contraceptions irritate the skin more than needed, leaving razor burn, ingrown hairs, and redness. Shaving with a safety razor will eliminate the skin irritation and give your face a clean healthy look because you're just using one blade instead of several that chew up your face in order to cut your whiskers."
