2 days of whisters = uncomfortable shave
I didn't shave for two days (skipped one morning) and it seemed like the razor was dull. It didn't want to cut nearly as well. FYI I used a different pre-shave. I used Neutrogena face srub. More of a soap than a pre-shave I think. I have been using Castle Forbes for a pre shave. I think I like the idea of using the Neutrogena and then the Castle Forbes.
The reasons I can think of for this shave being more difficult are 1. extra day of whiskers, or 2. different pre-shave or 3. razor edge needs work or 4. all of the above. :D
I'm going to shave again to remove remaining stubble. There is quite a bit and definitely needs another pass. Shaving an almost smooth face should shave more like I'm used to. I used warm foam from a scuttle. No towel or anything to increase heat for a couple of minutes.
Does anyone do anything different when they have 2-3 days of beard? Different pre-shave routine or anything? Warm towel? Let lather soak on face longer? Anything like that?
