Title: Hello from Jamaica
Post by: rookie1178 on February 15, 2014, 01:32:23 AM: I've been shaving my head and for over 10 years with my handy wahl clippers because I was always prone to razor bumps. I was tempted a few times last year to try out disposables that my big brother occasionally left in the shower, BUT I still got razor bumps every time.
It occurred to me finally that I wasn't doing it right and I started researching on the net. So from discovering the importance of mixing my own lather to the discovery of DE shaving, I can happily report that I've retired my clippers and I am now loving my shaving experience for the last 3 months(razor bumps be gone).

We don't need 4 or 5 blades to get a great, smooth shave, regardless of what Gillette says. I normally use a double blade cartridge on my HB sport, and it works way better than the new multi cartridges they are currently pushing. Enjoy the forum and keep the dome smooth. O0
