Interesting...I don't think I've ever had a delayed bleed...I've had cuts that bled like crazy but once I staunched them had no issues.

I've had a few weepers here and there but nothing that's been awfully messy. If you're bleeding from a mach 3 shave, you might want to look closer at what you're doing, though.

I'm black, so razors usually cause the face of black men to bump up. So, I just use Magic Shave...a razorless shave. I do get the hair on my head lined up with a straight razor when I get my hair cut.

You're down to only a drawer now? Did you sell off the separate utility closet?

I shave with a Merkur. I like it, but I honestly think that I can get a better and much faster shave using something like a Hydro. I personally don't notice the safety razor giving a better shave, but it is cheaper in the long run.

Straight razor shaving is da bomb, as long as you have the right equipment and shave cream.

TwinLuxe shaving skin care products for the win!

Tried the straight razor, wasn't a huge fan. I can get just as good a shave with a DE in far less time.

No, I just put a lot of it into my son's shaving stash. I figure he'll be shaving age in 5-6 years so it's all good. He's got the spare linen closet.
