Edit: so it turns out that every hobby can be expensive if you do it long enough.

Also I love how you talk about your hobby as some addicts.

    Try a good synthetic brush. I prefer them over badger brushes. But don’t go crazy with badger brushes either, a decent $30 brush will be 99% as good as a $120 brush. The major differences are looks, not function.

    Same goes for a lot of the razors. Find a style that works for you, and just stick with it. Experience and skill mean a lot more than equipment, as long as it is good enough. Again, $30 should get you something pretty good once you know the style you like.

    The soaps (and don’t forget the aftershaves) aren’t really a problem either. Just dedicate one closet to the stuff that you currently enjoy and keep the rest in a cool part of your basement. A few of those big shelves from home depot will hold it all nicely and give you room for next seasons releases.

    You’ll know you’ve got a problem when you start buying the matching EdTs, so don’t worry yet.
