Thread: Trying Something New To Hone My Shavette Skills

For DE type shavettes, the stiffness of the blade is important. The flexibility of the blade and it's angle to the skin defines the shave quality on an individual face. Same with DE's. I use most types of razors and enjoy the differences. The Feather and the Kai are good shavers. I went back to the guarded blade in both. I use the Pro blade in my "Alumigoose" SE. Blade angle is a very important part of the shave. The blade should slide along almost flat the the skin. The method is to shear rather than scrape. Razor burn is usually caused by scraping, a too alkaline soap, or both.
YMMV!
