Newbie to DE razor!

[hahler2]

Thanks everyone. Got 2 shaves under my belt with the Merkur razor and my new shave cream. Still using the blades from target. Not in love with them. May try switching them out and see how a different one works for me. I think that some of it may be my technique. I'm doing a good job on my cheeks, chin, and upper lip. But my neck is giving me troubles getting a perfect shave. But I'll get there. Just takes some practice.

I am LOVING the experience and the switch to TOBS shaving cream. Smells great and my face feels better and much softer too!
