I started a club. I hope that some of you will drop by.

Cap Riding Affiliated Participants
Welcome to the Cap Riding Affiliated Participants. I searched to see if there was a club or brotherhood of people who like to ride the cap (also known as shallow angle shaving), but I couldn’t find one. So, I decided to start one. If one already exists that I somehow missed, I apologize and mods...

Joined your cult. Thanks for starting it

Thanks for joining. We few, the proud, who detest the feel of the safety bar, are the chosen ones.

Pre-shave: Neutrogena Hydro Boost
Brush: RR 400 butterscotch noir
Soap: Fendrihan unscented, mug loaded and lathered
Razor: RR Game Changer 68P
Blade: Gillette Nacet (1)
Number of passes: 2, XTG
Touchups or buffs: yes, in one area next to my Adam’s apple
Aftershave: Skin Bracer and Nivea Sensitive balm
Sting: None
Result: DFS (stubble ATG on neck)
Nice shave this morning. First time with Fendrihan unscented soap. I’ve used their smaller scented puck (50 g) before, so I have experience with it, but had to stop using it because my skin reacted to the fragrance. This shave was without incident, but the larger puck (100 g) was thirstier and took a little longer to get the lather right. It was pretty good, but I can do better next time. Good slickness and protection.

I‘m just not smart enough to have a safety bar or comb touch my skin without scraping the heck out of myself except for with the Travel Raptor SE or zamack post-2013 R41. And both neutral.
I joined your club of crappy shavers. This should be fun coming up with names for various post in the club. Are we going to have a temple and a pit?

Neutral and steep seem to irritate my skin, especially on my neck. Since my hair lies flat against my skin, I also think shallow saves me closer.
It’s funny, though, only now that I look back at it. The majority of my irritation for the first few months of DE shaving was from the soap irritating my face. I was too unsmart to realize that could even be a thing.
Learning hurts

Sometimes more than truth or love.
Me too, my friend. It was over a year of mild irritation and regular breakouts that I chalked up to technique that disappeared overnight when I started using soap without lanolin.

I thought it was technique errors. It was a vegan soap, so it wasn’t lanolin, but it must have been the fragrance. Other than Arko, I’m sticking to unscented soaps from now on.
Maybe then you should make your razors devettes as they were named here on B&B. I cannot remember who it was that removed the safety bar all together and called it that.
Actually the temple would be the CRAP house.

I like crappy jokes.Why is diarrhea hereditary?
It runs in your jeans.
Sorry, bad joke.
The comb or cap minimizes the thickness of the deli slices, Boris.
Though I do have some barber razors…
