Hi guys,
First off thank you for everyone contributing to this forum. Learned a lot just by browsing different threads.
I never knew what DE razor shaving was until about four months ago. My dad never really taught me anything about shaving. Anyway, purchased a muhle R89 frankly off a lark and a way to save money with disposable blades. Learned lots of things the hard way, a few rough shaves (razor burn from first go at it was pretty rough!) etc etc. lots of learning and improvement and it's a fantastic and unexpected adventure and improvement.
Still playing with technique and growth direction as part of my neck still can get razor bumps. . I used to loath shaving and still have a tendency to use pressure as a result of years of cartridge Mach3 (with its 15 blades or whatever!) usage.
Anyway, I have ventured around with various razors before settling on what I liked best. Here are my current setups. Pics are always fun so ignore the text and enjoy. In the end, I didn't save any money!! Haha. Best!
