DE Shave Article

Gentlemen,

Occasionally I write a short magazine article on traditional shaving meant for the general public. Here is the latest opus. Enjoy.

Nice job.

You are the man Obie. Great write-up. You hit all the main marks about wet shaving.

Thanks for the article, Obie!

Great article, Obie! Hope you are well.

That should inspire a few to at least try it, very nice.

Obie,

Excellent.

Nicely done, Obie. We need even more Pied Pipers!

Thank you for sharing Obie. Great job!

Very nicely written piece!

Good work!

Very nice article, Obie. Thanks for sharing and spreading the news.

Good article. The only thing is missing instructional videos on YouTube.

Thanks for the kind words, Pooking. Alas, it was written for a magazine. Instructional video is a whole different world. It can be adapted into a little script for an instructional video, but I don't have the time.

Stay well.

Good article!

Gentlemen,
Thank you for the kind words about the article. I have done a series of these shaving pieces for this publication and its readers seem to like them, so we're on a roll. I am looking forward to doing more in the future. I'll keep you informed.
Stay well.

Nicely done!

Well done. Way to spread the word!

Nice article. The only issue that I had was this statement.

"...the DE declined in popularity after the 1950s, when multi-blade disposable blades were introduced."

That occurred at least 12-13 years later (1959 to 1972).
DE and Injector razors dominated the entire 1960s.
May have been a misprint.

GDCarrington,

If you study the statement carefully, it reads in part, "DE declined in popularity after the 1950s . . ." The word "after" in the statement covers a lot of ground.
