This is what I do when I vacation in my adopted hometown of Bayawan in Negros Oriental. NOTHING!
I use to lose 10-15 pounds every time I came here do to the occasional movement and not being overly fond of fish or Filipino food.
Not any more.
I have a comfy chair on my front porch. I sit here and pontificate into my world which is my phone.
Every 30-40 hours I scooter-jack a relative and ride into Roy's to get straight razor shaved. By 30 hours my face starts to look like it's covered it dryer lint. I use to have a brilliant calico beard. Not anymore. DRYER LINT.
If you've never gotten a good straight razor shave I can't recommend it enough. 1 of the 5 or 6 barbers are always eagerly waiting to shave me and I can hardly use my arms anymore due to lack of movement.
I would give them 5 stars but sometimes I will get a barber whos straight razor isn't super sharp and the shave is a bit "pinchy". Sometimes I will get a barber who smokes and I can smell it on their hands and breath. I hate nicotine.
My review - MY RULES.
A shave is merely 20P which is less than $0.50. I would never pay that because I'm a real PITA. I am constantly feeling my face and pointing out to them stragglers they missed. For this luxury I always pay them 50p. That is slightly over $1. It takes nearly an hour to shave me due to my pickiness. An hour of any body's time is worth $1. Even if they have stinky nicotine fingers. read more
