Second SR shave and first DE completion
Well,
I'll explain the title.
Because I cut myself being to enthousiastic the first attempt, I decided to listen to the advice given by multiple people, first sideburns with and SR, rest is for later.
Last time I used my fusion to complete the shave, now I did it with a Merkur.
Hence the title.
Well, the SR with the right hand went very good, well, at least i thought so, on the second try.
The left was annoteer story, I couldn't get the angle right, I went over a small piece of skin and the hairs weren't cut very good. Not wanting to tempt fate, I decided to leave the SR and continue with the DE.
First of all, a little question. Is it possible to put a blade in a DE razor upsidedown? Or doesn't it matter? Not that I think I did, just want to be certain everything is ok.
The shave itself went surprisingly good. No cuts, ni nicks. I was a bit afraid because my brother once told me he would rather try a SR the na DE razor because he tried a DE once and had nothing but cuts. So it must have been a very wrong technique.
I also tried alun for the first time. It does sting a bit, but I don't look like an Indian dancing around a campfire, so it went right I think.
The result is far from perfect, but I'm very pleased with the shave.
The zen part is starting to make sense.Sometimes I feel normal.
Then it's time to lay down and wait for it to pass.
