In a word, yes. Most of my shaving and non shaving purchases will have been well researched and compared before purchase, only on the rare occasion will I go mad and buy something on impulse without first evaluating it but by and large my meds take care of that!Over the years I have learnt to become a super discriminator in terms of my shaving product preferences; no doubt, like many other forum members. A razor can be a smidgen too mild or 1mm on a knot loft can be the difference between keeping a brush in rotation or being banished to the never to be seen again drawer. The same with soaps and blades. On occasion, I have found that I have started to be just as discriminating (should that read anal) with other product purchases. Do you find yourself being more discriminating with other product purchases outside of wet shaving, or were you always super choosy or careful with your product purchases?

Just out of curiousity, what are your preferences for shaving related purchases? I don't buy that many products, but generally I try to keep to my preferences which are the following
- Milder razors (eg Techs)
- Gillette blades
- boar/synth brushes around the 24mm knot width
- Shaving sticks/tallow soaps
My other hobby are guitars, and I do take a huge amount of time to research my necessary purchases but once they come through the door I have not much need to look for much else.
I'm the same with cars, car detailing, and beer brewing stuff.
With detailing, I've spent so much time researching and I enjoy it. My Audi is black, and black shows every mark. I've become a bit obsessed at avoiding light swirls and marks, and I like a perfect finish. New car on 27th March, and I'm already considering a £150 air dryer to cut down on drying marks and scratches, which happen with towels. No normal person is this obsessed
