Whilst shaving this morning I was pondering the waste of using a five bladed razor and chucking the catridge in the bin when I'd finished with it.
I was thinking of getting an "old fashioned" double edged safety razor and using a proper shaving brush. My old fella uses a Merkur razor and a badger brush and shaving soap and swears he gets a closer shave than with the usual cartridge razor. It also seems to be a little more environmentally friendly!
Are there any real men on here who use proper safety razors who can give me a bit of honest advice? Is it worth it or will I end up cutting myself to ribbons?
