So, I’m kind of in a pickle. I’ve been using my new 6S for a week now with my go-to blade: Treet Platinum.
Here’s my conundrum. The razor is very smooth and mild, extremely easy to shave with, but I think it sort of tames my already mild-ish blade. the sweet spot plate for me is R3, going higher begins irritating my very sensitive face. But, plate R3 doesn’t give me the closeness I’m looking for without way too much touch-up action, which begins to irritate my face. I love the overall feel of the razor but I don’t think the Treet Platinum performs well enough with a milder plate.
Has anyone else found the same issue with your chosen blades? Where the razor tames it too much? Did you have better luck with a different blade, and if so which?
Maybe the razor just isn’t for me, who knows. Maybe I just want it to work out more than I should, and should chalk it up to failed experimentation. Who knows.
