Peter, he really is one of the nicest people; I am not at all surprised that he took the extra effort to make the video.

I'm curious to see how he enjoys the hobby over the long term. I wonder what the recidivism rate is among newly minted wet shavers? lol. I suspect it is low since cartridges don't really provide any significant advantages over traditional wet shaving.

I think Justin will stay with wet shaving, though not on a daily basis.  He is very busy with his business and a young family but we shall see.  The fact that he wanted to get better shaves than he was is promising in itself. Smile

Guys, on a slightly different note, Justin shares the space next door to me with Anton (who is always clean shaven, by the way), a photographer using antique equipment, including very old lenses as well as photographic plates instead of film (and certainly not digital media).  He uses me as a model sometimes to show prospective buyers what can be done with the lenses he is ready to sell.  He has taken photos of me using 150-year-old equipment which I find fascinating.  Sometimes I have had to hold a pose for quite a few seconds, which isn't as easy as it might sound as almost any movement will blur the final result.

Today, he was trying out a lens and the result, while I liked it, showed me that I definitely have a way to go before taming my attempt at a handlebar moustache.  BadDadthis soup strainer of mine is definitely a long-term work in progress. Winking

Killer 'stache Freddy! That's looking a lot better than the last time you posted a pic of it! That's some great progress there, IMO. The photo looks fantastic too, thanks for sharing!
