Just bought some Grado SR-80s. Definitely an upgrade from my Sennheiser HD-479s.

I just did my first shave with a safety razor last night and well I managed to walk away with just one small nick.(I fared a lot better than I have with some cheap disposables that I have used.)

1 small nick for normal people usually translate to cuts requiring 15 stiches in my case

I have manual dexterity equal to a rhesus monkey

Nice!
I personally swear to those vintage Gillette's. Ex. the 1959-61 adjustable.
Great to see another wetshaver around here though.

I'm temted to get a safety razor, im only 15, and shave every couple of days, and my dads dad used to swear by one, and when my dad started shaving he used one with no problems, and said that they are cheapr to use, and after researching, blades are very cheap!

Do you reccommend i pick one up and use it for a few years maybe?

If so, where, and what? Ebay? What is a nice model, not too dear, but then i may use it for the rest of my life unless blades get cheaper and razors better.

I also think it would be a nice object to have, and use, and maybe collect oneday.

Thanks In Advance,

Matt

Well I just bought my first and second safety razor this week. The Merkur HD is concitered a good razor to start with.(I just ordered one myself) For info on where to buy one you can check a website like theshaveden.com for info.

 

[Baines93]

Thanks for the info.

Would you reccommend one to a 15 y/o or not? I mean, is it not advised at my age?

My dad says it would be fine, he used one as his first razor.

Growing a full beard here, don't know whether to shave it all off or trim down to a goatee... Maybe there should be a beard / shaving thread.

Just ordered: Organic vegitable box, arriving Wednesday.

At 15 you're perfectly aware that a razor sharp (haha, sorry) blade will cut you if you are not careful, and that's pretty much it. A steady hand may come with age, but apart from that, there's not much else.
