New +$100 shaving brush and now my razors are dull.
Question for beginners.
I have a new +$100 shaving brush and now my razors are dull.
What did I do wrong?
Old timers give the not so old time to think about this.

Teaching by quizzing perhaps... First a question then some thought
and since I do not know all the answers others can make fun of me when I tell
what solution I found.

What kind of toxic shave soap are you using?
I cant see the brush making a differance in your skin or turning your wiskers to hard steel.
Im stumped besides the soap but thats just my off the wall guess.It's just Sharpening, right?

Thanked: 38You've been making lots and lots of lather, what to do with all this lather? How many neighborhood cats have you shaved?

Thanked: 4828As a serious answer.
You have been lathering like crazy playing with your new brush. The exuberant exfoliation has cause what is often called brush burn. Which has left you with rather sensitive skin and made your razor feel like it is dull and giving you razor burn.It's not what you know, it's who you take fishing!

Thanked: 7Real brainteaser........
I'd guess your old brush was a stiff boar and loaded lots of soap to make for a great lather.
Your new brush is a super soft and floppy badger and is not loading enough soap.
The result: your lather with the +$100 is thin and watery by comparison to the boar. So now your razors are not cushioned and lubed well enough and feel blunter.

OP was totally channeling a very cool, intense mushroom trip - and has now completely forgot what he was thinking.
However, I do have the answer, and it is:
