    I've been wrong twice, but I've been with my third wife for ten years and am still thrilled to be with her every day. You've got to find someone special to be willing to try again after the mess I went through with the first two.

    If you're getting razor burn, something is not right and BBS is pointless if it's at the price of razor burn. It's either your prep, your technique (your angle), or your razor. Do you have more than one razor? Are you having the same problem with more than one razor? How long has it been since your razor(s) was(were) honed? Are you stropping adequately? I think in general when the razor gets duller there is a tendency to press harder, which will also cause razor burn.

    How steep of an angle are you talking about? In general the gap between your skin and the spine should be one to two spine widths. Is your shaving angle significantly steeper than that?
