Wet or Dry?

perth · 06-23-2007, 11:34 PM

I have a love/hate relationship with shaving. I try to do it as rarely as possible, but always enjoy the experience. I use a mugcake for the lather, and I get the water as hot as possible. I've been known to add boiling water to the sink if it's not hot enough out of the tap.

I currently use the Mach3 Turbo. It's not too bad. I think the "science" behind the vibration is that it causes the blade to saw through the hair. I'm not sure I buy it. I'd like to get a nice single-blade safety razor. However, I haven't drawn any significant blood in years and I suspect my first few times using one would start my day a bit more crimson than I like.
