Hi,
I'm curious to get feedback on what users' friends/family/gimps feel about their wetshaving hobby/interest/obsession etc?
Obviously users are differently positioned along the variable spectrum that is wetshaving - e.g someone who has two razors, a couple of soaps, a brush and a few packs of blades is seen as pretty normal. Whereas having a dozen razors, brushes, soaps plus a thousand or so blades from all kinds of makers is perhaps seen a tad differently! Oh and then you have Mark1966's private museum!
To be fair I think Mark is positioned a lot more 'normally' than a lot of us as he has a legit and reputable collection. So even people who think wetshaving is something medieval can appreciate it as its clearly a hobby/collection of impressive levels.
Whereas for someone like me with 20 odd razors, a dozen brushes, several dozen soaps and thousands of various blades it just looks like WTF!!!!!!!
I flagged this thread as it occurred to me in a moment of day dreaming how moronic/idiotic I'd feel someone was if I found out they had a collection of toothbrushes and pastes - some of them artisan ones, others just made over seas, loads of different brush heads etc etc or the same for other personal grooming products taken to our extreme.
Haha so do others really see us this way??? If so, obviously sod them BUT it'd be good to know.
