Thanks to Till for this take on shaving
Ever the gadget freak and quite the saving aficionado and travel enthusiast the issue of SWT (Shaving While Traveling) is a welcome challenge. In this thread I’d like to introduce a couple of ideas and hear from others how they have dealt with the SWT issue.
There are a number of considerations at hand, that I can think of. Do you see any others?
- The shave should be a very good, close shave.
- It should be easy on the skin for when we travel for business we cannot afford to have a day in between two shaves to let the skin rest.
- The equipment needed should be as lightweight and as few pieces as possible.
- If we can do get our gels and liquids in 311 friendly sizes, just the better.
- It would be nice if our efforts don’t cost and arm and a leg.
- If the shave is quick, that is a significant bonus but not a requirement.
So, recently I bought two new wet shavers (the Schick Quattro Titanium with Trimmer and the Azor by King of Shaves) and also a new electric razor (the new Philips top model).
In addition, I ordered the Alpha Oil by King of Shaves, introduced elsewhere on this forum. The version I got is specified as being for sensitive skin (always better) and anti-bacterial. It contains Triclosan, the same stuff found in anti-bacterial hand soaps. This is particularly welcome since the plan is not to use an aftershave.
