I have been a wet shaver since 1951, and I have a collection of about 40 razors. My beard is medium heavy.
There has been one razor I have never been able to tame, the Schick Injector Type E. I have tried all kinds of suggestions with this aggressive razor, but success always eluded me. That was frustrating as the Type E from the 1930's is my birth decade razor, and I dearly love and get along well with all my other Schick Injectors.
I have discovered that I tend to shave fast. The arm strokes are fast and somewhat jerky, not smooth, slow, and deliberate. I have also learned that a jerky arm movement results in a very brief moment of hard pressure on the face, and that results in cuts and weepers, especially with an aggressive razor.
For the past several days I have been shaving with my Type E Schick Injector, and I have been making SLOW passes. I reduced the speed of the arm movement by at least 60%. The shaves with the aggressive Schick Injector Type E now have been 99% perfect and comfortable. And they also have been outstandingly close!
Shaving technique, like so many other things in life, is an ongoing learning experience.
