Book Review: An Education in Shaving
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is an education in shaving. You're grounded in the basics, and receive semi-advanced information and techniques as well. Though it's nothing you couldn't have figured out yourself with time and experience, the time and effort (and pain) saved is worth the cost of this book. Being one who researches almost everything down to tiny details and subtleties, I thank the writer for saving me much time. I've saved money too: the information and locations of shaving cream samples saved me the expense of running through tubs and tubes when, really, one only needs a few shaves to make an opinion. I've gone from a freshman to an informed shaver in a matter of days. Thanks.
Summary of Leisureguy's Guide to Gourmet Shaving, Third Edition: Shaving Made Enjoyable
The third edition of the complete beginner's guide to traditional wetshaving---brush, shaving cream, safety razor with double-edged blade. Traditional shaving is enjoyable and thrifty: double-edged blades are as low as 9¢ each vs. as much as $3.50 for a single disposable multiblade cartridge. The multiblade cartridge's tug-and-cut action often results in skin irritation, razor bumps, ingrowns, and razor burn---thus all the "protective" shaving preparations and "soothing and healing" aftershaves now offered. Most men with skin problems decide that they have "sensitive skin" and never realize that the problem is the multiblade cartridge. This third edition also tells how to cure and prevent razor bumps and ingrowns. The book is complete in itself, but it also includes links to a host of resources on the Web to complement the book. Sources are provided for all you need to get started. It's also a perfect gift for Father's day and as a graduation gift for guys.Beauty & Fashion Books
