HI it's my first post ever on B&B!
I have been a cartridge and disposable razor users (mach 3 and Blue 2) and I really enjoy carefree and quick shaving. But now I am looking for more economic and durable alternatives for a long haul.
I recently got myself leaf twig as a transition from cartridge to safety razor. I have used for 7 times, but I really don't like it! got me lots of nicks, and it is so heavy to maintain the right angle. And because of fixed head, I got nicks on the chin area. And I have to constantly finding the right angle. So I am looking for a way out: Henson al13 or High proof razor
Henson al13: I like the fact that they claim it is a good transition from cartridge and hard to get a nick and almost no learning curve, and the price is reasonable. But it is not pivotal head
High proof: I like the pivotal head a lot coz mach 3 is my favourite and I really like carefree shaving. I don't care about the price if it can last for years, but I really don't find a lot of people buying it and I am a bit skeptical about how well can a small magnet hold the blade and not falling off with stronger pressure and when against the grain.
Can you give me some advice? which one should I go for?
thank you very much!!!
