Ok I jumped up the timetable and started last night with my first ever blade shave! Based on what I read here, I used a Mach 3 Disposable, Head Slick, and some cheaper after shave that I bought because the smelled reminded me of the barbershop when I was younger lol
It went great! Love the pivoting head on the Mach 3. Didn't have to put hardly any pressure on the blade. I only shaved with the grain this time. Got super smooth. If I don't bump up after a couple more shaves, then I'll try going against grain. Oh and I really like how Head Slick feels....
And now.. the pic:
