Thread: First few shaves...

Welcome from up the road in Littleton. Playing with all of the variables in making great lather is fun. Enjoy the process.

This might help.

So, I got my first weeper the other day. I think the only reason I got it was because I had laser hair removal done on that specific area and forgot that the hair wouldn't shave correctly there. Well, I ended up doing multiple passes to get rid of the offensive hair and that is what caused it.

My lather making in the cup improved slightly but still isn't great. It'll get there one day.... lol. I'm loving my 6/8 Bismark from SRD so much. It does feel a little big sometimes so I think when I purchase my second razor it will be a 4/8 I guess. My Bizzy is a round tip and I'm fairly comfortable with using it although my technique needs to improve greatly. What other tip should I get if not a round? I like to rock a stash and small beard once in awhile.
