Hello,
This is my second post after being a lurker for a few days.
I recently switched from Mach 3's and canned gels to SE, brush, and shaving soap shaving. I'm on my first week of SE shaving and I am gradually getting more comfortable, but still being very careful!!
I'm currently using a SE where you use a half of a DE blade. I started using it to shave in my cheek area above my beard, then one thing led to another and here I am, shaving not only my cheek area, but also under my jaw and my neck with the SE. My wife promised to get me a DOVO for my upcoming birthday. The Mrs also added that SE shaving will be good for the environment because there are no aerosol cans and dull disposables to throw away and that eventually we will save money on the straight razor. Plus she likes the fact that I am an old school sort of a guy.
By the way, I like the clever name for this forum. Thank you for the privilege of being a member of this forum.
