So the idea of "buy it for life" is to buy items that are durable and last for a long time, things you could buy once and have your whole life, which can save money and be good for the environment

What are some of the top items you recommend for this?

Use either a hairclipper first or make head shaving a daily routine.
A fresh blade lessens irritation but increases the risk of nicks.
I prefer an evening shave to let eventual nicks or irritation settle down before work. I use an alum stone to stop the bleeding, if any.
When lazy I decide the hairclipper is good enough.
