I've learned that after 4 SR shaves, that SR shaving is difficult. And is alot more work. I am questioning what the payoff is over DE shaving. I am a long way from getting a DFS or BBS smooth shave.
The payoff is cheaper shaving, better shaving, and more manhood points.
Believe me, anyone who has mastered how to use a straight-edge razor *puts up hand* is automatically held on a higher plane than those who don't.
I speak from experience. The way people react when you tell them how you shave is something that using a DE razor will never elicit.
