I'm a relatively experienced, young shaver. I've tried almost every type of razor out there, and I'm currently using a Bump Fighter razor (the one with the guards on the blade). Throughout my years of shaving (only about 6) I've dealt with ingrown hairs. I've tried Bump Patrol aftershave, an alum block, Witch Hazel, an even tweezing to get rid of them. So far the only things that have helped are: using shaving soap and a single blade razor.
I've read that the BF basically gives you the same shave as a DE, and in my limited experience, this is true. I have a '73 SS (with the black handle), that I tried for a few weeks before I got the BF.
Basically, my question is: What will help my ingrown hairs better: sticking with the BF, or trying a DE?
