The value of a good razor...
Last night, while at the grocery store, I remembered that I needed new razor blade refills — I had pushed my current razor to its last nanometer of sharpness, and I was beginning to feel the effects. To my dismay, the store was out of the razor that I use: the wonderful Gilette Mach3Turbo. And thinking that I really only needed something to tide me over untill the next time I went shopping, I decided on a $2.55 bag of cheap Bic disposables.
Big mistake.
I don’t know when the last time I shaved with a cheap disposable razor was — maybe seven years ago or so — but, man… Who would want to use one of these things?!
On a bad day, I will cut myself in one or two places. This happens rarely, but it happens. I think the picture here gives good reason to fork out the extra cash for a good razor. Last night, I should have just paid the $9.00 for the Schick Quattro, but since I am so attached to my razor — and so disappointed that the refills were out of stock — I didn’t even want to try.
The thing that irks me most about all of this — you’d think it’d be all of the cuts, but it isn’t — is the fact that after all of the pain I went through this morning to shave, I didn’t even get a good shave.
Woe is me.
