My 1963 (my birthyear) Gillette Slim Adjustable came today! And I couldn't wait to try it out.Razor: Gillette Slim AdjustableBlade: AstraBrush: Semogue 1470 Natural BoarCream: Proraso mixed with a little Shave SecretAfter: Aquavelva ClassicI'm not sure if this is my imagination or just my excitement over the new razor, but this has possibly been my best head shave to date. And I'm not even sure how to use the thing. I set it to 3 and it was fantastic. Can anyone give me some tips on using the settings? If I got a great shave on a 3, would I want to try going higher?
@BlueBriz: Yes... the Mongoose razor has been a game changer for me. I have beenusing it almost exclusively since September 2014. I get incredible face and domeshaves with it every single time. Sorry to hear that it is not working for you. I hopethat you don't give up on it. What kind did you get? Did you get the mirror finish? Or the satin finish?WARHAWK
