Spreading the Wetshaving Word

[Coyotebd]

Happened across a conversation where a coworker was wondering what to buy her boyfriend for his birthday. Suggested a brush and soap. I wonder if she'll take my advice.

unfortunately - probably not :frown: most people arnt as crazy sensible as us.

Yeah, I'd say the same thing. I am a member of another hobbyist forum (saltwater fish). I thought for sure that once I waxed poetic about the benefits of wetshaving I'd have a whole club full of converts. Not so.

For whatever reason, people just dont get the whole wetshaving thing yet.

For whatever reason, people just dont get the whole wetshaving thing yet.

That "yet" might be a bit optimistic.

I've been hesitant to "out" myself as a wetshaver, mainly because I don't think anyone would care. My wife thinks I spend way too long shaving, but she will admit that my face looks a lot better since I switched to a DE and a brush.

But my buddies don't know what they're missing. Oh well...

I mentioned on another forum once and gave a link to B&B, but didn't have a single response....Oh well, can't say I didn't try! :001_smile

Don't feel like spreading the word doesn't work; I found this place (and wetshaving) from suggestions made on another forum. I don't think I went back and responded to the original thread, because I just came here. That might be the case with others as well... I know I try to mention it whenever it seems germane to a conversation, either online or in person. A few people have been mildly interested, but no converts yet - although I have my father using a brush and C.O. Bigelow now instead of Edge Sensitive Skin gel.

It really seems it would catch on with a lot of people. I have women tell me that they think it's sexy. I do think wet shaving supplies would make an excellent gift for someone who has never tried it.

I got into it (and found this place) from this thread (http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=1&f=5&t=772013&page=1) on a firearms forum I frequent. I think we've made a few other converts as well because of it.
