**The author skipped a big deal in Roman history—the Age of the Beard.**

Well, that’s because it’s a history of shaving, not a history of facial hair.

But is it a thick enough bear that it looks full enough? I don’t like the “balding” look to a face.

MY wife likes it. that’s good enough for me.

I wear it about half an inch long. I wish the mustache was just a bit thicker, but the rest of it’s ok.

“Bought a Gillette Atra in 1978 and am still using it today.”

Gillette Atra: best razor ever made. I also bought one around then (in college), and I am also still using it today. My wife will buy me one of the newer 3, 4, 5 blade razors every so often (to get me to stop using that “old” thing) but I always go back to the Atra. It works best with genuine Gillette blades, rather than the “generic” ones. And, if you wash and dry the blades after use, each cartridge will last 2-3 weeks, if not longer.
