I have come to like today's theme quite a bit. Like many, when I first got into wetshaving, I did it intending to save money. However, I quickly jumped off the deep end. Today's theme reminds me, as I tell the people I try convincing to wetshave, that wetshaving can be cheap and still enjoyable. I am so glad I saved money with today's shave, and of course, I had to remind my wife that it was shaves like today's that got me into the hobby!
