Yesterday I passed a barbershop and saw ads on their wall outside of men with beards and short hair. It is a revival or saving electricity ?

Have you seen how much a razor costs nowadays?
Cartridges are expensive. We’ve been trained by Gillette to think cartridges are the only way, but there are much cheaper options.
One of these and a blade sampler pack will get you started (for anyone interested).
I use a safety razor (~$25) and a pack of 100 is around $5, definitely much better than the Gillette line, and honestly I like it more than even the cheaper “good” razors like Dollar Shave or Harry’s.
This is the way! The razorblades last for about 4 uses (7 if stretched) so a pack easily lasts a year, and I haven’t cut myself with one yet (in contrast to those pesky plastic razors which can’t keep sharpness throughout a single session).
Never gonna give my safety razor up, one would have to wrestle it out if my cold, dead hands!
Only 4? Oh… lol
This is the real reason. And I also just prefer to sleep an extra ten minutes every day.
This is the reason I stopped shaving. Cost. I have an electric shaver, but I can’t be bothered with a half-ass shave. Also, shaving too often gives me razor bumps.
And, without a beard, I probably look like I should be in high school.
