The razor blade cost comes out to more than what i was spending on shampoo…
Get a DE Razor. You can buy a 100 pack of blades for the price of 4 cartridge type blades. Plus they give a way better shave! They aren't as forgiving as the cartridge type though so you'll need to take your time until you get the knack of a DE razor.
Ya, tried the safety razor route multiple times, but always end up going back to cartridges.
Theyre easier to use (especially when im in a hurry) and dont irritate my skin as much
I get the store brand 4 blade cartridges $20 for a 12 pack with a handle. Lasts me about three years shaving twice a week.
I try the DE again every so often but am never happy with it. The soap puck and brush are great though. The only time I use canned foam is when traveling.
