Me buying Dettol™ Soap and calling it a day.

There's no need for any of that. There's plenty of higher-end grooming products marketed to both men and women, or even gender neutral, that can be purchased nowadays. And yes, if the price point is your greatest concern, it's a factor to consider. But shaving brands for men such as Proraso is great quality for the price point. Why more people settle for brands like Gillette when there are better products on the market at or even lower in price is beyond me.

At wal mart: "blue Equate brand men's loofah $2" "blue Equate brand women's loofah $1"

That's not how this is supposed to work.

Women's razors are far superior to men's razors

The best solution is the cheapest. Get a good quality safety razor and disposable double edged blades. Much less waste and the best shave.

This is true but it has a learning curve and you shouldn't shave your face with these unless you're willing to accept that you might accidentally get some small scars from nicks

The only scar I have in my face is when my brother closed a glass door on me, and I have been shaving with a safety razor for years now. Sure, it takes a bit to get used to, but that's with anything new.

Have I nicked myself? Yes, once or twice, a few months in, when I got a bit too cavalier about shaving with it (it's still a sharp blade). But it didn't leave a scar.

I’ve been shaving with one for years and have never nicked myself more than I would have with a normal razor. It’s really nothing to be afraid of. The only way to really cut yourself would be to slide “with” the blade across your face, like you’re slicing. Otherwise it’s honestly harder to cut yourself compared to a cartridge razor.
