None. What blade is the best for you?So, what would you guys say the best razor blades for a DE beginner be?
Edit: just saw that I already answered on this thread.
My opinion stays the same; I feel we're doing beginners a disservice by pointing them to "the best" blade. IMO it's better to recommend a sample pack from one of the vendors. Everyone is different, and while an experienced shaver can get a good shave with virtually every blade brand, a beginner should have the chance to find out the differences for himself.
They are in a class of their own. I don't think you can make a direct comparison between synthetic and animal hair brushes.Also, I'm curious as to how synthetic shaving brushes compare to natural boar or badger brushes in terms of lather, stiffness, etc.
There is a good synthetic review thread running on B&B right now ... contains a lot of great information.
