Thread: Advice and a story, from one beginner to another, or possibly several others.

It's just one of those things some swear by and some don't. No different than some love pre shave oil and some have no use for it. You experiment and find the products and techniques that work best for you. By perusing the forums you get an idea what others like and dislike but in the end you have to find your own way.

As they say in the marines-"its your face, it may look like many others but it's yours and yours alone, take care of it and it will take care of you.".

Great to hear of your success - well done.

I've tried the King of Shaves cream and couldn't get a bubble out of it, let alone a lather.
It just clogged up my brush!!

Glad the gel worked for you, though.

Hang on and enjoy the ride
