Anyone remember their first razor?

[molarbear]

I had 7 when I started college. A pack of Gillette razors my Dad gave me, and this fancy ass 5 bladed thing the Army sent me on my 18th birthday

being part of the governments secret "youth serum" program I didn't have to use one until my spring semester, when I was 19. I had about 8 hair growing under my chin, I didn't know they were hair at first. I tried scrubbing the absolute bejeebus out of my face in the shower a few times thinking I had got some ink or something on my face from chewing on a pen.

When that failed, I thought about visiting the 24 hour clinic on campus, because I was scared it was skin cancer (I just had these black spots on face suddenly...)

It was around the time I was panicking in the common room, jumping between pacing the hallway and taking phantom scared poops as I built up the courage to go the clinic that the RA saw me. His exact words were "have you thought about shaving, your facial hair kind of looks like shit?" and in that moment I was like "oh fuck! I got facial hair!" the dude had no clue he just relieved my mind of all these nightmare scenarios as I ran and grabbed the fancy ass razor the army had sent me and covered my face with way too much shaving cream and started shaving at the sink in my room.

Anywhoo, I have no clue what brand that razor was. It did last me about 5 years, though.

No effing clue. I learned to shave with a straight razor with a handle, but the first that i bought on my own, no clue

I don't remember the first one I got, but I remember the first one I used - my mother's single blade. I used to cut my fingers changing the blade almost as often as I cut my legs actually shaving.

I've always used electric razors because I'm a pussy.

I’ve been shaving since I was probably 12 or 13, so there’s absolutely no way my brain will ever recollect the brand. If I had to wager a guess, though, it would be Gillette. I remember having a lot of those over the years.

I haven't shaved in a year because I'm depressed.

How the fuck you remember your first razor? You shave once a decade or was the first time just that momentous..

Sweeney Todd style, I like it

I had a barber tried to use one on me once. I finally agreed to let him shave the back of my neck with it, but not the front.

Look man, I'm not knocking any barber, but the dude was old. If he happened to die, have a stroke, heart attack, fuck.. old person shaky strike, in the moment he was shaving me, boosh, right through the jugular

My Dad used one of those!

They had these little toy shaving kits he bought for my brother and I so we could shave with him

The the razor was just a piece of soft plastic (I chewed on it >.>, a lot) and it came with a little soap dish you were supposed to be able to make lather in, but we lost the stuff about 10 mins after opening it. We ended up just using shampoo in lieu of our fake shaving cream

There is absolutely nothing wrong with that

Being called a dick is way worse

I mean, one gives birth and the other falls a person if gently tapped

I've been there, many times

That actually why I have an electric razor, for when I'm too lazy to use a real one

I know everyone is different, but I found it actually helps a little. What once seemed like a monumental task was made much easier by me being able to just flick a button and shave basically while relieving myself (2 birds, one toilet)

Good to see Zeni and Viper set their differences aside and finally fucked

now the ultimate question is, were they cosplaying as step brothers, or step sisters while bumping uglies

I have one of those weird memories where I can remember a large chunk of everything that is not important

Also, no. I can not tell you the last time I purchased a razor
