Alum only have tried it a week now should be in every new shavers toolbag
take it slow don't change to much at once. Variables will drive you mad.

I get Closer Shaves.
It Used to Be Cheaper Too, But Somehow Razors/Soaps/ETC Started showing up at my Doorstep.
It Happened Shortly after Money Began Disappearing.
Its Worth it.

Buying/Trying new stuff is fun but no gear or software will make you more skilled. Once your technique gets better - go nuts. (Man, did I go nuts )
