Hi,
I have been using a Merkur 38C for about 6 months now and i am having very mixed results. My prep:-
heat large cappuccino mug and badger brush,
exfoliate or gental soap wash, if in shower i use a bit of hair conditioner.
rinse, lather up using either TOBS, proraso, body shop and leave for 1 min. using Derby blades, WTG, XTG, ATG. moisturise and EDT.
The problem is the inconsistent shave on my neck area. i find the blade tends to skip or jump sometimes despite holding the skin down, this leads to an irritated neck. I then resort to using the Gillett fusion which sorts things out after a few days.
I dont have a thick beared and have tried different blades. feathers tend to be the worst.
my question is, if i bought a progress or futur, will the adjustability help?
I love my DE but it hates my neck after a few shaves.
thanks in advance
