What Your Daddy Didn't Tell You About Shaving!

Like most people I made the change to a safety razor because of the price of standard cartridge type refills. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made. A safety razor when done correctly will give you a much closer shave and a puck of Shaving soap with a shaving brush will last you much longer. Listen to this man. He knows what he's talking about. Your skin and your wallet will thank you

I'm a Kiwi and I started shaving at 13. One of my earliest (and fondest) memories is of watching my Grandfather shave with his safety razor (which he purchased in the early 1930s!).

My Grandpa was born in 1890. I wish I had the straight razors he used. He died in 1976 when I was 10 years old. I wish I could go back in time and talk to him and share some shaving stories. Thanks for sharing this video, Geo!

"Shave like your grandpa did." I love it Mr. Geofatboy! One of the best overviews of 'wet shaving' I've seen in 2019.

indeed my grandpa was right with his shaving, now it's my turn to continue this tradition! -Cheers

I didn't have a dad to teach me. I'm thankful for men like you who share their wisdom for those of us who have just had to figure things out along the way.

Understand that sometimes the razor can be expensive, but it will last for generations if you take care of it. I'm serious.

Greatest decision of my 30’s has been changing to a de safety razor. Look forward to shaving every time.

Really deep knowledge of shaving, i dont think anyone can do better than you, keep making more videos geofatboy Congratulations!

click on video -> like -> watch it Been addicted to your videos lately keep it up geo. Greetings from Germany

all men on this planet should listen to this man.

You're a great teacher geo ! I learned to shave with a Straight Razor from you and believe me ,not only my friends were surprised , but even a pro barber admired me and said " They can not perform a shave like this on their own face with a Straight Razor ! Thanks geo .God bless you .

I started shaving when I was 12 with a Shick butterfly razor my dad had. I graduated to a straight razor when I was 16 when I found my stepmother's dads straight razor. I honed it stripped it and was shaving with it when she saw and gave me the razor to keep. I have a nice collection of wedge razors and DE razors.

when you´re watching geo´s videos and let you get that urge to get shaved then he has done everything right ;) I´m so glad I discovered this channel a few years ago, thanks for all the advice <3

An adjustable razor IS perfect for beginners! Start at 1 and work yourself slowly up to 6 with the Futur. You won't need to buy several razors to find the right one. Also, you can adjust an adjustable to the aggressiveness of different blades instead of using different razors on different blades. I started with adjustable and got bbs shaves immediately. Had I bought a non adjustable as a newbie and that razor had happened to be mild giving me a bad shave, I would have given up on safety razors. Get the Merkur futur, newbies. It's amazing.

Great all encompassing shave tips video Geo!

Straight forward knowledge mixed with dry humor, what a combination. You're a good "step" teacher. Much appreciated

Amazing content. Thank you Geo you are amazing! I started using a safety razor and also a shivette because of you.

Hi Geo- Great shaving advice, as always! Enjoy the weekend ahead and all the best!
