Please help me!

[barman]

I've been wet shaving for about two years now. I have 15 razors including a fatboy, an aristocrat, several super speeds, a merkur hd, and a slim adjustable. Lately the love of my life is a merkur slant. No other razor seems to shave me so close or be so enjoyable. Am I happy now that I have found the only razor I'll ever need? H*ll no! I just ordered a schick injector off the bay and I can't stop drooling over a new ikon. I know that I have RAD. Is there a cure? Can someone please help me?

No, you're screwed

Buy some creams, and start your SCAD, thus taking away from your RAD

What you need my man, is a 1912 patent GEM/EverReady/Star type SE razor and some Pella blades. Learn to use one of these and you'll scramble to give up that slant.

Hope That Helps.

Agreed. SSAD and SCAD should be cheaper if nothing else. Plus TheShaveDen easily has over 150 different creams to try in their sample pages, not to mention their aftershave milks and splashes.

The only way to prevent RAD is to replace it by another AD...

the only cure for buying DEs is moving to straights

 

[bill mcdill]

How about brushes, how many you got? Not enough is my bet, better get busy you're waaaay behind

 

[wimbouman]

Resistance is futile...
... we are the borg!

(of shaving, that is)

Some people just don't understand that any shaving related AD is not actually a disorder, but just a hobby not quite understood by beloved ones ;-)

Did you see the thread about the number of razors B&B members own? Some own between 200-300. You have a long way to go. Time's a wastin'

I have a straight (it needs to be honed) and a shavet. I still yearn for more.

You've got it. Can't do anything about it. So just sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride.

No use fighting it!

Got my schick today and gave it a try. Thought I'd give it the morning rush treatment.....little to no prep, just lather up and go. Not too bad. After three passes, a little irritation and one or two weepers. Most of this due to using a new blade. Can't wait to try it with proper prep. I won't get rid of my slant just yet, but this schick isn't half bad.
