A Classic Shave

During a busy hospital medicine service, I typically work seven 12-hour shifts in a row.  During these weeks, sometimes I can get a little lazy in the shaving department.  Things really got out of hand this week though.  If I let this beard go on much longer, I’ll start to look like Tom Hank’s character in that movie, “Castaway.”

 

The reason I tend to put off shaving my face is that I don’t usually enjoy the experience.  In the past, I had always just used disposable razors and viewed the whole process as a big inconvenience to stumble through before starting my day.  However, I recently discovered some high quality stainless steel razors by Rockwell.  These ones feel so much more substantial and might even change my thoughts on shaving all-together.

There are several different settings that can be used with the razor, depending on how close of a shave is desired.  I went for one that would give a closer shave.

The razor feels really smooth as it glides across the skin.  For the first time ever, I found the process of shaving to actually be enjoyable.

Okay, I don’t know if this look straight out of “Breaking Bad” is going to work for me.  Yeah I think I’ll forgo the goatee and recruit this razor to finish the job . 😉

I really enjoyed my first shave with the Traditional Safety Razor by Rockwell.  The whole setup has a high quality almost vintage feel.  You know what I mean?  Like I could see my Grandpa using something like this as he actually took pride in his morning routine each day.  And you know what?  That’s not exactly a bad thing . 🙂
