Safety Razors For A Healthier, Cleaner And Quality Shave

My husband was happy to receive safety razors for men from me last Christmas.  I am glad I thought about it at the last minute as I could not think of anything that he could use.  I was just browsing online, looking for smart ideas on what to give men for Christmas and this thing about safety razors for men came up.  I thought it was a cool idea since my husband has been shaving all his life since I knew him.

He is a kind of a "techie" guy who loves gadgets but when it comes to shaving, he still prefers the traditional way of doing it.  He prefers using safety razors to those disposable ones.  Disposable razors may be cheap but in the long run, may be more costly than safety razors.  Safety razors may be pricey upfront but they do not only last long, they can be recycled and most of all, they make a clean, close shave that you hardly get from those cheap, plastic disposable razors.

My husband's style of shaving was greatly influenced by his father, who learned from his father, my husband's grandfather. He always says that nothing beats the traditional way of shaving.  Unlike most men who use shaving cream in can, my husband sticks to his traditional cream and soap.  I do not have any objection about it as he really smells so fresh and clean after each shave.  He tells me that the secrets to getting a close, clean shave are lots of hot water, a nice brush, good razor blades, the traditional cream and soap and of course the right shaving technique.

Shaving is an art that can be pass on from one generation to the next.  Shaving should make you feel relaxed while doing it.  It is not something that you can rush because it has a rhythm and if you are in the right rhythm, you get the best shave that everyone wants to achieve.  If not, you will end up cutting your skin and get a horrible shave. If you do not know what the art of shaving is, try to watch your father or your grandfather when they shave.  Learn about it and practice doing it if you want to achieve a quality shave that is healthier, cleaner and a lot better shave at lesser costs.
