Decided it was time to teach my 15yo son to shave this week - my wife had insisted I get him an electric (ugh now that I know better).
Fortunately he was somewhat interested in my safety razors so I grabbed a Rockwell 6s and we started. Started with an Astra blade and plate #1 but we quickly realized it wasn’t doing anything…switched to a 3 and he did great. Not a scratch on him, and we’ve now gone shopping for a nice shave brush (he picked one from Elite Razors) and next will be a bowl and his own razor.
For whatever reason my dad handed me an electric and said go and I didn’t want to do the same to him. He can choose it if he wants…but he seems to be into wet shaving. So far so good!
