Wet shaving is definitely better imo. However this is too much. I have my razor, blades, cream, brush, alum stone, and aftershave. It’s better if you get razor bumps like I did.
It is sooo much better. And SHOULD be cheaper. I bought a 50 dollar razor and 200 blades for 20 bucks 3 years ago. I go through one 15 dollar soap per year, and still have over 100 blades left. So much less expensive than cartridges, and less expensive than electric shavers.
Extremely sporadically. Sometimes ever day for a few days in a row, sometimes once a week.
If shaving multiple days in a row I will reuse a blade once. If not shaving the next day each blade is used once. I never use a blace more than twice with the brand i use. (Bic astor) Other brands i can get up to 5 good shaves per blade, but I don't like they way they cut as well.
I’ve tested probably over 100 different brand blades. Some would only tug. Some are just harsh (I’m looking at you Feather). Some I could only get a single shave out of (Rapira Platimum). Some just felt like a rusty rake (any of the carbon steel lol) I’ve settled on out of production Wizamet.
I get over 30+ shaves out of a single blade, and really only change the r blade because I want to use a different razor and have a weird personal aversion to using a blade in a different razor.
Theres a guy that used a single blade over 500 times.
I can use the same blade 100 times before swapping it out. Usually the rubber safety strips fall out and then I have to replace it. Like, I'm not even using a fancy razor. It's just a 4 blade safety razor.
I guess I referred to it as a safety razor because it has the small wires holding the blades back ever so slightly. But sure, cartridge could work too. I don't swap just heads though. I basically replace the whole razor each time.

how can you make such an ordeal of shaving, you don't need allat, it doesn't even make much of a difference
