Do you have a "Test Shave Soap/Cream?"
The other day I did some I've never done before - try a new razor (7/8 SP Hart Steel) and a new Soap (Barrister & Mann - Seville) at the same time/shave.
it all turned out very well, in fact I stayed with the combo for a couple of days.
But I started thinking that might not have been a good idea - had it gone badly I would had more to decode.
My normal "test soap" when trying something for the first time is MWF.
I would be very interested to hear from gallery on the subject...
