i read a post from a member who was on a buying sabbatical and mentioned that it forced him to dial in his technique. He said, and I’m paraphrasing, a great shave is all technique and no pressure.
I took that to heart and have been using the same razor I always use (Rockwell 3C, Plate 3) and I’m using very little pressure. However I’m finding that I’m not getting super close shaves (I typically don’t like to shave against the grain. One with, one or two across usually does it). However the alum bar is telling me I’m doing something correctly.
Should I add a tad more pressure, or perhaps try to refine the angle of the razor or what?
Thanks.
