@jameschip soap? What do you mean soap? Are you saying I don't need that funky foam???

Jens Finkhäuser

@bouncepaw @jameschip Nah, shaving soap is way better.

I mean, I should know, I shave only about once every 5 years or so.

@bouncepaw good bar of shaving soap and a brush. No more need for cans of weird fluff. And a bar of soap lasts for ages.

@bouncepaw oh, yeah, sorry. A half decent shaving brush and block of shaving soap will get you far. I don't know what is available near you but Mhule and Edwin Jagger make some very good vegan shaving soaps.

The initial setup for a classic shave can be quite steep but the long term saving is huge. I bought 250 blades for about £10 and they lasted me years, and I buy a £7 block of soap maybe once a year or so.

Very little plastic waste at all.
