On a whim yesterday (because I was late for work actually) I skipped the WTG pass and went with across and against with some light buffing hoping to get a reasonable shave in a short time. To my surprise it was not only faster, but more comfortable and almost as good as a full 3-pass with buffing. Certainly more that satisfactory for the office.
I'd recently taken a break from using alum because I thought it no longer necessary, but having developed a few extra ingrowns recently I've started again. Normally after a full 3+ pass shave I'd have an appreciable amount of sting. After this 2+ shave there was only a tiny bit of sting in my difficult patches at the chin/lip crease. Very surprised.
Anyone else share this experience?
