      I would suggest straight edge razors as you can avoid supporting fascists and save money.

        Straight edge and vintage safety. I’ve done it, but I always worry about the intrusive thoughts when I do the nizzles with a straight edge.

          Has Philips been touched on one of these yet? They’ve got some decent electric options for handling the bits

      I got a Henson safety razor several months ago and can’t recommend it enough, it’s a much better shave than a cartridge razor, blades are dirt cheap, and doesn’t make any plastic waste. You can pretty easily find codes online for 100 free blades as well.

        Just looked it up, and it looks interesting! Love that they have such a good trial period. Bought the AL13 and AL13-M to try them out. Thanks for the recommendation!

          As another Henson user - get yourself a variety of blades to test with them as well. I find that the RK blades they ship with their razors aren’t great for people with coarse beards and/or sensitive skin. You can get sampler packs of a variety of blades to test which ones work best for your hair and skin with various resellers online.
