Great story! I was worried for a while; nicotine withdrawals + DE razor could have made for a few dicey shaves in the beginning. :-)
I like this idea a lot. The first DE I remember seeing as a child was my great grandmothers. I must have opened/closed that TTO hundreds of...
I have used a few different essential oils on my skin over the years (hippie stuff from Whole Foods) with no ill effects so far. I do not put...
Since my equipment is 2nd hand and my tastes are simple, I am pretty sure that DE shaving saves me money. Cartridge prices, even at Wally World,...

I wonder if that's what inspired Looney Tunes to do the "rabbit of seville" routine.
I'm a newb with a "last day of last month" waiver. :-) Thanks to the regulars who sent me over here.
Thanks for the welcome, guys!
Long, rambling intro follows. Don't feel pressured to read all of it. As a child I watched my dad shave and was always amazed at the ritual...
