Father of the Year’s experience with the RetroRazor

Elliot from Father of the Year wrote about his experiences with RetroRazor:

After a week of shaving with the Retro, I have some answers:

  • The first few times I got a few nicks – nothing more than usual.  By the end of the week, I was only getting 1 nick at the most.  The trick is to not press down very much with the razor.  The blade is sharp – let it do it’s thing.
  • It is easy to find stuff on the internet – check out the Retro Razor Store for razors and accoutrements.
  • One blade seems to last for 3 shaves – you can get a 5 pack of blades for around $2.  Do the math – this is MUCH cheaper than buying those insanely expensive cartridge blades at the grocery store.
  • You can use regular shaving cream, but why not try something new?  There are a lot of soaps and creams out there that are a lot better for your face.  Why not have a little fun with this?
  • The coup de grace?  No razor-burn.  Period.
