Hi everyone,
been wet shaving with the supermarket stuff for the last 30 years and shaving was a real chore. So much so I only did it once per week.
Just received my new Merkur 34C razor and had my first DE shave. Awesome and no nicks. I used some Sommersets oil instead of cream and am waiting for some better cream. I hope the experience will be even better.
One question though. I only shaved with the grain. With the 300 blade Gillette razor I used to use I shaved in every which direction - with/across/against the grain. If I rub my hand up the side of my face (against the grain) it still feels rough. How do I improve?
Thanks
