I think the shave is great, I look forward to shaving now, even waking up another half hour early for work. I imagine that time will start to decrease a little more as I get better. I am still afraid to go against the grain, so It takes a while (1-3 passes) to get certain spots great. I came from about 3 years of electric shaving constantly getting next day whiteheads, having to go over the same spot 10-15 times (not against the grain) and the worst shaves ever. Would have to shave everyday, like most of you I am assuming, I work in a professional office setting and engage with clients, so whiteheads, beards, etc are unacceptable at least in my opinion they are. I would like to preface this with I have moderate acne and severely sensitive skin. I would like to find out what works best or the best way to prevent whiteheads, etc with Sensitive skin and an extremely thick beard. Recently I have been getting white heads that haven't surfaced, I could prob pop with a pin but don't want to do that.
My method of attack so far:
Merkur Heavy Duty Double Edge Razor #34C
Merkur Double Edge Razor blades (10pack) Almost went through them and was pretty satisfied with the shave.
Proraso Shaving Soap, Eucalyptus & Menthol, (Jar, I mix it directly in there)
Escali 100% Pure Badger Shaving Brush (my first one, it was cheap, are they all supposed to shed their hair?)
After shave CREAM to follow up in next post, its at my house and I dont know the name, its nothing special.
Just received in the mail and used a couple times so far, not sure how I feel about them:
100 Astra Superior Premium Platinum DE Safety Razor Blades (Had great reviews on amazon so decided I'd try them, may not be sharp enough for my beard).
Proraso Shave Soap, Sensitive Jar
Proraso Shaving Cream, Eucalyptus & Menthol (Tube, I wanted to try a lather in a mug, it wasn't so thick and I used more than a quarter size amount, I thought it was the worst lather I had so far in my wet shave experience)
Any suggestions for me would be greatly appreciative, and I could provide suggestions for things like hunting, fishing, outdoor stuff, etc.. Lol
Thank you so much...
