Shave 35

Today marks five hundred consecutive shaves for me. Here’s what I’ve learned: (1) one pass is enough; (2) most aftershaves lead to irritation; (3) I like a razor that weighs between forty and sixty grams; (4) floppy synthetic knots make the best lather; (5) it’s impossible to finish a tub of soap; (6) heat and humidity are rough on my skin; (7) menthol is a lovely thing; (8) Wizamets are great blades, but there are plenty of others that work well, too; (9) razor stands look cool, but I don’t use them much since I put my razors in a box after most shaves to keep them away from the salty air; (10) I have as much fun looking at your DFS posts as I do scraping the stubble off my face.

Congratulations Bouki.   Your own posts are pretty good fun too - great wit, interesting background - and all told with originality.  Thank you!

Great post, Bouki ! I do disagree with #5 on your list, though...it can be done.  Winking

Cella. And day 17 on the current Gem blade. Surely it'll be ready to retire soon...or will it?
