Hey guys,
Just had my first shave ever using a DE blade. It felt really good on my face, but on my head it wasn't very smooth and I ended up with more razor burn than I get with a Gilette Fusion that I was using before (didn't get any burn before).
It was getting stuck a few times as well.
Pretty sure it's because of the angle I was using? Or my prep (or lack thereof)? Or the blades (I'm using Derby's)?
I only used olive oil + a gel shaving foam. I assume that that isn't enough, what are the best tools to use?
Also, I was wondering if this is worth it? The only three factors I care about are price, time (to finish) and effectiveness. The Gillette does pretty well on the first two, but the last one is pretty tough.
Is it worth for me to invest time into this? Purely on the basis of price, time and effectiveness?
Thanks!
