Hi all,
I'm wondering if anyone has found irritation appearing the day after they shave?
When I use a Mach 3 occasionally, I can get a close shave without applying much pressure, but like a lot of people, my neck area is quite sensitive. Generally, it'll show as soon as I've shaved as little red irritation spots all over. The next day though, I don't shave, and I can guarantee it'll be rather sore and itchy, with large red spots showing up on the throat.
Now generally speaking, when I use my DE (British #16 Aristocrat, gold, been DE shaving for a year now) I can get just as good a shave as before with the Mach 3, but with no irritation for the whole day (or very little on the neck), including the day after if i don't shave. Just the other day though I got Mach 3 symptoms after using the #16, and I can't think why (always same soap, blade, alum afterwards). Probably just 'one of those shaves', as they say.
I was just wondering if anyone has noticed similar effects the day AFTER they shave, when the hair is coming back through. It never lasts more than a day for me and there's no problems after that.
