Regarding 2024 social norms: the world is a big place and not everyone lives in the US or Western Europe.
Also, people have extremely different beard growth rates. I'm in my 30s and believe I personally still haven't met a man whose facial hair grows quicker than mine does. I can shave in the morning and by 6PM it no longer looks clean whatsoever. Yet there's many men who can't grow one even if they'd like to.
> But it turns out disposable razors saves your from cuts and learning technics and people want that.
They're also useful for those with disabilities or other issues that make it difficult to use a straight razor. I'd love to use one but have tremors if I hold my hands/arms in certain positions, rendering it unfeasable. We're definitely a small minority though, for most I'd recommend the straight razor.
- true_religion 2y agoAs someone not living in the western world, beards are even more prevalent here than in the US.
- maeil 2y agoAs someone else not living in the western world, beards may as well be extinct here outside of the creative industries (arts, fashion, music).
