Here is a good educational site discussing and comparing Disposable / Cartridge versus DE shaving.

Thanks for sharing.

Interesting. No reason why you can't use a good soap/cream and brush with a cartridge though, as the author implies.

I see they made no mention of the AD's , on a flip note, they also did not mention vintage to lower the initial cost of getting into it.

Overall, a good article.

Interesting. And kind of goofy. Goes through all kinds of convoluted justifications for his hobby.

An awful lot of folks save no money at all by going to a DE. I know I didn't. And how many of us would give up DEs if we realized that they were less environmentally sound than disposables? If anyone's really serious saving the environment, then you stop shaving. Or at least use a straight.

Is it so wrong to simply admit that wet shaving is an enjoyable, deceptively multi faceted activity in which we are privileged to indulge.

Thanks. Bookmarked.

However, for every 16 men who use disposable razors, the spacial equivalent of 1 Volkswagen Beetle will be thrown away over their lifetimes.
