The thing I can’t understand is that men’s razors have become so metro-sexualized with all this extreme close-cutting, lubrication, pivoting an all that.

I’ve been using Bic razors about as long as I can remember. Used to buy them for about a dollar a bag. Work fine once a day and I just don’t care to have my cheeks and chin as silky smooth as all these new commercials portray.

Most of the time I just use an electric razor on trim function to cut down the beard to a non-itch state.

My bathroom drains run slow due to Earthquake settling of the house which messed up the slope on the pipes. I used to use Bic razors too until I had to unclog the pipes once a month. I bought an electric shaver. It was cheaper than redoing the plumbing

Years ago, I bought a Bic to compare to my “metro-sexualized with all this extreme close-cutting, lubrication, pivoting” Gillette. It wasn’t even close. There’s a reason I spend all that extra money on the Gillette products and it’s not because I have piles of loose cash.

Small wonder why Dollar Shave Club does not sell a separate razor line for women. Saves lots of money that way.

Frankly, for me I use the Gillette CustomPlus pivoting dual-blade disposable razor with a good shaving gel. It's a relatively simple razor and works really good for me. I used to use the Schick Xtreme 3 but it's now too pricey for me....

You use Bic? I don't know, sounds kind of Nancyboy to me.

Why don't you shave like a man?

Just don't start wearing a fur coat and carrying a purse, I mean, European men's hand bag.

I shave cheaper, blades cost $15.00 for 300 shaves.
