I’ve always used Gillete Fusion with Nivea gel but want to get into using a straight double edge blade shaving - I’m not happy with the lack of clean shave feel & cartridges are a small mortgage payment over time.
Since I’m a rookie I don’t want to break the bank. I bought a brush now for the razor handle: would you recommend one that is adjustable or non-adjustable?
Also, because I wear dress shirts for work my neck seems to get irritated due to collar so was going to try Barbosol orange for sensitive skin.
I found using baby powder on my neck helped a lot to cut the irritation from the shirts. Is this still good or do you recommend an alternative now that I’m going this route? I tried the Gillette gel aftershave gel and this just seems to make the irritation worse.
Sorry in advance if my inquiries above seem stupid - never had anyone explain this route of shaving before.
