    Default Almost Perfect Shave

    Well, lucky shave #3 for me this AM. May have been the electric kettle that now finds a permanent home in my bathroom,(Received two for Christmas)or the much better lather after re-watching Mantic`s vids, or the corking of my Merkur blades. Not a nick, no irritation on the neck ,and the shave, while not BBS, looks and feels great.

    I also mapped my facial hair and switched direction on the neck. ;)

    Thanks B&B and Mantic59!

    That's good to hear. It always makes me smile when I read about people having electric devices in their bathrooms. Our govenment has seen fit to ban any power within about 1 square mile of any water so I have to rely on my scuttle.

    bbs is a great place to get but on most days i would take a dfs and be more than happy.

    Thanks for the well wishes guys.
    I think the toughest thing to master is to not apply pressure after being brainwashed with so many years of cartridge shaves.

    Yes when I shave sometimes the image from the movie Predator comes to mind when the bic head is broken off on the face, and I remember easy does it. Welcome to B&B!
