Hi i wanted to introduce myself.
I am Mathieu and i have been wet shaving since the age of 15. Last year december i switched from cardridge razors to a DE razor, more from environmental reasons than skin problems. I had ingrown hairs every now and then, and that stopped. Shaving with DE went so well that i am now shaving daily instead of twice a week.
I have a rockwell 6s razor and love it. I started with a Feather popular, which worked well but found it to light and mild. Also replaced my starting brush (bluebeard) for a razorock monster 26mm plissoft. And extenned the soap collection from 1 tube of proraso red to 2 MdC soaps, 4 Stirling soaps and a few samples, and recently won a few TFS soaps. I really enjoy the post shave feel of the Stirling soaps, unfortunatly since i live in the Netherlands a little expensive to purchase.
I tried several blades like Rockwell (dislike), Astra sp (dislike), Voskhod (really like it), Personna (excellent) and wilkinson sword (fine).
