Don't worry, we don't always get what Paul is saying either.

I've seen you lurke around for a while.  Thanks for posting up a few posts today!

By the way, what is a DE?  It's the end of the day and I'm not thinking straight... :px :/O
No problem posting.  I hope I can add something useful once in awhile.

DE is short for Double Edge razor.  Old school razors like our dad's used to use.  Not quite as dangerous as a straight razor but they do take some practice to use.  Here is a pic http://www.classicshaving.com/catalog/item/522941/1888174.htm

AaaahhhhhH!!  I know what you're talking about now.

Wazzup Medman.  It's difficult working two boards, I try to post on both (when I have something to say).  I've been thinking of giving the DE a try, just haven't worked up the nerve.
Hey Medic!  I know it is difficult to work two boards, that's probably why I have never posted here plus I post at beardcommunity.com  so that's 3 to keep up with!

Give the DE a try, at least on the face.  They give the closest shave ever after a little practice.  Plus the blades are very cheap!

Funny thing is, when I first started shaving my face, it was using Dad's DE.  Not sure I taught myself the "correct" way to do it, but I don't remember ever really cutting myself, none serious anyway.  I suspect doing the head would be quite time consuming, unless one became serious & consistent about using the DE.

Using the Sensor Excel, gets me a lot closer than any other I've tried though I still have to shave daily if I want to keep the smooth look and feel.  Seems to cause less irritation when I go against the grain.

I am a rookie at this but I use the head blade with the triple blade. I had no nicks. I still find it tricky to get it as close as I want.

Thanks

If you have the adapter for it, try the Atra blades or the Sensor. I used the Sensor for the first time this morning and loved it.

This is my first time to post here, and I also use HeadBlade. When I first got it I used it with the headblade triple blade that came with it. After that I used the Atra Blades for a little while and didn't really care for them. I just used the Sensor blade for the first time and I loved it. The best shave that I've had yet by far (aside from the triple blade that came with the headblade)

Welcome Weaver!!  Thanks for sharing that with us.  Feel free to post up an introduction in the introductions board.
