Hello, Gentlemen,
Decided to become part of the community. I started DE shaving 2 months ago, and this is the best decision in my life. The whole ritual, the post shave feel, my skin looks better, just amazing.
I still can't make very good shaves though, but I realize it's too early and I need to practice the technique. I started with Merkur 34C, green Proraso cream, also use the Proraso pre-shave, and now I got a pack to test 10 different blades.
I shave every other day. And yesterday I used feather blade. I can definitely say that my technique is good enough to keep myself alive and not slit my throat No big cuts up until now only small nicks from time to time.
But I am very, very far from BBS. I stuggle a lot with my chin and jawline. Have a very weird small spot on my chin, where my beard grow in a super strange direction. Visually it looks good but I feel it's not with my hand. I try to do standart 3 pass shave and and always a finishing touch.
I am sure my technique will become better with time, and I will continue test the different blades. Also looking on the web to get a soap, and thinking for adjustable razor, maybe Rockwell.
