A branch paper and fork a fork fork: one sharp edge

It is dangerous You have a diving day during shaving. But in this case, it could have been avoided: my diver feast was around the shaving.

During the past few weeks, an erythema routine was somewhat similar to George Clooney Brother, where are you?Daper the bad smell Dan Dan. I was dealing with shaving soap with a brush and bowl, and a barber with ancient -style mono -style safety.

Specifically, I am using a sheet of leaves-a unilateral, elegant and elegant haircut that is well marketed and subjective self-claimed by the company entitled “I am not plastic.” The unique edge shave is called the least aggressive leaves, and it is supposed to be more nice than the fork. Everything is very nice.

But what I learned, after weeks of successful children’s haircuts with a fork, is that I was making a mistake.

Stay sharp

The Dhattas Day was clearly evident: the best and most secure is the sharp blade. the The best kitchen knife is what you keep. The same applies to scissors, and for the blades you put on your face. The single -technique of the paper was closely cut off and any preparation for a luxurious cartridge code that I tried on the market. The reason was mostly that he was still sharp.

Because this is the thing: it does not matter if you have a 15 -layer blade cartridge with whistles, lights and responsive Amnesty International. Write boring blades, and all the blades become boring with use. And when the blades become boring, they start moving away from my hair instead of cutting it, irritating my skin in exacerbation, and causing little jokes when the skin flows. Unfortunately, modern razor blades based on cartridge that dominate the expensive supermarket are often uncomfortable for constantly replacing them: about $ 30 or $ 40 for a 10 -bum.

The price adds up. time The magazine knew this game already in 1927: “As everyone knows, safety barber manufacturers derive the largest part of their profits, not from shaving blades, but from replaceable blades.” A little legendBut the logic of work in shaving is still unjust: money in the blades.

So I resist the exchange for a long time. Then pay the price. Although Gillett and other shaving makers announce that their blade cartridges are good for weeks of solutions, my peeling, rough, evil and steel tends to eat much closer than I want to replace. So, I continue to pay the blade installments, or pay my tax in the form of a very good haircut.

Safety dance

The paper provides a theory opposing shaving: money in the handle. The blades instead are cheap, small, everywhere. The fork is in the heart of the old -style safety shave. It is compatible with any good -style safety code, whether classic Platinum stars (You will have to pick up the double edge in half) or the papers Special blades. Packages of a hundred less than the 20 dollar invoice.
