Vintage Razor B+W

Description

Decided to make a Black and White version to kind of make the photo looking old-school. Anyway, I've been contemplating switching from the crappy plastic disposable razors with 10,000 blades to the old style safety razors. Part of the reason is because my skin is sensitive. With this old style razor, you shave more gently than you do with the plastic crap. That translates to better skin for me. The other part of the reason is because I'm trying to reduce my plastic usage. The plastic used to make "modern" razors isn't recyclable. The classic style metal razors are.

It was good enough for my grandfather. It's good enough for me.

I started off with an electric, then I went to a twin-blade TracII-style cartridge razor I got as part of a consolation-prize grooming kit, which I unfortunately broke in a rush to get out the door for work the other day, which led to me going to BIC Sensitive single-blade disposables and just a can of Barbasol Aloe for the shaving cream, a combination that actually works really well on my face, plus it's cheaper than getting TracII refill cartridges, about $20/pack for the TracII refills, vs. $2.85/pack for the single-blade Bic disposables.

Considering trying a safety razor at some point, but sticking to the single-blade Bic disposables for now based on how well those things work in my experience for so little dough.
