    Default blades

    Hey guys first of all im using my mom's pseudo so take that weird look off your face before u keep reading lol, i noticed how much blades were costing and decided to use a razor that belonged to an uncle. I started using it three years ago at age 19 and am now able to shave without needing a styptic pencil. i will be happy to read your tips and experiences

    I take it you're talking about a straight razor when you say blade?

    OK, whilst the video shows an electric razor, as long you are getting the results you want it's all good.

    May I suggest a DE razor, they are cheap and easy enough to use and you will get a much better shave than an electric razor.

    When I went back to straight razors 18 months ago after 50 years, I watch GeoFatBoy's videos. His video quality is the best and his technique is simple yet very efficient. Watched his 3 pass video about 100 times and he really helped me with my technique and prep. Doesn't fill the audio with a lot of annoying BS.
