Dear all,
Not sure how you all got into 'quality shaving' but I happened to see some safety razor blades (Derby) whilst on holiday in Turkey - I bought them because they were quaint and so reasonably piced and then set about finding a razor to put them in - I'm always up for a challenge.
Once I found a good safety razor and tried it out, I wondered why I'd been previously conned into the latest gillette four or five blade per device, £10 per pack, little electric vibrating gizmo razors, when all along a single blade and quality safety razor does the job better and far more enjoyable. I've yet to try real shaving soap though (still using the stuff in a can - sorry!)
Can anyone advise on a good 'starter' soap that I should try? - I'm in the UK.
Best wishes
Dave
