Hello, my name is Jamie from central Massachusetts (near Worcester). I had always wet shaved with disposable razors , but always used old spice after shave and added clubman and stephans tou rotation about 5 years ago. So innocently bought a saftey razor 3 months ago (with a ugly reality show star on the package) and the illness started. I dumped the cheapy after 3 shaves and now have a bunch of new and vintage safety's. .. my favorite is my 1974 gillette black beauty. ..
Hello and welcome No shame in getting a MTO, it started many folks. And is a pretty nice shaver. A bit mild for new guys, but well built.
Welcome to the Den, Jamie. I used to look at the Micro Touch everytime I went into Target or Walmart. Don't know why I never tried it.
Hey, I'm from Massachusetts too! Welcome to TSD. I'm a fan of Clubman and Stephan's, too. I'm betting you're on the other side of Worcester than me-Acton.
Welcome Jamie @EzraCobb ! Glad you joined us. Nothing wrong with that bald pawn shop guys razor. If you liked the style, it's a Chinese reproduction of a Gillette Flare Tip. The original was/is solid brass and they are still around. Either one is a fine relatively mild razor. I'm with you when it comes to those Adjustable Gillettes - good stuff
We are not far! I live in Hudson. Born and raised ..live a mile away from my parents, at 42 I am here to stay. Good schools and property values are going up! With 3 daughters (15,12 & 7) and my 7month old son i need all the help i can get!
What is strange is that pawn razor was aggressive to my face? Blade Seemed un balanced, so i think the one i got was a dud...
