I just started DE shaving and the first few shaves were with my Gillette gel from a can. This morning was my first shave with my own hand-made lather using Van Der Hagen Deluxe. My goodness what a difference. I don't think I ever want to use a can again. I even encouraged my wife and daughters to give the VDH a try.
I've been reading these forums for a few weeks and couldn't understand the cult-like following of shave soaps. Now I understand. So now I guess the next step will be to branch out and try some different soaps, but nfortunately I have no sense of smell due to a medical condition so I'm left with texture and effectiveness.
