Want to IMPROVE your DE shave?
Then buy a str8 and try to use it!!!!!!!!!:roflmao:
It's amazing. I have been using my Merkur HD for a while but decided to jump into the str8 razor world.
My first Str8 shave was a disaster which resulted in a cut that was hugely avoidable... oh well live and learn. What I found is that while using the Str8 you are eminently aware of blade angle, pressure, hair growth patterns as mistakes are somewhat more dire.
While letting the gash heal I would finish shaving with my DE and have been getting my best shaves yet.
So I may be a mediocre Str8 shaver (but improving Daily) but I am a damn fine DE shaver now!!!:)
