Title: I know we have some folks around here with a shaving fetish... Post by: Creek Walker on January 29, 2013, 06:26:28 EST So have y'all tried out Dollar Shave Club? I think I'm in love. For $6/mo., I have a new blade for each week. They work as well as the much more expensive Gillette blades I've always used...I had forgotten what it was like to not be using a 3-month-old blade that was so dull it plucked rather than shaved. And since I refuse to shave every day unless I have an important meeting, I can actually stockpile blades. :laugh: I know this isn't as sophisticated as going and sitting in a barber's chair for a straight-blade shave, but for those of us who cringe at the idea of paying $10/blade at Walmart, it's well worth it.

Or you could just do what I did and grow a beard. :naughty: Title: Re: I know we have some folks around here with a shaving fetish...

CObh doesn't much like it but I have no plans to expose my face to the cold air until at least the end of February. Title: Re: I know we have some folks around here with a shaving fetish...

I'm pretty sure he was talking about Vinnie. Title: Re: I know we have some folks around here with a shaving fetish... Post by: VinnieVOL on January 29, 2013, 07:59:27 EST Yed.

I grew mine 2 1/2 years ago when I took my new job. My wife loves it and urged me to keep it. I trim it weekly, but it's still incredibly easier than keeping up shaving!

Post by: 73Volgrad on January 29, 2013, 08:12:55 EST I shave once a week (cheeks above my beard and neck line below) because I have to. I went a couple of weekd this month and my wife commented on it. I hate shaving and welcome the day I retire so I can go a month or so between.

My wife loves it and urged me to keep it. I trim it weekly, but it's still incredibly easier than keeping up shaving! I was trimming mine weekly but the holidays hit and I grew increasingly lazy. She made me trim it on Saturday and it was the first time in at least 3 weeks. It was a little unruly, to be honest. I shave once a week (cheeks above my beard and neck line below) because I have to. I went a couple of weekd this month and my wife commented on it. I hate shaving and welcome the day I retire so I can go a month or so between. This is my normal mode. I shave on Monday mornings unless something special forces me to do otherwise. Sometimes I keep other facial hair but the beard is typically just a winter thing. Nobody at my work minds, so I just do what's easy and comfortable. Title: Re: I know we have some folks around here with a shaving fetish...

But I too find it hilarious. :smile: |
