Last time you used a shaver like this one:

Never did.
I changed from cartridge razors to electric razor about 3 years ago and haven’t look back!

Sunday, as part of my goal to reduce plastic in my life I switched to one of these a few years ago

Where can I buy one and the blades in Taipei?

look for a trendy/hipster shop for men, i saw one in kaohsiung arena; there is also the chance that you can find them in a men’s barber, or an online shop

i got mine from amazon, and ordered like 200 of the blades (after trying sample packs in order to find a brand i liked). i also liked the idea of shaving soap and a brush (no more aerosol cans, i buy soap in reusable metal containers. The only plastic still there is the lid of my aftershave. when i get low on blades i figure i’ll try one of the local online retailers…

Let’s do that. I hate the whole shaving industry for the rubbish products they force onto the consumer. Rip off after rip off.

How long has it been since you last checked out the shaving thread?

The shaving thread

Ok the non political shaving thread, no Trump no Pelosi no Brexit. I often delay shaving due to discomfort or lets say I get a pimple which I have only had since wearing masks. (I am pretty old now). The discomfort of shaving gets worse with age. A kind of redness and feeling that sand paper has been over my face. Anyway I generally prefer the clean shaven look. I have used shaving cream, which helps in speed of shaving but not discomfort, and used many kinds of disposable razors. Shaving…

Ah, memories of upmarket badgers

Very easy, answer the last question, post a new one, such as “How long has it been since you last [insert an activity common in the past but not any longer today]”.

I will start with:

How long as been since you last used a fax machine?

Thanks , I need a shave, Covid is making me look too barbarian. Thanks
