My personal, ongoing disposable razor dilemma.

Feb 23, 2006 11:48

Why can't disposable women's razors be made with the same effectiveness as disposable men's razors? Fuckin' seriously. I mean, I do think it is safe to say that overall women do a lot more shaving than men do.

This is my problem: I run out of razors, I go shopping... I'm lookin' around... what's the first thing to catch my eye? The fucking pinkest, girliest package of razors available. I'm drawn to it immediately, every time. Most of the time, I'm in a hurry, so I just look at the price, glance over the package once or twice and just take them anyway... even though I know the men's razors are cheaper and work a hell of a lot better, THEY AREN'T PINK AND PRETTY.

I know it's stupid and doesn't make any sense but it's like I can't help it. In the moment, my brain can't focus on being practical... it's all about aesthetics. And then I get all excited about my pretty girly razors until I'm actually in the shower and I have to shave over the same area about three times to get everything. And that shit is fucking lame.

To get a powerful, effective women's razor, one has to spend the same amount that it costs to buy a pack of 5 for one, and despite having a severe impairment when it comes to being commonsensical, I just can't make myself do it. Guh.
