How old are the straight shavers of B&B!

**just1nsturm** · 04-15-2009, 07:50 PM

I know that an age poll has already been created, but I thought it would be cool to have a straight shaver age poll!

If it has already been created, well then I'll shut up

After enough data are collected, I'll make a graph for fun. See if the distribution has a skew different from the other thread haha. I'm 21 by the way.

Same, 21

25 looks like our age group is winning till some of the older gents get a whiff of the thread

I'm 24 and have been shaving with a straight for about two months now

**Leche** · 04-15-2009, 08:22 PM

1-10

I could see my 3 year old with a straight. Mayhem.

28 for me though.

**mdunn** · 04-15-2009, 08:35 PM

21! (though with all the Tabac, Brut and Old spice I wear you wouldnt know it!)

44, just started with straight about 2 months now. Still use DE when I'm pressed for time.

Amazing how much better and faster I instantly became with a DE after a few straight shaves.

Yeah I know it's unnecessary to put the 1-10 age group in there, but my OCD wouldn't let me skip an age group. And the statistician part of me :) (Psychology student). Then again, who knows, it's not entirely unheard of for a boy to be born with facial hair! Haha.

I need to change my answer to 1-10.

Shouldn't it start from 15-25?

Why 15-25? Sorry am I missing something?

Well, 13 then; whichever age people start shaving at. People are going to click 1-10 just to do it.

I would have! But I didn't see it.

Happy belated birthday. I'm 26 too. Who would've thought that straight razors were a young man's game?

64 and have been using a straight razor for 47 years (yes, that's right, I learned at 17 when I bought my first straight - a Dovo 5/8 which is still in my rotation and is still a beauty).

**mretzloff** · 04-16-2009, 04:22 AM

I'm 18

EDIT: Ah, didn't read the tread title. I missed the "straight razor" part

**Brodirt** · 04-16-2009, 04:25 AM

Im 43. Ive been with the DE on and off for years and have recently moved over to straights. I started with a Feather AC a few months ago, so I'm really kind of hybridized. I shave 5 times a week and I would say 2-3 are with the straight.

**lax1mxr** · 04-16-2009, 04:56 AM

42 in two weeks. Been using a straight for about three years. Have used everything else from Bic single Blade Plastic (peach fuzz special) to the Fusion. Straight is by far the most rewarding! Feels even better to not give any more of my money to Gillette/P&G, even though half of my neighbors work there!!
