First shave with a de super speed
Usually shave with a straight, but I wanted to give a de a shot. So i saw a good price on a super speed on eBay picked it up brought it home cleaned her up a lil Maas came out like new. I put a merkur de blade in her was still laying around from my days of the shavette, and I shaved with her. Ok now I'm hooked on all types of wet shaving. Some nicks on the neck but nothing crazy. I really didn't find it that difficult to shave with the de, maybe because I have been shaving with a straight for about a year. I feel that everybody should have a de in there shaving kit for a quick shave when u can't use your straight.. Just a great shave ... ;)

Anyway, congrats and happy shaving.
I went from a Mach 3 to a de before going to a sr. My first shave looked like I had acupuncture on my face... Just recently (after about 8 months of sr shaving) i thought I would try the old de again, after the shave I decided that I would teach my girlfriend to wet shave and stick to my straight due to me having acupuncture face again!!
