Hey Brian, how do you like your Shavemac in the finest grade of badger?madmedic said:
Cheers, DJ.
Hi DJ.
My Shavemac is lower end Finest. I am very pleased with it.Absolutely fantastic with creams. Although it is machine made......it is dense and very comfortable to use. With a cream it makes masses of lather...which stays where it is needed. Some of my other brushes seem to absorb the lather and need to be encouraged to release it on to my face. I don't use it on soaps. As it wasn't too expensive ....I had it personalised as well. It is definately one of my favourites. The link is below.
Regards
Brian

First time trying the adjustable. It's been sitting on my desk for a couple weeks but I've been playing around with the various DEs I've aquired. I was impressed. SUPER easy to use. Really, it's hard to mess up with this one. Just like using a cartridge razor. No nicks, cuts, weepers, or any irritation of any kind. My complaint is that I just couldn't get as close as with a DE. As Joel, said in another post, the adjustable thing is more gimmick on this one. I just set it in the middle and went to town. I'm not sure what to do with it now. I love how it shaves, but am not completely happe with the results. Worlds better than a cartridge, but only 80% as good as a good DE shave. Then again, it's worlds better than a DE shave gone bad. The other thing is that it doesn't feel like you're using something old, which I sort of missed. The CVS blades worked just fine. Grade: B+
