Hey guys, my name is Andrew, and I am 24 years old. I actually started shaving with a DE about 6 months ago because I have really curly hair, and was prone to ingrown hairs.

I have a Merkur Classic, Classic HD, and a Futur. I have used a superlather of Williams soap and The Real Shaving Co Sensetive Skin cream.

I wanted to get something closer, and wanted to enjoy my shave more, so I thought it would be proper to try the straight razor.

I didn't want to drop a lot of coin at first because the DE is great in my opinion, and if I didnt like it, I wouldnt me out much. I decided to try using one of the Dovo SS Shavettes at first. I have had it for 2 weeks now, and have had amazing results. I wanted to get as close to a SE shave as I could get, so I use the the black insert with the long Dovo DE blades. I have been extremely impressed.

I figured I would start with a Shavette because I got a shave from a barber, and he used one. I believe that in NY, the barbers need to change the blades with each customer. This thing is amazing in my opinion. Yes, I slashed my face at first, but there is a learning curve with any SE shave.

So yes, I love the damn thing to death, and will continue to shave SE. I will be purchasing a nice Dovo blade soon because I feel that this is the absolute best shave for me.

Enough of me rambling......Get on with the shaving


Thanks,
Andrew
