Finally made the leap
« on: July 08, 2010, 10:29:16 PM »
Took the dive yesterday morning and I'm happy I did. Feels so much more comfortable now and I no longer have dandruff or itching! After much reviewing of tips and tricks provided by you guys, I decided to go with my Mach 3 that I had already WTG, Bald Guyz Shave Gel and Nivea Extreme Comfort Balm post shave. Excellent, irritation free experience  8)

Not quite sure how to shrink a pic so it'll fit but when I figure it out I'll do a before/after postup. b@n*

Congratulations on joining the sly brotherhood.  It doesn't sound like you are even going to need the 30 day rule!

Welcome to the fray!

Good choice of shave cream but I would try the new Schick Hydro 5 or 3. I use the 5 and absolutely love it.

Welcome to a happy, new world!!!  Glad you are with us.  I use the same gel and balm that you do--works GREAT.  Put a little aloe gel on after.....you will love the feel!!

Welcome Tree, you've made a great leap. Now keep it going. 
Sounds like you're routine is just fine, but there's plenty to experiment with.  O0
