I had about 24 shaves from one in my Gillette Regent. In that razor, they're Nirvana. I kept forgetting to add some to my last three orders lol.
Nevermind.

Is it the amateuraso compared to the Proraso you normally enjoy?
The entire shave took about 15 minutes from the moment I walked into the bathroom to moment I left. That's less than half the time it normally takes me. Shaving may be neither a competition nor a race but the less time lathering, the less time with soap on my face and the less time with the razor on my skin the better my face likes it. A couple of missed hairs right on my adams apple. I'll get 'em next time.
When you make mistakes, its okay. Your body will make more blood to replace whats lost lol.
Becoming consistent. Great!
Yep. The grow-back the next day is more even too, and very comfortable with it.
Seven months since you've started this thread.
That means that at least seven months ago I mapped my beard and discovered that my hair actually grows south to north, up and over my right and left jawlines, yet it's only in the last two or three shaves that I've actually been shaving in the correct direction in those areas.
Knowing your map does help. Following it properly helps more. Now that you're paying closer attention to it, you'll start refining your technique. You may notice that as you start to focus more on the comfort of the shave, things may change as your technique evolves.
Seven months is pretty good. It took me that long just to get where I am with my MMOC, but I tend to learn things the hard way haha.
