The Horror

[cybrok]

Yesterday I went to a job interview in another province, I only had a carry on luggage so I didn't bring a razor. The wet shaver's curse. The guy behind me forgot he had a multitool in his bag, poor guy.

I still looked clean, but wasn't clean shaved.

KEEP READING. It's not what you think. The interview went well... but.

The job is in a lead smelter... and a plant tour was included. You need a breather for that tour.

The security saw me and said "He'll need to shave first". I saw the guard open a drawer and there it was... the horror... the cheapest disposable razor you can imagine, and the cheapest canned goo you can imagine.

Worst shave I had in years.

My point: Find an alternative to DE and/or straight razors when you travel, even if it's only for a day.

Now I have to change my signature.

being new to wet shaving and DE shaving, i've been sampling some disposables as well as using a DE razor (Lord L6)
I can actually get a decent shave from a disposable, as long as I use the multiple pass method.

If you don't shave, the respirator loses its seal. Hair prevent it from being air tight. In a lead smelter, they don't mess around with safety (and it's ok like that).
