The average man will shave approximately 20,000 times over the course of his life, spending the equivalent of 139 full days doing it. He will shave off 27 feet of hair, from a total of 30,000 whiskers on his face. And he will probably be doing something wrong. So heβll suffer nicks and cuts, ingrown hairs, and rashes; his five-oβclock shadow will arrive before lunch, his neck will be irritated and red, and heβll get razor burn. Instead of reaping the benefits of a daily grooming regimen, heβll only suffer. Needlessly.
The Art of Shaving will solve his problems (as well as the related problems of anybody whose cheek gets burned by his razor stubble). Heβll choose the correct brush and razor and blade; heβll take more time lathering up properly and less time tending to bloody shirt collars. Heβll feel better and look better. And heβll adjust his perception of this morning ritual, bringing art and passion to a daily routine.
