I?ve finally run out of Gilette razors. What to buy?

I don't remember you having that long of a beard, but I only met you like 6 or 7 years ago.

Yeah I used to keep it short but at that point I was about 2yrs in to growing it long.

I order all mine from here:

g=Get on the email list. They will send you crazy deals. They go all the way up to seven blades.

The last can of shaving goo i bought was 1982ish. Absolute crap. Been using soaps or creams ever sense.

I have a straight razor but am scared.

Working on the winter beard, so not shaving much these days.

A flatlander like you doesn't need a real beard anyway. Up here, it's a survival prep.

You'll probably nick yourself a couple times at first. I did. But once you get the hang of it, like someone on a straight razor forum said, you realize holding a deadly weapon against your face is pretty cool.

I can still pretend, can’t I!

Has anyone tried a HeadBlade product to shave the head?

I used one for a while. It worked ok. I?d say it?s a bit more ergonomic than using a normal razor. I ran out of good blades and just kind of went back to my normal razor.

I brought myself one of those, and promptly realized it was harder than it looks. But I will likely give it a good, strong go, when my current stash of Gillette blades wears out. I drive those things to the stub... so it may still be awhile, even though I only have like 3-4 refills left.

But yeah, that's the plan.

I, too, am about to run out of Gillette blades. I've been following the thread and appreciate the replies.

Anyone know if any of the three brands recommended (defender, Harry's, and Dorco) have historically run kick-ass black Friday sales?
