If you shave with a safety razor, how many times do you reuse the blades before discarding / recycling them?

#shaving #razors #SafetyRazors

Got a new shaving brush and stand for it a few weeks ago. (I'd been using leftover cans Barbasol from a pie throwing class for ..the entirety of my adventures with #safetyRazors up until now)

Slapping foam onto my face with this thing and shaving my sad excuse for a beard is a great #MasculineJoy moment :) I used a mug I got when I was in Germany to foam up the suds and it was a lot of fun!

Aaaaand it means that my mask seals properly when I have to go to the store!

edit to add #tDiary and #testosteroneDiary tags as I suddenly remember that if I wasn't on it, I wouldn't have grown the facial hair I have lol.

An original Gillette Fatboy D4 safety razor circa 1958 sells for R2,450 ($155) in South Africa today

I still have my dad's old Gillette Fatboy razor, which he would have been using in the 1960's. I cleaned it up and have shaved a few times with it, as of course as safety razor shavers around the world know, today's DE blades still fit perfectly well. A safety razor is built to last multiple generations. Try that with today's cartridge razors - you won't find blades for them in 40 years time, or by then the blades purchased, will have bankrupted you!

I just really regret my dad never let me into the secret of safety razor shaving, and I had to suffer ingrown hairs for 30 years before I discovered this...
