Hello folks,
I've been shaving for about 6 months with a DE Merkur 23c which I like.
I use Kai blades and a Kent soap, Cella cream or RazoRock soap, all with tallow in them.
I then apply an unscented aftershave balm.
I occasionally get slight redness/irritation on my neck. Using special lotions for redness such The Cool Fix doesn't really help. I might try witch hazel later....
Now, I heard very good things about the Merkur 37c slant razor. People say it cuts beard very easily requiring less passes for a BBS shave (I currently do 4 passes with my Merkur 23c). However I did talk to someone who said he had a bit of redness around the neck with it. My questions, is, according to what I explained earlier, do you think I could run into the same issue with this razor ? Does anybody had that redness in the neck issue using it ?
Thanks you !
