Howdy all,
Ive been a member on here for a less than a year and must admit i love this website. I love to come on here and read all there is about shaving, but also learn a lot of new things about cigars/pipes, coffee, clothing style and anything else under the sun we talk about on here.
One thing that i have noticed which is starting to concern me is the addiction a lot of people seem to be getting towards shaving.
Now dont get me wrong a nice shave and some great equipment is never a bad thing, what concerns me is the people you see buying 6 or 7 razors at a time. Or the stones or brushes everyone wants more and more of.
I'm not here to complain or nag on anyone, I'm just saying sometimes you see it getting out of control and you start to feel concerned about some people.
I understand that it is a new hobby and you want to try out every product and have the latest thing, but sometimes you have to learn how to draw the line. Frankly i haven't seen some people learn how stop.
Now i bet your saying its just shaving whats the problem? Or its just one more strop/stone/brush/soap whats the problem? But lets try to think of it in terms of something like booze, or drugs. Would it be ok to have just one more? or 7 or 8 more?
I know I'm probably writing things that no one wants to read but i feel like someone should say it. We can still enjoy or hobby but learn how to draw the line.
Now go out there and have a great shave!
