Hello All!
Hello! Let me share my story:
I have been dissatisfied with my Mach 3 for a very long time, and the company I work for has a "NO FACIAL HAIR POLICY" (I died and came back to the 1950's).
So I checked out numerous you tube videos and several posts on this site, and I ordered a flawed straight from Whipped dog. I also ordered the poor mans strop and brush and soap set.
But my impatient nature took over, and I went on a quest to find shaving supplies in brick and mortar stores. I live in Philadelphia, and for a major city, there is almost no shaving supplies beyond the can of goo and disposable razors. I was able to find a cheap soap, bowl and brush set in a drugstore.
So tonight marked my first quasi wet shave. I used the soap and brush set with my Mach 3. The lather wasnt as thick as I had hoped, maybe because of the boars hair brush, the soap, or my technique, or a combination of the three. I did 3 passes, rinsed and used an aftershave balm.
I must say I am pleased with the results, so is my fiancee! It was the smoothest shave I have ever had! It can only get better, once I get my straight and my badger brush!
I'm sure I will have numerous questions and observations once the rest of my equipment comes and I can do a full wet shave!
