It was a proper brush and shaving cream from Body Shop for me, although I do currently have a beard.....

Does make shaving alot easier and helps you not to slit your throat!

Yes the razor just glides over! Asda do it for 99p....but only comes in a small can

Just a little heads up no pun intended depending how you shave be careful with a cut throat,
If your a straight up and down man then no worries but if you are like me and go against the
grain sideways etc depending on the flow of the beard dont go near a cut throat or else you just
might,
Little heads up though have a pop with clarins shave gel well worth the money.

I thought was something that was going to be in issue 11 of Proper..............

I got a straight razor from my grandad... He told me to practice on a balloon till I got it cracked... Shaved a few balloons clean so thought ... Right here we go... Fucking hell ... Try doing it in the mirror! Nearly lost my nose! Back in the box it went.....

always wet shave,hate electric razors just bring me out in a rash,always mean to get one of them cut throat jobs done but never seen a place that does them in blackpool

Have never owned or used an electric razor - wet shave everyday without fail - its another of my OCD traits :-)

Been using this for years

I do head and face once a week with a fusion. Does me.

got sick of paying for over priced mach ultimate power fusion bollocks etc. and havin red face for for 2 days, now use safety razor, merkar 34c, feather blades, men-u syth brush and tabac shavingsoap. would never go back and blades are cheap as..
if u want to try a cheap safety razor, theres a feather one you can get for about a tenner and its mild so you wont get cut to shreds havin a go

Can't use foams or gels but used to use Clarins shave oil and it was brilliant but the price has rocketed over the last few years so use Somersets shave oil now which is just as good,get mach 3 blades for nowt at the moment so i'll stick with them

when im in the far east love a visit to the barbers ,wet shave,hot towels,face massge the lot,takes about an hour with the headshave costs about £7,treat myself to old style barbers every now and then in london but nearer £40 for the works
