Is it better to use a straight razor or a multi-blade cartridge razor?
>>
>>33924549
I think straight razor if you get skilled and learn to sharpen blades.

If you're environmentally conscious, straight and safety razors are the way to go. If that's not an important issue for you and all you want is a cheap, convenient, safer option (i.e. less cuts) then disposable razor.

Multi-blade razors are absolute bullshit. They defeat their own purpose.

To slice your throat? I'd recommend a chainsaw.

Straight razor gives you more control and a much cleaner shave because it won't gunk up.
The cartridge just keeps you from cutting yourself.
The down side to the straight razor is an outstanding shave takes a lot or effort and experience.

holy shit bro stop being a faggot and get an electric shaver like every functioning non autistic person
>>
>>33924732
Electric razors are for absolute fagots.
Cant be trusted with anything sharp, can't learn a skill, can't be asked to focused on a task for more than 5 seconds.
It's like making freezer pizzas and calling yourself an adult.

Stop being an edgy teenager and start being a productive member of society and surprise you won't have 30 minutes every morning for "le perfect meme shave"
>>
>>33924755
30min? It doesn't take that long to shave, and if you want to presentable you should get the best shave possible. It takes a min or two, and is way better for your skin.
>>
>>33924755
Nta. You think you are all grown up but you have not learned to shave. I did not learn to ditch the memes until later life. It is you who is doing memes. They had shaving figured out a long time ago.

You think it takes 30 min for an adult man to shave his face?

Straight razor for the satisfaction of the skill in using it without cutting yourself (i.e. being a hipster) and for rough preliminary shaving.

Multi-blade cartridge for the last touch-up for the smoothest shave.

Actual real straight razor knife if you want to do the work of maintaining it stropping and keeping it sharp.

Straight razor that takes disposable straight blades, if you want to be lazy about it but still want that straight razor feel.

There's also classic safety razors, but those just seem like the worst of both worlds to me.

Tend to agree for any blades over 2. 2 blades will do a good shave and last long enough. But once you go through two blades, you're just dragging dull blades over your face to get to the other blades.
>>
>>33924857
I switched from multi-blade to safety razor, honestly it's a bit more abrasive to the skin but it handles my particular kind of facial hair better(it's both very thick individual hair and dense, multi blade was stuffed with every move if I didn't shave for two days or so).

Straight blade I'm afraid to even try, not dextrous enough.
