    Talking Hi! I'm new here!!!

    Started out wif DE shaving not long ago but somehow I don't get BBS on my chin area. I bought myself a Feather Artist Club DX and it really shaves me well but I get a few cuts from the super sharp Feather blades.

    Very happy with my shaving gear right now..
    Feather AS-D1 + Feather Artist Club DX Specials + Omega boar brush
    thinking of upgrading to a better Badger brush when I got extra cash.

    Welcome to SRP Benkia. You should know that regular straights are more forgiving than feather straights. Maybe you can consider upgrading to a true straight instead of a new brush. There are many deals to be had in the classifieds.

    Welcome to the brotherhood of the blade. I second markevens' suggestion as to replacing the feather with a straight from the classifieds. Avoid the cheap temptations on eBay. Looking forward to hearing more, as you get deepter into it.
