Sound Advice

From a legend in the shaving industry for over 50 yrs.:

...I use one blade edge on the first day and the other edge for tomorrow. And then I change it. If you make two passes and one against, you will have irritated skin.I only do one pass, but well done, which is what you need to do.

INTERVIEW with Mr. Miquel Ricou Sole, founder of Myrsol:

Welll..... YMMV is all that I'll write.

I don't even have to read the article. An ATG pass does NOT cause irritation.

All evidence has been buried. All tapes have been erased.

If you have problems with ingrowns, that is sage advice. But for most people, it's just not true.

Old Vaudeville Routine

There were two comedians who had a long running vaudeville routine. One called himself Bad Enough (Baby Butt Smooth) and the other went by the moniker Well Enough (Damn Fine Shave). Vaudeville audiences dwindled and the pair fell upon Hard Times (a street not far from “Times” Square). They started squabbling, about money — of course. One thing led to another (skin irritation, razor bumps, ingrown hair, razor burn, weepers), punches were thrown, and they finally ended up in court before Judge O. Noyoudont.

After they had finished telling their stories the judge laid a small fine on Well Enough (DFS), but he threw the proverbial book at Bad Enough (BBS): a $1000 fine, 5 nights in jail and probation for a year. Bad Enough (BBS) couldn’t understand, so he asked the judge for an explanation of why he had received what he considered a harsh sentence. The judge was surprised by his question, shook his head a few times to clear his head, then looked down at him and explained,

“I’m trying to get you to learn to leave Well Enough (DFS) alone.”

Many Thanks to Flip Wilson of Delightful Memory!

Bruce, I agree completely with you on the ATG pass. That said, the article is really worth reading. A very enjoyable interview!
